  aleph maths: Weirder Maths David Darling, Agnijo Banerjee, 2019-07-04 Even the most enthusiastic of maths students probably at one time wondered when exactly it would all prove useful in ‘real life’. Well, maths reaches so far and wide through our world that, love it or hate it, we’re all doing maths almost every minute of every day. David Darling and Agnijo Banerjee go in search of the perfect labyrinth, journey back to the second century in pursuit of ‘bubble maths’, reveal the weirdest mathematicians in history and transform the bewildering into the beautiful, delighting us once again.
  aleph maths: The Biggest Number in the World David Darling, Agnijo Banerjee, 2022-05-05 From cells in our bodies to measuring the universe, big numbers are everywhere We all know that numbers go on forever, that you could spend your life counting and never reach the end of the line, so there can’t be such a thing as a ‘biggest number’. Or can there? To find out, David Darling and Agnijo Banerjee embark on an epic quest, revealing the answers to questions like: are there more grains of sand on Earth or stars in the universe? Is there enough paper on Earth to write out the digits of a googolplex? And what is a googolplex? Then things get serious. Enter the strange realm between the finite and the infinite, and float through a universe where the rules we cling to no longer apply. Encounter the highest number computable and infinite kinds of infinity. At every turn, a cast of wild and wonderful characters threatens the status quo with their ideas, and each time the numbers get larger.
  aleph maths: An Anthropology of Puzzles Marcel Danesi, 2020-05-15 An Anthropology of Puzzles argues that the human brain is a puzzling organ which allows humans to literally solve their own problems of existence through puzzle format. Noting the presence of puzzles everywhere in everyday life, Marcel Danesi looks at puzzles in society since the dawn of history, showing how their presence has guided large sections of human history, from discoveries in mathematics to disquisitions in philosophy. Danesi examines the cognitive processes that are involved in puzzle making and solving, and connects them to the actual physical manifestations of classic puzzles. Building on a concept of puzzles as based on Jungian archetypes, such as the river crossing image, the path metaphor, and the journey, Danesi suggests this could be one way to understand the public fascination with puzzles. As well as drawing on underlying mental archetypes, the act of solving puzzles also provides an outlet to move beyond biological evolution, and Danesi shows that puzzles could be the product of the same basic neural mechanism that produces language and culture. Finally, Danesi explores how understanding puzzles can be a new way of understanding our human culture.
  aleph maths: Les Mots et les Maths Bertrand Hauchecorne, 2025-02-25 Une promenade dans l’histoire du vocabulaire mathématique Cet ouvrage est une incitation à cheminer dans les mathématiques par le prisme du langage. Il est un véritable dictionnaire étymologique des termes utilisés en mathématiques mais il est bien plus que cela. L’introduction, comme les différents encarts, amènent le lecteur à une réflexion sur le vocabulaire mathématique et sur le lien entre un concept et le mot qui le désigne. On s’amusera de voir que « vecteur » désignait un conducteur de bateau et on méditera sur ces expressions devenues courantes comme « Pour moi, c’est de l’algèbre ». Une deuxième édition enrichie Des encarts, des citations, des anecdotes rendent plus attrayante cette deuxième édition et permette une lecture à plusieurs entrées. La traduction en anglais et en allemand des termes analysés en fait un véritable dictionnaire trilingue. Trois index permettent de cheminer plus facilement dans l’ouvrage. À qui s’adresse cet ouvrage ? Alliant des éléments de linguistique, d’histoire et, bien sûr, de mathématiques, ce livre intéressera un public varié, ceux qui aiment les mots, ceux qui aiment les maths et plus largement tous ceux que l’étymologie intéresse.

  aleph maths: Georg Cantor Joseph Warren Dauben, 1990 One of the greatest revolutions in mathematics occurred when Georg Cantor (1845-1918) promulgated his theory of transfinite sets. This revolution is the subject of Joseph Dauben's important studythe most thorough yet writtenof the philosopher and mathematician who was once called a corrupter of youth for an innovation that is now a vital component of elementary school curricula. Set theory has been widely adopted in mathematics and philosophy, but the controversy surrounding it at the turn of the century remains of great interest. Cantor's own faith in his theory was partly theological. His religious beliefs led him to expect paradoxes in any concept of the infinite, and he always retained his belief in the utter veracity of transfinite set theory. Later in his life, he was troubled by recurring attacks of severe depression. Dauben shows that these played an integral part in his understanding and defense of set theory.

  aleph maths: Introducing Infinity Brian Clegg, 2014-12-01 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 Pugh's brilliant graphic tour of infinity features a cast of characters ranging from Archimedes and Pythagoras to al-Khwarizmi, Fibonacci, Galileo, Newton, Leibniz, Cantor, Venn, Gödel and Mandelbrot, and shows how infinity has challenged the finest minds of science and mathematics. Prepare to enter a world of paradox.

  aleph maths: Matematica per poeti Andrea Cattania, 2023-12-22 Se anche tu, come dice Venditti in una celebre canzone, hai sempre ripetuto a te stesso: «La matematica non sarà mai il mio mestiere» forse è arrivato il momento di provare a far pace con questa materia. La netta distinzione tra discipline umanistiche e scientifiche è solo apparente. Basta cambiare prospettiva per accorgersi che – dietro a calcoli, teoremi, dimostrazioni e alle altre cose ancora più astruse – si nasconde il viaggio dell’intera umanità attraverso il mondo dell’astrazione, per ricercare ed esplorare armonia e bellezza. Proprio la stessa bellezza che per secoli è stata al centro delle riflessioni e delle opere di filosofi, artisti e poeti. La matematica altro non è che questa storia: un racconto fatto di eroi, personaggi spesso un po’ bizzarri, sorprendenti colpi di genio, aneddoti curiosi e imprese al limite dell’incredibile.

  aleph maths: Mathematical Carnival Martin Gardner, 2020-10-06 Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games columns in Scientific American inspired and entertained several generations of mathematicians and scientists. Gardner in his crystal-clear prose illuminated corners of mathematics, especially recreational mathematics, that most people had no idea existed. His playful spirit and inquisitive nature invite the reader into an exploration of beautiful mathematical ideas along with him. These columns were both a revelation and a gift when he wrote them; no one--before Gardner--had written about mathematics like this. They continue to be a marvel. This volume, first published in 1975, contains columns published in the magazine from 1965-1967. This 1989 MAA edition contains a foreword by John H. Conway and a postscript and extended bibliography added by Gardner for this edition.
