Matematikkens fundament

Euklids ELEMENTER er et hovedværk ikke alene i matematikken, men i hele den vestlige civilisation. Det er det ældste aksiomatisk opbyggede værk fra 300 f.Kr. med linjer tilbage til Platons og Aristoteles’ filosofi og fremad mod Archimedes og den senere matematik.Dette er den første danske oversættelse af Euklids plangeometri samlet i hans ELEMENTER I-VI siden Thyra Eibes oversættelse fra 1897-1912.Den nye oversættelse er udsprunget af et ønske om at vise Euklids værk i lyset af den moderne forståelse af græsk matematik som en udløber af samtidens filosofiske retninger; Platon og Aristoteles citeres derfor flittigt i den lange indledning. På samme måde er bogen udstyret med en redegørelse for Euklids sprog og dets mangel på symboler af enhver art - i modsætning til den hidtidige oversættelse, der i overensstemmelse med praksis i det sene 19. århundrede gør brug af symboler fra samtidens matematiske sprog.Desuden er der i appendices vigtige matematikhistoriske tekster og emner (Proklos' oversigt over geometrier, Hilberts aksiomer, Hippias' Quadratrix) og andre hjælpemidler, som ikke findes andetsteds.Bogen henvender sig til en bred gruppe læsere: professionelle matematikere fx i gymnasiet og på universitetet, hvor der undervises i matematikkens historie og videnskabsteori, filosofi- og antikstuderende sammesteds og endelig den ret store gruppe mennesker, der interesserer sig for antik filosofi og matematik.Euklids ELEMENTER består af 13 mindre bøger. Gyldendal samler dem i fire bind. Dette første bind indeholder Bog I-VI.  Euklids ELEMENTER I-VI er indledt, oversat og forsynet med bemærkninger af Claus Glunk, Hanne Eggert Strand, Chr. Marinus Taisbak og Chr. Gorm Tortzen.

Den græske matematiker Euklids lærebog ELEMENTER er, hvis man ser bort fra Bibelen, den mest trykte lærebog gennem tiderne. ELEMENTER er skrevet omkring 300 f. Kristus, og er en samling af i alt 13 bøger, der præsenterer den samlede viden om matematik og geometri i tiden.ELEMENTER er et helt uomgængeligt værk for den matematik- og filosofiinteresserede.Bøgerne 1-6, der behandler plangeometrien, er udgivet i foreløbig to oplag, og nu udgives bøgerne 7-9, der omhandler naturlige tal, som bind 2 i det samlede værk.

'An invaluable companion for anyone who wants a deep understanding of what's under the hood of often inscrutable machines' Melanie Mitchell A rich, narrative explanation of the mathematics that has brought us machine learning and the ongoing explosion of artificial intelligenceMachine-learning systems are making life-altering decisions for us: approving mortgage loans, determining whether a tumour is cancerous, or deciding whether someone gets bail. They now influence discoveries in chemistry, biology and physics - the study of genomes, extra-solar planets, even the intricacies of quantum systems.We are living through a revolution in artificial intelligence that is not slowing down. This major shift is based on simple mathematics, some of which goes back centuries: linear algebra and calculus, the stuff of eighteenth-century mathematics. Indeed by the mid-1850s, a lot of the groundwork was all done. It took the development of computer science and the kindling of 1990s computer chips designed for video games to ignite the explosion of AI that we see all around us today. In this enlightening book, Anil Ananthaswamy explains the fundamental maths behind AI, which suggests that the basics of natural and artificial intelligence might follow the same mathematical rules.As Ananthaswamy resonantly concludes, to make the most of our most wondrous technologies we need to understand their profound limitations - the clues lie in the maths that makes AI possible.

Quadratic equations, Pythagoras' theorem, imaginary numbers, and pi - you may remember studying these at school, but did anyone ever explain why? Never fear - bestselling science writer, and your new favourite maths teacher, Michael Brooks, is here to help.In The Maths That Made Us, Brooks reminds us of the wonders of numbers: how they enabled explorers to travel far across the seas and astronomers to map the heavens; how they won wars and halted the HIV epidemic; how they are responsible for the design of your home and almost everything in it, down to the smartphone in your pocket. His clear explanations of the maths that built our world, along with stories about where it came from and how it shaped human history, will engage and delight. From ancient Egyptian priests to the Apollo astronauts, and Babylonian tax collectors to juggling robots, join Brooks and his extraordinarily eccentric cast of characters in discovering how maths made us who we are today.

Hej logik giver en pædagogisk indføring i klassisk logik. Med eksempler og øvelser guider forfatteren læseren igennem centrale temaer i doms- og prædikatslogikken: Hvordan gyldighed hænger sammen med logisk form, hvordan man afdækker logiske strukturer ved at formalisere elementerne i et argument, og hvordan man analyserer logisk form ved at bruge sandhedstabeller og semantiske træer. Bogen kan bruges som lærebog til logikkurser i gymnasiet og på universitetet. Samtidig gør en filosofisk perspektivering af grundtemaerne den også interessant for den mere logikkyndige.Titlen henviser til 'Hej logikmaskinen', der er bogens nye måde at forstå logikkens centrale funktionsbegreb på. Mange finder funktionsbegrebet abstrakt og utilgængeligt, men i Hej logik bliver det forståeligt og intuitivt.

Bind 3 i den nye oversættelse af den græske matematiker Euklids lærebog ELEMENTER omhandler kommensurabilitet. ELEMENTER er skrevet omkring 300 f. Kristus og er en samling af i alt 13 bøger, der præsenterer den samlede viden om matematik og geometri i tiden.Engang omkring år 500 f.Kr. opdagede nogle pythagoræiske matematikere et matematisk problem, som de meget tøvende gik i gang med at finde løsninger på: Nogle tal og linjestykker kan måles med den samme målestok, andre kan ikke.  Et kendt eksempel er et kvadrat på 2x2 fod (eller meter), hvis diagonal målenheden ikke ’går op’ i.Linjer er med andre ord kommensurable eller inkommensurable med hinanden. Men hvordan hænger det sammen?I de foregående ni bøger i Elementerne har Euklid fremstillet geometrien i sin klassiske form på en ny og overskuelig måde, der gjorde alle tidligere geometrier forældede, men i Bog X tager han fat på læsningerne i en helt ny og uudforsket gren af matematikken, læren om kommensurabilitet, som havde fået et afgørende spring fremad med matematikerne Theodoros og Theaitetos i begyndelsen af 300-tallet f.Kr., men endnu ikke var blevet lærebogsstof. Bog X, som i omfang udgør næsten en fjerdedel af hele Euklids Elementer, bærer som frontforskning præg af at skulle fremstille en ny og uprøvet videnskabsgren i et forsøg på at bringe orden og system i den nye erkendelse.Euklids ELEMENTER er et hovedværk ikke alene i matematikken, men i hele den vestlige civilisation og er et helt uomgængeligt værk for den matematik- og filosofiinteresserede.Bogen henvender sig til en bred gruppe læsere: professionelle matematikere fx i gymnasiet og på universitetet, hvor der undervises i matematikkens historie og videnskabsteori, filosofi- og antikstuderende sammesteds og endelig den ret store gruppe mennesker, der interesserer sig for antik filosofi og matematik.Euklids ELEMENTER bog X er indledt, oversat og forsynet med bemærkninger af Claus Glunk, Hanne Eggert Strand, Chr. Marinus Taisbak og Chr. Gorm Tortzen.

Algebra con elementi di logica matematica e teoria degli insiemi.

This book is an introduction to the logic of partitions on a set as well as the (quantum) logic of partitions (direct-sum decompositions or DSDs) on a vector space. Partitions of a set are categorically dual to subsets of a set. Thus the logic of partitions is, in that sense, the dual to the Boolean logic of subsets (usually presented as the special case of propositional logic).Since partitions can be seen as the inverse image partitions of random variables or numerical attributes, partition logic is the logic of random variables or numerical attributes (abstracted from the actual values). On the lattice of partitions of an arbitrary unstructured set, there is a rich algebraic structure of dual operations of implication and co-implication - resembling a non-distributive version of Heyting and co-Heyting algebras.

Math Mammoth Grade 8-A Worktext is the first student book for eighth grade mathematics, and part of the Math Mammoth Grade 8 complete curriculum.This book starts with a study of exponent laws, using both numerical and algebraic expressions. The first chapter also covers scientific notation (both with large and small numbers), significant digits, and calculations with numbers given in scientific notations. In chapter 2, students learn about geometric transformations (translations, reflections, rotations, dilations), common angle relationships, and volume of prisms, cylinders, spheres, and cones. Next, in chapter 3, our focus is on linear equations. Students both review and learn more about solving linear equations, including equations whose solutions require the usage of the distributive property and equations where the variable is on both sides. Chapter 4 presents an introduction to functions. Students construct functions to model linear relationships, learn to use the rate of change and initial value of the function, and they describe functions qualitatively based on their graphs. Features Math Mammoth focuses on conceptual understanding. It explains the "WHY", so students can understand the math, not just learn "HOW" to do it.The curriculum is mastery-oriented. This means it concentrates fairly long on a topic, delving into its various aspects. This promotes conceptual understanding, as opposed to spiral curricula that often tend to jump from topic to topic too much.It requires very little teacher preparation. :)The curriculum has no separate teacher's manual nor is it scripted. The introduction to each chapter has some notes for the teacher concerning the material in the chapter. All the instruction is written directly to the student in the worktext.After each chapter introduction, you will find a list of Internet links and resources (games, quizzes, animations, etc.) that can be used for fun, illustrations, and further practice.

Math Mammoth Grade 8-B Worktext is the second student book for eighth grade mathematics, and part of the Math Mammoth Grade 8 complete curriculum. The book starts with chapter 5, graphing linear equations. Students study slope, and graph and write linear equations in slope-intercept and standard forms. They also learn about parallel and perpendicular lines.In chapter 6, students delve into square roots, cube roots, and irrational numbers and solve equations involving square and cube roots. The rest of the chapter is spent studying the Pythagorean Theorem and its applications. Next, in chapter 7, we focus on systems of linear equations. Students learn the three basic techniques for solving these and also solve a variety of problems that are solved with a pair of linear equations. The last chapter covers statistical topics: scatter plots and two-way tables.Features Math Mammoth focuses on conceptual understanding.
