Research in mathematics is much more than solving puzzles, but most people will agree that solving puzzles is not just fun: it helps focus the mind and increases one's armory of techniques for doing mathematics.
Popular Lectures in Mathematics, Volume 12: Mathematical Problems and Puzzles: From the Polish Mathematical Olympiads contains sample problems from various fields of mathematics, including arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry.
This problem book gathers together 15 problem sets on analytic number theory that can be profitably approached by anyone from advanced high school students to those pursuing graduate studies.
Based on the successful 7th China-Japan seminar on number theory conducted in Kyushu University, this volume is a compilation of survey and semi-survey type of papers by the participants of the seminar.
The central topic of this research monograph is the relation between p-adic modular forms and p-adic Galois representations, and in particular the theory of deformations of Galois representations recently introduced by Mazur.
A complete, self-contained introduction to a powerful and resurging mathematical discipline Combinatorial Geometry presents and explains with complete proofs some of the most important results and methods of this relatively young mathematical discipline, started by Minkowski, Fejes T th, Rogers, and Erd's.
This volume contains a collection of papers in Analytic and Elementary Number Theory in memory of Professor Paul Erdos, one of the greatest mathematicians of this century.
Although it was in print for a short time only, the original edition of Multiplicative Number Theory had a major impact on research and on young mathematicians.
Our intention in writing this book is to give an elementary introduction to number theory which does not demand a great deal of mathematical back- ground or maturity from the reader, and which can be read and understood with no extra assistance.
Introduction to Abelian Model Structures and Gorenstein Homological Dimensions provides a starting point to study the relationship between homological and homotopical algebra, a very active branch of mathematics.
Auf breiter fachlicher Ebene werden in dem Lehrbuch einfache elementare zahlentheoretische Inhalte besprochen, aber auch Stoffkomplexe aus der analytischen und algebraischen Zahlentheorie dargestellt.
This volume contains the proceedings from the first Women in MathArt Research Collaboration Conference for Women, showcasing women mathematicians researching and curating creative pedagogies at the intersection of mathematics and the arts.
Matrix Methods: Applied Linear Algebra and Sabermetrics, Fourth Edition, provides a unique and comprehensive balance between the theory and computation of matrices.
This undergraduate textbook provides an approachable and thorough introduction to the topic of algebraic number theory, taking the reader from unique factorisation in the integers through to the modern-day number field sieve.
