Book Description
Questo testo mira sia ad una trattazione rigorosa della materia che a fare acquisire allo studente quei concetti base che gli permettano di avere della materia stessa una visione che, a parere dell’autore, è di una certa profondità e sintesi. Ciascun concetto è stato presentato in quello che, almeno agli occhi dell’autore, appare essere il suo ambiente naturale. È stato fatto uno sforzo affinché le ipotesi degli enunciati siano quelle naturali all’enunciato stesso e non altre magari adatte ad una presentazione più spiccia, anche a costo di richiedere allo studente un impegno iniziale maggiore. Numerosi sono gli esercizi, molti di questi svolti. Il loro livello è generalmente adeguato anche nel caso in cui il docente decida di tralasciare dal programma molti degli aspetti teorici del libro ed intenda rivolgersi ad un pubblico con minori pretese teoriche. Il testo è rivolto sia a studenti dei corsi di laurea in matematica che ad altri di carattere scientifico. Può essere adottato anche in corsi di ingegneria, facendo però accurati tagli e alcune integrazioni.
Algebraic Geometry between Tradition and Future
Author: Gilberto Bini
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811982813
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
An incredible season for algebraic geometry flourished in Italy between 1860, when Luigi Cremona was assigned the chair of Geometria Superiore in Bologna, and 1959, when Francesco Severi published the last volume of the treatise on algebraic systems over a surface and an algebraic variety. This century-long season has had a prominent influence on the evolution of complex algebraic geometry - both at the national and international levels - and still inspires modern research in the area. "Algebraic geometry in Italy between tradition and future" is a collection of contributions aiming at presenting some of these powerful ideas and their connection to contemporary and, if possible, future developments, such as Cremonian transformations, birational classification of high-dimensional varieties starting from Gino Fano, the life and works of Guido Castelnuovo, Francesco Severi's mathematical library, etc. The presentation is enriched by the viewpoint of various researchers of the history of mathematics, who describe the cultural milieu and tell about the bios of some of the most famous mathematicians of those times.

Mathematical Analysis

Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
For more than two thousand years some familiarity with mathematics has been regarded as an indispensable part of the intellectual equipment of every cultured person. Today the traditional place of mathematics in education is in grave danger. Unfortunately, professional representatives of mathematics share in the reponsibiIity. The teaching of mathematics has sometimes degen erated into empty drill in problem solving, which may develop formal ability but does not lead to real understanding or to greater intellectual indepen dence. Mathematical research has shown a tendency toward overspecialization and over-emphasis on abstraction. Applications and connections with other fields have been neglected . . . But . . . understanding of mathematics cannot be transmitted by painless entertainment any more than education in music can be brought by the most brilliant journalism to those who never have lis tened intensively. Actual contact with the content of living mathematics is necessary. Nevertheless technicalities and detours should be avoided, and the presentation of mathematics should be just as free from emphasis on routine as from forbidding dogmatism which refuses to disclose motive or goal and which is an unfair obstacle to honest effort. (From the preface to the first edition of What is Mathematics? by Richard Courant and Herbert Robbins, 1941.

Mathematical Analysis
Author: Nicola Fusco
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031041518
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 678
Book Description
This work is a textbook on Mathematical Analysis written by expert lecturers in the field. This textbook, other than the classical differentiation and integration tools for functions of several real variables, metric spaces, ordinary differential equations, implicit function and so on, also provides opportunities to go deeper into certain topics: among them, the Ascoli-Arzelà theorem, the regularity of convex functions in R^n, L^p spaces and absolutely continuous functions, all topics that are paramount in modern Mathematical Analysis. Other instances include the Weierstrass theorem on polynomial approximation of continuous functions or Peano's existence theorem (typically only existence, without uniqueness) for nonlinear ODEs and systems under general assumptions. The content is discussed in an elementary way and, at a successive stage, some topics are examined from several, more penetrating, angles. The agile organization of the subject matter helps instructors to effortlessly determine which parts to present during lectures and where to stop. The authors believe that any textbook can contribute to the success of a lecture course only to a point, and the choices made by lecturers are decisive in this respect. The book is addressed to graduate or undergraduate honors students in Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy, Computer Science, Statistics and Probability, attending Mathematical Analysis courses at the Faculties of Science, Engineering, Economics and Architecture.

The International Commission on Mathematical Instruction, 1908-2008: People, Events, and Challenges in Mathematics Education
Author: Fulvia Furinghetti
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031043138
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 754
Book Description
The book presents the history of ICMI trough a prosopographical approach. In other words, it pays a lot of attention to the actors of the International movement. The portraits of the members of the ICMI Central Committees (1908-1936) and ICMI Executive Committees (1952-2008), and other eminent figures in ICMI history, who have passed away in the first 100 years of its life, are the guiding thread of the volume. Each portrait includes: · Biographical information · An outline of the various contributions made by the individual in question to the study of problems pertaining to mathematics teaching/education · Primary bibliography · Secondary with particular attention to the publications concerning the teaching of mathematics · Images: photos, book frontispieces, relevant manuscripts The authors of the portraits (30 altogether) are researchers in the history of mathematics, mathematics, and mathematics education. The focus on the officer’s role within ICMI and on his/her contributions to mathematics education, make the portraits different from usual biographies. In particular, since most officers were active mathematicians, the portraits shed light on aspects of their lesser-known activity. Connecting chapters place the action of these figures in the historical context and in the different phases of ICMI history.
