Download or read book Foundations of Higher Mathematics written by Daniel M. Fendel and published by Addison Wesley. This book was released on 1990 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foundations of Higher Mathematics: Exploration and Proof is the ideal text to bridge the crucial gap between the standard calculus sequence and upper division mathematics courses. The book takes a fresh approach to the subject: it asks students to explore mathematical principles on their own and challenges them to think like mathematicians. Two unique features-an exploration approach to mathematics and an intuitive and integrated presentation of logic based on predicate calculus-distinguish the book from the competition. Both features enable students to own the mathematics they're working on. As a result, your students develop a stronger motivation to tackle upper-level courses and gain a deeper understanding of concepts presented.
Download or read book Foundations of Higher Mathematics written by Peter Fletcher and published by Brooks/Cole. This book was released on 1987 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text introduces students to basic techniques of writing proofs and acquaints them with some fundamental ideas. The authors assume that students using this text have already taken courses in which they developed the skill of using results and arguments that others have conceived. This text picks up where the others left off -- it develops the students' ability to think mathematically and to distinguish mathematical thinking from wishful thinking.

Download or read book Foundations for Higher Mathematics written by Wendell Motter and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook prepares students for the more abstract mathematics courses that follow calculus. Appropriate for self-study or for use in courses called transition courses, this text introduces students to proof techniques, analyzing proofs, and writing proofs of their own. Written in a clear, conversational style, this book provides a solid introduction to such topics as the real number system, logic, set theory, mathematical induction, relations, functions, and continuity. It is also a good reference text that students can use when writing or reading proofs in their more advanced courses.

Download or read book Proofs and Fundamentals written by Ethan D. Bloch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to help students write mathematics better. Throughout it are large exercise sets well-integrated with the text and varying appropriately from easy to hard. Basic issues are treated, and attention is given to small issues like not placing a mathematical symbol directly after a punctuation mark. And it provides many examples of what students should think and what they should write and how these two are often not the same.

Book excerpt: This engaging math textbook is designed to equip students who have completed a standard high school math curriculum with the tools and techniques that they will need to succeed in upper level math courses. Topics covered include logic and set theory, proof techniques, number theory, counting, induction, relations, functions, and cardinality.
Download or read book Fundamentals of Advanced Mathematics 1 written by Henri Bourles and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-07-10 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This precis, comprised of three volumes, of which this book is the first, exposes the mathematical elements which make up the foundations of a number of contemporary scientific methods: modern theory on systems, physics and engineering. This first volume focuses primarily on algebraic questions: categories and functors, groups, rings, modules and algebra. Notions are introduced in a general framework and then studied in the context of commutative and homological algebra; their application in algebraic topology and geometry is therefore developed. These notions play an essential role in algebraic analysis (analytico-algebraic systems theory of ordinary or partial linear differential equations). The book concludes with a study of modules over the main types of rings, the rational canonical form of matrices, the (commutative) theory of elemental divisors and their application in systems of linear differential equations with constant coefficients. - Part of the New Mathematical Methods, Systems, and Applications series - Presents the notions, results, and proofs necessary to understand and master the various topics - Provides a unified notation, making the task easier for the reader. - Includes several summaries of mathematics for engineers
Download or read book Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity written by Pavel Pudlák and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-22 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two main themes of this book, logic and complexity, are both essential for understanding the main problems about the foundations of mathematics. Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity covers a broad spectrum of results in logic and set theory that are relevant to the foundations, as well as the results in computational complexity and the interdisciplinary area of proof complexity. The author presents his ideas on how these areas are connected, what are the most fundamental problems and how they should be approached. In particular, he argues that complexity is as important for foundations as are the more traditional concepts of computability and provability. Emphasis is on explaining the essence of concepts and the ideas of proofs, rather than presenting precise formal statements and full proofs. Each section starts with concepts and results easily explained, and gradually proceeds to more difficult ones. The notes after each section present some formal definitions, theorems and proofs. Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity is aimed at graduate students of all fields of mathematics who are interested in logic, complexity and foundations. It will also be of interest for both physicists and philosophers who are curious to learn the basics of logic and complexity theory.

Download or read book Practical Foundations of Mathematics written by Paul Taylor and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-05-13 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the basis of mathematical reasoning both in pure mathematics itself (particularly algebra and topology) and in computer science (how and what it means to prove correctness of programs). It contains original material and original developments of standard material, so it is also for professional researchers, but as it deliberately transcends disciplinary boundaries and challenges many established attitudes to the foundations of mathematics, the reader is expected to be open minded about these things.

Download or read book Foundations of Real and Abstract Analysis written by Douglas S. Bridges and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1998 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete course on metric, normed, and Hilbert spaces, including many results and exercises seldom found in texts on analysis at this level. The author covers an unusually wide range of material in a clear and concise format, including elementary real analysis, Lebesgue integration on R, and an introduction to functional analysis. The book begins with a fast-paced course on real analysis, followed by an introduction to the Lebesgue integral. This provides a reference for later chapters as well as a preparation for students with only the typical sequence of undergraduate calculus courses as prerequisites. Other features include a chapter introducing functional analysis, the Hahn-Banach theorem and duality, separation theorems, the Baire Category Theorem, the Open Mapping Theorem and their consequences, and unusual applications. Of special interest are the 750 exercises, many with guidelines for their solutions, applications and extensions of the main propositions and theorems, pointers to new branches of the subject, and difficult challenges for the very best students.
