Download or read book Mathematics Almost Everywhere In Memory Of Solomon Marcus written by Alexandra Bellow and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a collection of original papers, research and surveys, dedicated to the memory of the Romanian mathematician Solomon Marcus (1925-2016). Marcus published many papers and books in mathematical analysis, theoretical computer science, mathematical linguistics, poetics, theory of literature, semiotics, and several other fields less strongly connected to mathematics, like cultural anthropology, biology, history and philosophy of science, education. He exemplified an unimaginable richness of ideas.This volume intends to emphasize the mathematical fields in which Solomon Marcus worked, and demonstrate — as he also did — the interconnection between them. The authors who contribute to this volume are well-known experts in their fields. Most of them knew Solomon Marcus well, some even owed him for his decisive impulses for their careers and general development. With articles in so diverse areas, the volume will attract readers who would like to diversify their own knowledge or find unexpected connections with other topics.

Download or read book Mathematics Everywhere written by Félix González and published by Félix Enrique González Solano. This book was released on with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of my students ask me at some point, and this where will it serve me? Especially when we see more abstract mathematical ideas for them, such as the calculation of roots of a polynomial. Someone even made a joke by saying "no way I go to the store and tell the lady to sell me of rice". It must be said that, in large part, this lack of connection of mathematics with the reality of the common person (this does not happen with those who study the career of mathematics) is due to some extent to a bad design in the plans and programs of study from the basic level, to the upper level, where preference is given to the teaching of algorithms instead of showing the beauty of mathematics that occurs through thought. So, the main objective of this text, is to bring the ordinary person to the math and show that, in fact, is presented everywhere (literally), that wherever you go or whatever you do, all is related to mathematics. It would not be bad for the reader to do the exercise of imagining what his life would be like without mathematics, because, for example, this would affect the transportation system, the communications system, the Internet would not exist without mathematics. Throughout the book we will see a variety of examples in everyday life where mathematics is used. I do not have the biggest doubt that the reader will be surprised at the many uses of mathematics that he learns in school. Obviously, a book is not enough to show how mathematics is everywhere, in everything we do, even in the way we think, but it is a little introduction and maybe, in the future, we can write a second part with more examples, as beautiful as the ones I show here.

Download or read book It s a Numberful World written by Eddie Woo and published by The Experiment. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2021 Mathical Honor Book Why aren’t left-handers extinct? What makes a rainbow round? How is a pancreas . . . like a pendulum? Publisher's note: It's a Numberful World was published in Australia under the title Woo's Wonderful World of Maths. These may not look like math questions, but they are—because they all have to do with patterns. And mathematics, at heart, is the study of patterns. That realization changed Eddie Woo’s life—by turning the “dry” subject he dreaded in high school into a boundless quest for discovery. Now an award-winning math teacher, Woo sees patterns everywhere: in the “branches” of blood vessels and lightning, in the growth of a savings account and a sunflower, even in his morning cup of tea! Here are twenty-six bite-size chapters on the hidden mathematical marvels that encrypt our email, enchant our senses, and even keep us alive—from the sine waves we hear as “music” to the mysterious golden ratio. This book will change your mind about what math can be. We are all born mathematicians—and It’s a Numberful World.

Download or read book A Dingo Ate My Math Book written by Burkard Polster and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2017-12-27 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Dingo Ate My Math Book presents ingenious, unusual, and beautiful nuggets of mathematics with a distinctly Australian flavor. It focuses, for example, on Australians' love of sports and gambling, and on Melbourne's iconic, mathematically inspired architecture. Written in a playful and humorous style, the book offers mathematical entertainment as well as a glimpse of Australian culture for the mathematically curious of all ages. This collection of engaging stories was extracted from the Maths Masters column that ran from 2007 to 2014 in Australia's Age newspaper. The maths masters in question are Burkard Polster and Marty Ross, two (immigrant) Aussie mathematicians, who each week would write about math in the news, providing a new look at old favorites, mathematical history, quirks of school mathematics—whatever took their fancy. All articles were written for a very general audience, with the intention of being as inviting as possible and assuming a minimum of mathematical background.
Download or read book Fractals Everywhere written by Michael F. Barnsley and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fractals Everywhere, Second Edition covers the fundamental approach to fractal geometry through iterated function systems. This 10-chapter text is based on a course called "Fractal Geometry", which has been taught in the School of Mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology. After a brief introduction to the subject, this book goes on dealing with the concepts and principles of spaces, contraction mappings, fractal construction, and the chaotic dynamics on fractals. Other chapters discuss fractal dimension and interpolation, the Julia sets, parameter spaces, and the Mandelbrot sets. The remaining chapters examine the measures on fractals and the practical application of recurrent iterated function systems. This book will prove useful to both undergraduate and graduate students from many disciplines, including mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, psychology, mechanical, electrical, and aerospace engineering, computer science, and geophysical science.
