Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In two of my previous published books, “Two hundred conjectures and one hundred and fifty open problems on Fermat pseudoprimes”, respectively “Conjectures on primes and Fermat pseudoprimes, many based on Smarandache function”, I already expressed my passion for integer numbers, especially for primes and Fermat pseudoprimes, fascinating numbers that seem to be a little bit more willing to let themselves ordered and understood than the prime numbers.
Download or read book Sequences of Primes Obtained by the Method of Concatenation Collected Papers written by Marius Coman and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2016 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to show that the method of concatenation can be a powerful tool in number theory and, in particular, in obtaining possible infinite sequences of primes. Part One of this book, “Primes in Smarandache concatenated sequences and Smarandache-Coman sequences of primes” , contains 12 papers on various sequences of primes that are distinguished among the terms of the well known Smarandache concatenated sequences. The sequences presented in this part are related to concatenation in three different ways: the sequence is obtained by the method of concatenation but the operation applied on its terms is some other arithmetical operation; the sequence is not obtained by concatenation but the operation applied on its terms is concatenation or both the sequence and the operation applied on its terms (in order to find sequences of primes) are using the method of concatenation. Part Two of this book, “Sequences of primes obtained by the method of concatenation” brings together 51 articles which aim, using the mentioned method, to highlight sequences of numbers which are rich in primes or are liable to lead to large primes. The method of concatenation is applied to different classes of numbers, e.g. Poulet numbers, twin primes, reversible primes, triangular numbers, repdigits, factorial numbers, fibonorial numbers, primordial numbers in order to obtain sequences of primes.

This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part One of this book of collected papers brings together papers regarding conjectures on primes, twin primes, squares of primes, semiprimes, different types of pairs of primes, recurrent sequences, other sequences of integers related to primes created through concatenation and in other ways. Part Two brings together several articles presenting the notions of c-primes, m-primes, c-composites and m-composites (c/m integers), also the notions of g-primes, s-primes, g-composites and s-composites (g/s integers) and show some of the applications of these notions. Part Three presents the notions of “Mar constants” and “Smarandache-Coman constants”, useful to highlight the periodicity of some infinite sequences of positive integers (sequences of squares, cubes, triangualar numbers) , respectively in the analysis of Smarandache concatenated sequences. Part Four presents the notion of Smarandache-Coman sequences, id est the sequences of primes formed through different arithmetical operations on the terms of Smarandache concatenated sequences. Part Five presents the notion of Smarandache-Coman function, a function based on the Smarandache function which seems to be particularly interesting: beside other notable characteristics, it seems to have as values all the prime numbers and, more than that, they seem to appear, leaving aside the non-prime values, in natural order. This book of collected papers seeks to expand the knowledge on some well known classes of numbers and also to define new classes of primes or classes of integers directly related to primes.

This book was released on with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is always difficult to talk about arithmetic, because those who do not know what is about, nor do they understand in few sentences, no matter how inspired these might be, and those who know what is about, do no need to be told what is about. Arithmetic is that branch of mathematics that you keep it in your soul and in your mind, not in your suitcase or laptop. Part One of this book of collected papers aims to show new applications of Smarandache function in the study of some well known classes of numbers, like Sophie Germain primes, Poulet numbers, Carmichael numbers ets. Beside the well-known notions of number theory, we defined in these papers the following new concepts: “Smarandache-Coman divisors of order k of a composite integer n with m prime factors”, “Smarandache-Coman congruence on primes”, “Smarandache-Germain primes”, Coman-Smarandache criterion for primality”, “Smarandache-Korselt criterion”, “Smarandache-Coman constants”. Part Two of this book brings together several papers on few well known and less known types of primes.
Download or read book Number Treasury 3 Investigations Facts And Conjectures About More Than 100 Number Families 3rd Edition written by Margaret J Kenney and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2015-06-18 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This resource volume is an enlargement as well as an update of the previous edition. The book aims to introduce the reader to over 100 different families of positive integers. A brief historical note accompanies the descriptions and examples of several of the families together with a mix of routine exercises and problems as well as some thought provokers to solve. Number Treasury3 especially aims to stimulate further study beyond the scope of the introductory treatment given in the book. The emphasis in Number Treasury3 is on doing not proving. However, the reader is directed to think critically about situations, to provide explanations, to make generalizations, and to formulate conjectures. To engage the reader from the start, the book begins with a set of rich Investigations. These are standalone activities that represent each of the chapters of the book.
Download or read book An Invitation to Abstract Mathematics written by Béla Bajnok and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This undergraduate textbook is intended primarily for a transition course into higher mathematics, although it is written with a broader audience in mind. The heart and soul of this book is problem solving, where each problem is carefully chosen to clarify a concept, demonstrate a technique, or to enthuse. The exercises require relatively extensive arguments, creative approaches, or both, thus providing motivation for the reader. With a unified approach to a diverse collection of topics, this text points out connections, similarities, and differences among subjects whenever possible. This book shows students that mathematics is a vibrant and dynamic human enterprise by including historical perspectives and notes on the giants of mathematics, by mentioning current activity in the mathematical community, and by discussing many famous and less well-known questions that remain open for future mathematicians. Ideally, this text should be used for a two semester course, where the first course has no prerequisites and the second is a more challenging course for math majors; yet, the flexible structure of the book allows it to be used in a variety of settings, including as a source of various independent-study and research projects.

Download or read book Mathematics and Plausible Reasoning Volume 1 written by G. Polya and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the practical art of plausible reasoning, this book has relevance in every field of intellectual activity. Professor Polya, a world-famous mathematician from Stanford University, uses mathematics to show how hunches and guesses play an important part in even the most rigorously deductive science. He explains how solutions to problems can be guessed at; good guessing is often more important than rigorous deduction in finding correct solutions. Vol. I, on Induction and Analogy in Mathematics, covers a wide variety of mathematical problems, revealing the trains of thought that lead to solutions, pointing out false bypaths, discussing techniques of searching for proofs. Problems and examples challenge curiosity, judgment, and power of invention.

Download or read book Mathematics Poetry And Beauty written by Ron Aharoni and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2014-12-23 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does mathematics have to do with poetry? Seemingly, nothing. Mathematics deals with abstractions while poetry with emotions. And yet, the two share something essential: Beauty. “Euclid alone has looked on beauty bare,” says the title of a poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay.A winner of the CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title 2015, “Mathematics, Poetry and Beauty” tries to solve the secret of the similarity between the two domains. It tries to explain how a mathematical argument and a poem can move us in the same way. Mathematical and poetic techniques are compared, with the aim of showing how they evoke the same sense of beauty.The reader may find that, as Bertrand Russell said, “Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty — a beauty hold and austere, like that of sculpture … sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show.”
Download or read book Uncle Petros and Goldbach s Conjecture written by Apostolos Doxiadis and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uncle Petros is a family joke. An ageing recluse, he lives alone in a suburb of Athens, playing chess and tending to his garden. If you didn't know better, you'd surely think he was one of life's failures. But his young nephew suspects otherwise. For Uncle Petros, he discovers, was once a celebrated mathematician, brilliant and foolhardy enough to stake everything on solving a problem that had defied all attempts at proof for nearly three centuries - Goldbach's Conjecture. His quest brings him into contact with some of the century's greatest mathematicians, including the Indian prodigy Ramanujan and the young Alan Turing. But his struggle is lonely and single-minded, and by the end it has apparently destroyed his life. Until that is a final encounter with his nephew opens up to Petros, once more, the deep mysterious beauty of mathematics. Uncle Petros and Goldbach's Conjecture is an inspiring novel of intellectual adventure, proud genius, the exhilaration of pure mathematics - and the rivalry and antagonism which torment those who pursue impossible goals.

Download or read book Number Theory and Geometry An Introduction to Arithmetic Geometry written by Álvaro Lozano-Robledo and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2019-03-21 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geometry and the theory of numbers are as old as some of the oldest historical records of humanity. Ever since antiquity, mathematicians have discovered many beautiful interactions between the two subjects and recorded them in such classical texts as Euclid's Elements and Diophantus's Arithmetica. Nowadays, the field of mathematics that studies the interactions between number theory and algebraic geometry is known as arithmetic geometry. This book is an introduction to number theory and arithmetic geometry, and the goal of the text is to use geometry as the motivation to prove the main theorems in the book. For example, the fundamental theorem of arithmetic is a consequence of the tools we develop in order to find all the integral points on a line in the plane. Similarly, Gauss's law of quadratic reciprocity and the theory of continued fractions naturally arise when we attempt to determine the integral points on a curve in the plane given by a quadratic polynomial equation. After an introduction to the theory of diophantine equations, the rest of the book is structured in three acts that correspond to the study of the integral and rational solutions of linear, quadratic, and cubic curves, respectively. This book describes many applications including modern applications in cryptography; it also presents some recent results in arithmetic geometry. With many exercises, this book can be used as a text for a first course in number theory or for a subsequent course on arithmetic (or diophantine) geometry at the junior-senior level.

Book excerpt: Mr. Ruche, a Parisian bookseller, receives a bequest from a long lost friend in the Amazon of a vast library of math books, which propels him into a great exploration of the story of mathematics. Meanwhile Max, whose family lives with Mr. Ruche, takes in a voluble parrot who will discuss math with anyone. When Mr. Ruche learns of his friend's mysterious death in a Brazilian rainforest, he decides that with the parrot's help he will use these books to teach Max and his brother and sister the mysteries of Euclid's Elements, Pythagoras's Theorem and the countless other mathematical wonders. But soon it becomes clear that Mr. Ruche has inherited the library for reasons other than enlightenment, and before he knows it the household is racing to prevent the parrot and vital, new theorems from falling into the wrong hands. An immediate bestseller when first published in France, The Parrot's Theorem charmingly combines a straightforward history of mathematics and a first-rate murder mystery.
