Download or read book Concrete Mathematics written by Ronald L. Graham and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 1994-02-28 with total page 811 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the mathematics that supports advanced computer programming and the analysis of algorithms. The primary aim of its well-known authors is to provide a solid and relevant base of mathematical skills - the skills needed to solve complex problems, to evaluate horrendous sums, and to discover subtle patterns in data. It is an indispensable text and reference not only for computer scientists - the authors themselves rely heavily on it! - but for serious users of mathematics in virtually every discipline. Concrete Mathematics is a blending of CONtinuous and disCRETE mathematics. "More concretely," the authors explain, "it is the controlled manipulation of mathematical formulas, using a collection of techniques for solving problems." The subject matter is primarily an expansion of the Mathematical Preliminaries section in Knuth's classic Art of Computer Programming, but the style of presentation is more leisurely, and individual topics are covered more deeply. Several new topics have been added, and the most significant ideas have been traced to their historical roots. The book includes more than 500 exercises, divided into six categories. Complete answers are provided for all exercises, except research problems, making the book particularly valuable for self-study. Major topics include: Sums Recurrences Integer functions Elementary number theory Binomial coefficients Generating functions Discrete probability Asymptotic methods This second edition includes important new material about mechanical summation. In response to the widespread use of the first edition as a reference book, the bibliography and index have also been expanded, and additional nontrivial improvements can be found on almost every page. Readers will appreciate the informal style of Concrete Mathematics. Particularly enjoyable are the marginal graffiti contributed by students who have taken courses based on this material. The authors want to convey not only the importance of the techniques presented, but some of the fun in learning and using them.
Download or read book Thinking Algebraically An Introduction to Abstract Algebra written by Thomas Q. Sibley and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thinking Algebraically presents the insights of abstract algebra in a welcoming and accessible way. It succeeds in combining the advantages of rings-first and groups-first approaches while avoiding the disadvantages. After an historical overview, the first chapter studies familiar examples and elementary properties of groups and rings simultaneously to motivate the modern understanding of algebra. The text builds intuition for abstract algebra starting from high school algebra. In addition to the standard number systems, polynomials, vectors, and matrices, the first chapter introduces modular arithmetic and dihedral groups. The second chapter builds on these basic examples and properties, enabling students to learn structural ideas common to rings and groups: isomorphism, homomorphism, and direct product. The third chapter investigates introductory group theory. Later chapters delve more deeply into groups, rings, and fields, including Galois theory, and they also introduce other topics, such as lattices. The exposition is clear and conversational throughout. The book has numerous exercises in each section as well as supplemental exercises and projects for each chapter. Many examples and well over 100 figures provide support for learning. Short biographies introduce the mathematicians who proved many of the results. The book presents a pathway to algebraic thinking in a semester- or year-long algebra course.

Download or read book Supplementary Material and Solutions Manual for Mathematical Modeling in the Environment written by Charles R. Hadlock and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual is meant to provide supplementary material and solutions to the exercises used in Charles Hadlock's textbook, Mathematical Modeling in the Environment. The manual is invaluable to users of the textbook as it contains complete solutions and often further discussion of essentially every exercise the author presents in his book. This includes both the mathematical/computational exercises as well as the research questions and investigations. Since the exercises in the textbook are very rich in content, (rather than simple mechanical problems), and cover a wide range, most readers will not have the time to work out every one on their own. Readers can thus still benefit greatly from perusing solutions to problems they have at least thought about briefly. Students using this manual still need to work out solutions to research questions using their own sources and adapting them to their own geographic locations, or to numerical problems using their own computational schemes, so this manual will be a useful guide to students in many course contexts. Enrichment material is included on the topics of some of the exercises. Advice for teachers who lack previous environmental experience but who want to teach this material is also provided and makes it practical for such persons to offer a course based on these volumes. This book is the essential companion to Mathematical Modeling in the Environment.
