in Educational > Mathematics - Vector calculus - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vector calculus (also called vector analysis) is a field of mathematics concerned with multivariate real analysis of vectors in two or more dimensions. It consists of a suite of formulas and problem solving techniques very useful for engineering and physics. Vector analysis has its origin in quaternion analysis, and was formulated by the American scientist, J. Willard Gibbs [1]. It concerns vector fields, which associate a vector to every point in space, and scalar fields, which associate a scalar to every point in space. For example, the temperature of a swimming pool is a scalar field: to each point we associate a scalar value of temperature. The water flow in the same pool is a vector field: to each point we associate a velocity vector.

These notes were written during the Fall 1997 semester to accompany Larson's College Algebra: A Graphing Approach, 2nd edition text. We have moved on to Larson's 4th edition and some sections have changed but I have left them where they are since many people on the Internet find these useful resources. The notes were updated in the Fall 2003 semester to use Cascading Style Sheets and validate as XHTML 1.0 strict web pages. If your browser doesn't support CSS, certain pages (especially those with matrices) will not display properly.

Maths lecture I went to on Sudoku. Eighteenth century Swiss mathematician Leonard Euler was prolific in every sense. He fathered 13 children and probably just as many branches of mathematics. One of his many legacies is the name "Latin square" to describe a matrix in which each row and column forms a permutation of the numbers 1,2,3,...,n. He was the original Sudoku addict! Like Euler, Ian Wanless discovered that playing with Latin squares is fun a long time before it became fashionable. In this colloquium he will explain some of his recent extensions of Euler's fundamental discoveries.

in Educational > Mathematics > Topology Books - Beginning Topology (Brooks/Cole Series in Advanced Mathematics) by Sue Goodman
With a nice balance of mathematical precision and accessibility, this text provides a broad introduction to the field of topology. Author Sue Goodman piques student curiosity and interest without losing necessary rigor so that they can appreciate the beauty and fun of mathematics. The text demonstrates that mathematics is an active and ever-changing field with many problems still unsolved, and students will see how the various areas of mathematics ? algebra, combinatorics, geometry, calculus, and differential equations ? interact with topology. Students learn some of the major ideas and results in the field, do explorations and fairly elementary proofs, and become aware of some recent questions.

Note: A decent explanation of the fixed point property: http://planetmath.org/encyclopedia/FixedPointProperty.html - A Mathematician's Apology (Canto) (Paperback) by G. H. Hardy, C. P. Snow (Foreword)
A Mathematician's Apology is a profoundly sad book, the memoir of a man who has reached the end of his ambition, who can no longer effectively practice the art that has consumed him since he was a boy. But at the same time, it is a joyful celebration of the subject--and a stern lecture to those who would sully it by dilettantism or attempts to make it merely useful. "The mathematician's patterns," G.H. Hardy declares, "like the painter's or the poet's, must be beautiful; the ideas, like the colours or the words, must fit together in a harmonious way. Beauty is the first test: there is no permanent place in the world for ugly mathematics."

Sir Andrew John Wiles (born April 11, 1953) is a British-American mathematician, the Eugene Higgins Professor of Mathematics at Princeton University, Princeton mathematics department chair, and member of scientific advisory board of the Clay Mathematics Institute. One of the major highlights of his career has been an announcement of a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem in 1993 and a discovery of a beautiful method to complete that proof in 1994.

In mathematics, a bijection, or a bijective function is a function f from a set X to a set Y with the property that, for every y in Y, there is exactly one x in X such that f(x) = y. Alternatively, f is bijective if it is a one-to-one correspondence between those sets; i.e., both one-to-one (injective) and onto (surjective).[1] (See also Bijection, injection and surjection.)
