  • The Logic of Infinity

    Few mathematical results capture the imagination like Georg Cantor's groundbreaking work on infinity in the late nineteenth century. This opened the door to an intricate axiomatic theory of sets which was born in the decades that followed. Written for the motivated novice, this book provides an overview of key ideas in set theory, bridging the gap between technical accounts of mathematical ... En savoir plus

  • Introducing Infinity

    A Graphic Guide

    par Brian Clegg ...
    Collections series Graphic Guides
    Infinity is a profoundly counter-intuitive and brain-twisting subject that has inspired some great thinkers – and provoked and shocked others.The ancient Greeks were so horrified by the implications of an endless number that they drowned the man who gave away the secret. And a German mathematician was driven mad by the repercussions of his discovery of transfinite numbers.Brian Clegg and Oliver ... En savoir plus

  • Basic Category Theory

    par Tom Leinster ...
    Collections Livre 143 - Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics
    At the heart of this short introduction to category theory is the idea of a universal property, important throughout mathematics. After an introductory chapter giving the basic definitions, separate chapters explain three ways of expressing universal properties: via adjoint functors, representable functors, and limits. A final chapter ties all three together. The book is suitable for use in ... En savoir plus

  • The philosophy of mathematics

    par Auguste Comte ...
    Although Mathematical Science is the most ancient and the most perfect of all, yet the general idea which we ought to form of it has not yet been clearly determined. Its definition and its principal divisions have remained till now vague and uncertain. Indeed the plural name-"The Mathematics"-by which we commonly designate it, would alone suffice to indicate the want of unity in the common ... En savoir plus

  • Godel's Mistake

    The Role of Meaning in Mathematics

    par Ashish Dalela ...
    Gödel's incompleteness theorem is a foundational result in mathematics that proves that any axiomatic theory of numbers will be either inconsistent or incomplete. Turing’s Halting problem is a foundational result in computing proving that computers cannot know if a program will halt. Gödel’s Mistake connects these theorems to the question of meaning. The book shows that the proofs arise due to ... En savoir plus

  • Set Theory

    A First Course

    Collections series Cambridge Mathematical Textbooks
    Set theory is a rich and beautiful subject whose fundamental concepts permeate virtually every branch of mathematics. One could say that set theory is a unifying theory for mathematics, since nearly all mathematical concepts and results can be formalized within set theory. This textbook is meant for an upper undergraduate course in set theory. In this text, the fundamentals of abstract sets, ... En savoir plus

  • One Hundred Prisoners and a Light Bulb

    Collections series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    A group of 100 prisoners, all together in the prison dining area, are told that they will be all put in isolation cells and then will be interrogated one by one in a room containing a light with an on/off switch. The prisoners may communicate with one another by toggling the light switch (and that is the only way in which they can communicate). The light is initially switched off. There is no ...

  • Appalachian Set Theory

    2006–2012

    Collections Livre 406 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    This volume takes its name from a popular series of intensive mathematics workshops hosted at institutions in Appalachia and surrounding areas. At these meetings, internationally prominent set theorists give one-day lectures that focus on important new directions, methods, tools and results so that non-experts can begin to master these and incorporate them into their own research. Each chapter in ... En savoir plus

  • A Logical Introduction to Proof

    Collections series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The book is intended for students who want to learn how to prove theorems and be better prepared for the rigors required in more advance mathematics. One of the key components in this textbook is the development of a methodology to lay bare the structure underpinning the construction of a proof, much as diagramming a sentence lays bare its grammatical structure. Diagramming a proof is a way of ... En savoir plus

  • Mind-Blowing Math

    Mysteries Revealed

    par Nansea Cross ...
    Nansea Cross, a math teacher and tutor, shares discoveries that make math easier to teach and more exciting to learn. Beginning with the multiplication table, she found that all the multiples of all the numberstaken through a simple processreveal different patterns. Looking deeper, she realized that these patterns repeat, have symmetry, and all add up to the same reduced number. The patterns occur ... En savoir plus

  • Benford's Law

    Theory and Applications

    Modifié par Steven J. Miller ...
    Benford's law states that the leading digits of many data sets are not uniformly distributed from one through nine, but rather exhibit a profound bias. This bias is evident in everything from electricity bills and street addresses to stock prices, population numbers, mortality rates, and the lengths of rivers. Here, Steven Miller brings together many of the world’s leading experts on Benford’s law ... En savoir plus
