  • Experimentation in Mathematics

    Computational Paths to Discovery

    by Jonathan M. Borwein, David H. Bailey, Roland Girgensohn ...
    New mathematical insights and rigorous results are often gained through extensive experimentation using numerical examples or graphical images and analyzing them. Today computer experiments are an integral part of doing mathematics. This allows for a more systematic approach to conducting and replicating experiments. The authors address the role of ...

  • Convex Functions

    Constructions, Characterizations and Counterexamples

    by Jonathan M. Borwein, Jon D. Vanderwerff ...
    Series Book 109 - Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications
    Like differentiability, convexity is a natural and powerful property of functions that plays a significant role in many areas of mathematics, both pure and applied. It ties together notions from topology, algebra, geometry and analysis, and is an important tool in optimization, mathematical programming and game theory. This book, which is the product of a collaboration of over 15 years, is unique ... Read more

  • Experimental Mathematics in Action

    by David Bailey, Jonathan Borwein, Neil Calkin, Russell Luke, Roland Girgensohn, Victor Moll ...
    With the continued advance of computing power and accessibility, the view that "real mathematicians don't compute" no longer has any traction for a newer generation of mathematicians. The goal in this book is to present a coherent variety of accessible examples of modern mathematics where intelligent computing plays a significant role and in so doi ... Read more

  • Tools and Mathematics

    by John Monaghan, Luc Trouche, Jonathan M. Borwein ...
    Series series Education (R0)
    This book is an exploration of tools and mathematics and issues in mathematics education related to tool use. The book has five parts. The first part reflects on doing a mathematical task with different tools, followed by a mathematician's account of tool use in his work. The second considers prehistory and history: tools in the development from ape to human; tools and mathematics in the ancient ... Read more

  • Weyl Group Multiple Dirichlet Series

    Type A Combinatorial Theory

    by Ben Brubaker, Daniel Bump, Solomon Friedberg ...
    Series Book 175 - Annals of Mathematics Studies
    Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series are generalizations of the Riemann zeta function. Like the Riemann zeta function, they are Dirichlet series with analytic continuation and functional equations, having applications to analytic number theory. By contrast, these Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series may be functions of several complex variables and their groups of functional equations may be ... Read more

  • Numerical Analysis

    by Larkin Ridgway Scott ...
    Computational science is fundamentally changing how technological questions are addressed. The design of aircraft, automobiles, and even racing sailboats is now done by computational simulation. The mathematical foundation of this new approach is numerical analysis, which studies algorithms for computing expressions defined with real numbers. Emphasizing the theory behind the computation, this ... Read more
