Product Description: Second Year Calculus: From Celestial Mechanics to Special Relativity covers multi-variable and vector calculus, emphasizing the historical physical problems which gave rise to the concepts of calculus. The book guides us from the birth of the mechanized view of the world in Isaac Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy in which mathematics becomes the ultimate tool for modelling physical reality, to the dawn of a radically new and often counter-intuitive age in Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity in which it is the mathematical model which suggests new aspects of that reality...read more

Product Description: This introduction to recent developments in algebraic combinatorics illustrates how research in mathematics actually progresses. The author recounts the dramatic search for and discovery of a proof of a counting formula conjectured in the late 1970s: the number of n x n alternating sign matrices, objects that generalize permutation matrices...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

This text will be a modern introduction to number theory, a course taught at most colleges and universities, primarily to math and c.s. majors, and will place heavy and continuing emphasis on algorithmic aspects of the subject. The language of the algorithms used will be the popular Mathematica, and a comprehensive set of notebooks will be included on a book web site. While the emphasis will be on modern topics like factorization and primality testing techniques, there will be extensive coverage of traditional number theory. Among its features willbe lots of displayed computations, and the inclusion of many computer exercises for students.
