Book Felix Hausdorff   Gesammelte Werke Band 5

Download or read book Felix Hausdorff Gesammelte Werke Band 5 written by Felix Hausdorff and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001 with total page 939 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Band 5 umfaßt die Themenbereiche Astronomie, Optik und Wahrscheinlichkeitstheorie. Er enthält Hausdorffs Dissertation über die Refraktion des Lichtes in der Atmosphäre, zwei Folgearbeiten zum gleichen Thema sowie die Habilitationsschrift über die Extinktion des Lichtes in der Atmosphäre. Es folgt eine Arbeit über geometrische Optik, die unmittelbar an die berühmte Publikation von H. Bruns über das Eikonal anschließt und in der Hausdorff die damals ganz neuen Lieschen Theorien für die Optik nutzbar zu machen suchte. Auf dem Gebiet der Stochastik veröffentlichte Hausdorff zwei längere Arbeiten, die in verschiedenen Bereichen der Versicherungsmathematik und der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung ihre Spuren hinterlassen haben. Von besonderem historischen Interesse sind die im Band publizierten Stücke aus Hausdorffs Nachlaß, etwa seine Vorlesung "Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung" vom Sommersemester 1923 oder seine Briefe an Richard von Mises aus dem Jahre 1919.

Book Felix Hausdorff   Gesammelte Werke Band IA

Download or read book Felix Hausdorff Gesammelte Werke Band IA written by Ulrich Felgner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-02-23 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der Band 1A beginnt mit einem Vorwort zur Gesamtedition. Den Hauptteil des Bandes bilden Hausdorffs Arbeiten über geordnete Mengen aus den Jahren 1901-1909. Diese haben der Entwicklung der Mengenlehre nachhaltige Impulse verliehen. Sie enthalten zahlreiche für die Untersuchung geordneter Mengen grundlegende neue Begriffe sowie tiefliegendere Resultate. Alle diese Arbeiten sind sorgfältig kommentiert. Die Kommentare zeigen, dass einige von Hausdorff's Ideen und Resultaten für die moderne Grundlagenforschung hochaktuell sind. Ferner enthält der Band Hausdorff's kritische Besprechung von Russells "The Principles of Mathematics", aus dem Nachlass seine Vorlesung "Mengenlehre" von 1901 (eine der ersten Vorlesungen über dieses Gebiet überhaupt) sowie einen Essay "Hausdorff als akademischer Lehrer".

Download or read book Set Theory written by Felix Hausdorff and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a translation into English of the Third Edition of the classic German language work Mengenlehre by Felix Hausdorff published in 1937. From the Preface (1937): “The present book has as its purpose an exposition of the most important theorems of the theory of sets, along with complete proofs, so that the reader should not find it necessary to go outside this book for supplementary details while, on the other hand, the book should enable him to undertake a more detailed study of the voluminous literature on the subject. The book does not presuppose any mathematical knowledge beyond the differential and integral calculus, but it does require a certain maturity in abstract reasoning; qualified college seniors and first year graduate students should have no difficulty in making the material their own … The mathematician will … find in this book some things that will be new to him, at least as regards formal presentation and, in particular, as regards the strengthening of theorems, the simplification of proofs, and the removal of unnecessary hypotheses.”

Book The Secret Formula

  • Author : Fabio Toscano
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press

  • ISBN : 0691264880
  • Pages : 176 pages

Download or read book The Secret Formula written by Fabio Toscano and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-12-03 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legendary Renaissance math duel that ushered in the modern age of algebra The Secret Formula tells the story of two Renaissance mathematicians whose jealousies, intrigues, and contentious debates led to the discovery of a formula for the solution of the cubic equation. Niccolò Tartaglia was a talented and ambitious teacher who possessed a secret formula—the key to unlocking a seemingly unsolvable, two-thousand-year-old mathematical problem. He wrote it down in the form of a poem to prevent other mathematicians from stealing it. Gerolamo Cardano was a physician, gifted scholar, and notorious gambler who would not hesitate to use flattery and even trickery to learn Tartaglia's secret. Set against the backdrop of sixteenth-century Italy, The Secret Formula provides new and compelling insights into the peculiarities of Renaissance mathematics while bringing a turbulent and culturally vibrant age to life. It was an era when mathematicians challenged each other in intellectual duels held outdoors before enthusiastic crowds. Success not only enhanced the winner's reputation, but could result in prize money and professional acclaim. After hearing of Tartaglia's spectacular victory in one such contest in Venice, Cardano invited him to Milan, determined to obtain his secret by whatever means necessary. Cardano's intrigues paid off. In 1545, he was the first to publish a general solution of the cubic equation. Tartaglia, eager to take his revenge by establishing his superiority as the most brilliant mathematician of the age, challenged Cardano to the ultimate mathematical duel. A lively account of genius, betrayal, and all-too-human failings, The Secret Formula reveals the epic rivalry behind one of the fundamental ideas of modern algebra.

Book Lipman Bers  a Life in Mathematics

Download or read book Lipman Bers a Life in Mathematics written by Linda Keen and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is part biography and part collection of mathematical essays that gives the reader a perspective on the evolution of an interesting mathematical life. It is all about Lipman Bers, a giant in the mathematical world who lived in turbulent and exciting times. It captures the essence of his mathematics, a development and transition from applied mathematics to complex analysis--quasiconformal mappings and moduli of Riemann surfaces--and the essence of his personality, a progression from a young revolutionary refugee to an elder statesman in the world of mathematics and a fighter for global human rights and the end of political torture. The book contains autobiographical material and short reprints of his work. The main content is in the exposition of his research contributions, sometimes with novel points of view, by students, grand-students, and colleagues. The research described was fundamental to the growth of a central part of 20th century mathematics that, now in the 21st century, is in a healthy state with much current interest and activity. The addition of personal recollections, professional tributes, and photographs yields a picture of a man, his personal and professional family, and his time.

  • ISBN : 069116777X
  • Pages : 436 pages

Download or read book What s Next written by Dylan Thurston and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Thurston (1946-2012) was one of the great mathematicians of the twentieth century. He was a visionary whose extraordinary ideas revolutionized a broad range of mathematical fields, from foliations, contact structures, and Teichm ller theory to automorphisms of surfaces, hyperbolic geometry, geometrization of 3-manifolds, geometric group theory, and rational maps. In addition, he discovered connections between disciplines that led to astonishing breakthroughs in mathematical understanding as well as the creation of entirely new fields. His far-reaching questions and conjectures led to enormous progress by other researchers. What's Next? brings together many of today's leading mathematicians to describe recent advances and future directions inspired by Thurston's transformative ideas. Including valuable insights from his colleagues and former students, What's Next? discusses Thurston's fundamental contributions to topology, geometry, and dynamical systems and includes many deep and original contributions to the field. This incisive and wide-ranging book also explores how he introduced new ways of thinking about and doing mathematics, innovations that have had a profound and lasting impact on the mathematical community as a whole.
