Download or read book L l vat of Bh skar c rya written by Bhāskarācārya and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1150 AD, Bhaskaracarya (b. 1114 AD), renowned mathematician and astronomer of Vedic tradition composed Lilavati as the first part of his larger work called Siddhanta Siromani, a comprehensive exposition of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, mensuration, number theory and related topics. Lilavati has been used as a standard textbook for about 800 years. This lucid, scholarly and literary presentation has been translated into several languages of the world. Bhaskaracarya himself never gave any derivations of his formulae. N.H. Phadke (1902-1973) worked hard to construct proofs of several mathematical methods and formulae given in original Lilavati. The present work is an enlargement of his Marathi work and attempts a thorough mathematical explanation of definitions, formulae, short cuts and methodology as intended by Bhaskara. Stitches are followed by literal translations so that the reader can enjoy and appreciate the beauty of accurate and musical presentation in Lilavati. The book is useful to school going children, sophomores, teachers, scholars, historians and those working for cause of mathematics.

Download or read book The core of Aryabhata Brahamgupta Bhaskara II written by Sunny Kumar and published by Aryabhatasya Academy of Mathematics. This book was released on 2020-07-22 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Aryabhata writes 'Aryabhatiya' in 499 CE, it was the golden period of the Indian culture in every aspect of human activity, such as Economy, Science, Philosophy, Art, and standard of living. After this work, Aryabhata got the attention of his fallows & peers. And then he passes away when he teaching at Nalanda University (Patliputra/Patna). After his death various mathematicians along with his disciples write commentaries on his writings, to continue his legacy. There are more than 15 commentaries till the 1800s and many after that. And there are mathematicians like Varahmihira, Bhaskara I, Brahmagupta, and Bhaskara II, who continue his method of doing mathematics and astronomy. So, if there are various commentaries there, then what is the purpose of this manuscript. To answer this, I would like to put the attention to the point, that thou Aryabhatiya contains highly applicable and advanced mathematics. But it also contains a verity of advanced principal on astronomy and that is the case with its commentaries by learned mathematicians, which divert us to the subject (mathematics) to another subject (astronomy). So, there is a need for a manuscript, that can give a glance of mathematics. So this manuscript is presented to fulfill the requirement. And this manuscript connects the work of Aryabhata to Brahmagupta and Bhaskara II, and highlight the development of the concept of zero to the origin of infinity. It is the main attraction of this work. The manuscript is prepared by selecting the verses from Aryabhatiya (33 verses), BrahmaSphuthaSiddanta (7 verses) by Brahmagupta, and SiddhantaSiromani (3 verses) by Bhaskara II. The author pays his gratitude to previous work done by writers such as 'K.S. Shukla' for "Aryabhatiya of Aryabhata", 'W.E Clark' for "The Aryabhatiya of Aryabhata", ' Pt. Sudhakara Dvivedin' for "BrahmaSphutaSiddhanta", 'H.T. Colebrooke' for "Algebra of Brahmagupta & Bhaskara II" and 'Dr. V. B Panickar' for "Bhaskaracharya's Bijganitam". These are the main source of this manuscript along with others ( as given in the bibliography section). While I began this work, I find that there are two controversial verses in Aryabhataiya from Ganitam (mathematics) section, i.e., verse no.- 6 &7. I face difficulty and not satisfied with the translation by the previous commentators, who declare them mathematically wrong, by ignoring the last verse of Aryabhatiya (The curse of Aryabhata). And I did not dare to go against the warning of Aryabhata and put forward my translation to them. And this work connects these Gurus to modern mathematicians such as B. Riemann & G. Cantor in the last chapter. This is the main attraction of this work. I hope 'Readers' will find themself connected to that.

Download or read book Zero written by Syamal K. Sen and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zero indicates the absence of a quantity or a magnitude. It is so deeply rooted in our psyche today that nobody will possibly ask "What is zero?" From the beginning of the very creation of life, the feeling of lack of something or the vision of emptiness/void has been embedded by the creator in all living beings. While recognizing different things as well as the absence of one of these things are easy, it is not so easy to fathom the complete nothingness viz. the universal void. Although we have a very good understanding of nothingness or, equivalently, a zero today, our forefathers had devoted countless hours and arrived at the representation and integration of zero and its compatibility not only with all non-zero numbers but also with all conceivable environments only after many painstaking centuries. Zero can be viewed/perceived in two distinct forms: (i) as a number in our mundane affairs and (ii) as the horrific void or Absolute Reality in the spiritual plane/the ultimate state of mind. Presented are the reasons why zero is a landmark discovery and why it has the potential to conjure up in an intense thinker the dreadful nothingness unlike those of other numbers such as 1, 2, and 3. Described are the representation of zero and its history including its deeper understanding via calculus, its occurrences and various roles in different countries as well as in sciences/engineering along with a stress on the Indian zero that is accepted as the time-invariant unique absolute zero. This is followed by the significant distinction between mathematics and computational mathematics and the concerned differences between the unique absolute zero and non-unique relative numerical zeros and their impact and importance in computations on a digital computer. - Introduces the history of the value of zero and why it was a landmark discovery - Discusses how zero is used in science and engineering and its use in different countries - Explains how zero affects different mathematics and calculus
