"e;Introduction to Modern Number Theory"e; surveys from a unified point of view both the modern state and the trends of continuing development of various branches of number theory.
Since their appearance in the late 19th century, the Cantor--Dedekind theory of real numbers and philosophy of the continuum have emerged as pillars of standard mathematical philosophy.
Die Schulmathematik vermittelt meist nur einen sehr eingeschränkten Einblick in die beweisorientierte und axiomatisch aufgebaute moderne Mathematik – Studienanfänger werden daher oft unvorbereitet von der Hochschulmathematik getroffen.
In this volume, world-leading puzzle designers, puzzle collectors, mathematicians, and magicians continue the tradition of honoring Martin Gardner, who inspired them to enter mathematics, to enter magic, to bring magic into their mathematics, or to bring mathematics into their magic.
This monograph, for the first time in book form, considers the large structure of metric spaces as captured by bornologies: families of subsets that contain the singletons, that are stable under finite unions, and that are stable under taking subsets of its members.

The hexaflexagon is a folded paper strip of colored triangles that has long delighted people with how it "e;magically"e; changes its appearance when "e;flexed"e;.
This volume has a dual significance to the ESPRIT Basic Research efforts towards forging strong links between European academic and industrial teams carrying out research, often interdisciplinary, at the forefront of Information Technology.
Learn how to develop your reasoning skills and how to writewell-reasoned proofs Learning to Reason shows you how to use the basic elements ofmathematical language to develop highly sophisticated, logicalreasoning skills.
The theory of the measure of noncompactness has proved its significance in various contexts, particularly in the study of fixed point theory, differential equations, functional equations, integral and integrodifferential equations, optimization, and others.
In this two-volume compilation of articles, leading researchers reevaluate the success of Hilbert's axiomatic method, which not only laid the foundations for our understanding of modern mathematics, but also found applications in physics, computer science and elsewhere.
Fuzzy social choice theory is useful for modeling the uncertainty and imprecision prevalent in social life yet it has been scarcely applied and studied in the social sciences.
Accessible to all students with a sound background in high school mathematics, A Concise Introduction to Pure Mathematics, Fourth Edition presents some of the most fundamental and beautiful ideas in pure mathematics.
Wer glaubt, dass sich Rechnen auf trockene Formeln und Zahlen beschränkt, wird mit „Aspekte des Unendlichen – Eine kleine Erzählung für Nichtmathematiker“ sein blaues Wunder erleben.
This volume presents some exciting new developments occurring on the interface between set theory and computability as well as their applications in algebra, analysis and topology.
Knowledge discovery is an area of computer science that attempts to uncover interesting and useful patterns in data that permit a computer to perform a task autonomously or assist a human in performing a task more efficiently.
Twists, Tilings, and Tessellation describes the underlying principles and mathematics of the broad and exciting field of abstract and mathematical origami, most notably the field of origami tessellations.
