Les Chiffres, Compte Rendu Mathematique
ISBN: 9781511992381 / Francuski / Miękka / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Je me rappelle qu'on me demandait, enfant, de retenir des concepts et de les prendre pour vrais sans me permettre de remettre en question la validite de leur importance puisqu'ils avaient une valeur objective supposee depasser mon entendement. Dans la mesure ou je n'utilisais pas le meme vocabulaire ou la syntaxe admise pour se faire tout du moins. Autant dire me depasser d'ailleurs, mais la n'etait pas le probleme. L'insoluble paradoxe residait dans le fait qu'on pretendait m'enseigner comment penser a mots couverts quelque chose qu'on presentait comme une abstraction pure et que je devais...

100 Essential Things You Didn't Know You Didn't Know about Math and the Arts
ISBN: 9780393352221 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At first glance, the worlds of math and the arts might not seem like comfortable neighbors. But as mathematician John D. Barrow points out, they have a strong and natural affinity--after all, math is the study of all patterns, and the world of the arts is rich with pattern. Barrow whisks us through 100 thought-provoking and often whimsical intersections between math and many arts, from the golden ratios of Mondrian's rectangles and the curious fractal-like nature of Pollock's drip paintings to ballerinas' gravity-defying leaps and the next generation of monkeys on typewriters tackling...

Springs of Scientific Creativity : Essays on Founders of Modern Science
ISBN: 9780816668304 / Angielski / Miękka / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Springs of Scientific Creativity was first published in 1983.Mathematician Henri Poincare was boarding a bus when he realized that the transformations of non-Euclidian geometry were just those he needed in his research on the theory of functions. He did not have to interrupt his conversation, still less to verify the equation in detail; his insight was complete at that point. Poincare's insight into his own creativity -- his awareness that preliminary cogitation and the working of the subconscious had prepared his mind for an intuitive flash of recognition -- is just one of many possible...

An Equation for Every Occasion : Fifty-Two Formulas and Why They Matter
ISBN: 9781421419831 / Angielski / Miękka / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With this fun romp through the world of equations we encounter in our everyday lives, you'll find yourself flipping through the stories of fifty-two formulas faster than a deck of cards. John M. Henshaw's intriguing true accounts, each inspired by a different mathematical equation, are both succinct and easy to read. His tales come from the spheres of sports, business, history, the arts, science, and technology. Anecdotes about famous equations, like E=mc 2, appear alongside tales of not-so-famous--but equally fascinating--equations, such as the one used to determine the SPF...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. a congettura di Siracusa (meglio nota come la congettura di Collatz) e una delle tante congetture matematiche ancora in attesa di dimostrazione. In questo saggio e affrontata evidenziandone alcune caratteristiche. Da una di queste prende spunto un procedimento che conduce a un teorema la cui dimostrazione la risolve in maniera completa e definitiva. In pochi passi si esce dal labirinto, si giunge al mare da altissime quote e si doma il pazzo ascensore di un altissimo grattacielo. La soluzione della congettura di Siracusa svela la magica armonia dei numeri dispari e apre nuovi orizzonti alla...

The Conjecture of Syracuse: Second Edition
ISBN: 9788869490705 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The conjecture of Syracuse (better known as the Collatz conjecture) is one of the many mathematical conjectures still waiting for proof. In this essay it is addressed by highlighting some of its features. From one of these features takes its cue a process that leads to a theorem whose proof solves the conjecture in a complete and definitive way. With few steps we exit the maze, we reach sea level from high altitudes and we tame the crazy lift of a very high skyscraper. The solution of the conjecture of Syracuse reveals the magical harmony of odd numbers and opens new horizons to the number...

The Secret Harmony of Primes
ISBN: 9789176370001 / Angielski / Miękka / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The sequence of the primes is something of a mystery in number theory' if not in all of mathematics. Hardly any topic has ever fascinated mathe¬maticians more. Euler once said' "Mathematicians have tried in vain' to this day' to discover some order in the sequence of prime numbers' and we have reason to believe that it is a mystery into which the mind will never penetrate." One key question has always been: Does there exist a single' overarching organisational principle that accounts for why any prime follows another prime as the next largest prime in the prime sequence? A primary... The sequence of the primes is something of a mystery in number theory' if not in all of mathematics. Hardly any topic has ever fascinated mathe¬ma... |

Ten British Mathematicians of the 19th Century
ISBN: 9781461112822 / Angielski / Miękka / 102 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the years 1901-1904 Dr. Alexander Macfarlane delivered, at Lehigh University, lectures on twenty-five British mathematicians of the nineteenth century. The manuscripts of twenty of these lectures have been found to be almost ready for the printer, although some marginal notes by the author indicate that he had certain additions in view. The editors have felt free to disregard such notes, and they here present ten lectures on ten pure mathematicians in essentially the same form as delivered.
