It includes many topics commonly found in sampler courses, like Platonic solids, Euler’s formula, irrational numbers, countable sets, permutations, and a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem. All of these topics serve a single compelling goal: understanding the mathematical patterns underlying the symmetry that we observe in the physical world around us..The exposition is engaging, precise and rigorous. The theorems are visually motivated with intuitive proofs appropriate for the intended audience. Students from all majors will enjoy the many beautiful topics herein, and will come to better appreciate the powerful cumulative nature of mathematics as these topics are woven together into a single fascinating story about the ways in which objects can be symmetric.. | 出版日期 | Textbook 20121st edition | 关键词 | Cantor’s theorem; Cayley table; Euclidean space; Euler characteristic; Platonic solid; Pythagorean Theore | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-0299-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4939-4247-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4614-0299-2 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012 |
