Title: The Mathematical Trinity Imagination, Inference and Insight
Author: Balkrishna Shetty
Category: Nonfiction, Science & Nature, Mathematics, History
Language: English | 403 Pages | ISBN: 9789819618033
Description:
The book discusses nine popular propositions in Mathematics: “The Consistency Theorem” from Logic; “Isosceles Triangle Theorem” and “Pythagorean Theorem” from Geometry; “Ordered Pair Proposition” and “Mathematical Induction Principle” from Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory; “Remainder Theorem” from Number theory; “The Quadratic Equation Proposition” and “The Subgroup Theorem” from Algebra; and “Dedekind Continuum Theorem” from Analysis, and thereby covers a sufficiently wide cross-section of modern mathematical sub-domains. Using these propositions, the book primarily has three objectives: to offer a deeper appreciation of these propositions and related concepts; to provide a better understanding of their relationship with other topics of Mathematics; and, above all, to throw light on the profound nature of the discipline that has developed and advanced over the millennia through a synergistic combination of imagination, inference, and insight.
The book meticulously dissects each of these chosen propositions in separate chapters while simultaneously probing their intricate interrelationships. This approach yields a heightened appreciation of their mathematical significance, bridging the divide between educational levels. These propositions often appear poised between school-level mathematics and university-level rigour, and the book adeptly navigates this middle ground. Furthermore, it goes beyond mere logical inference, embracing the realms of imagination and insight. It offers a holistic, historical, and intellectual perspective, unravelling not just the necessity of each proposition but also its unique contributions to the fabric and evolution of Mathematics. In doing so, it sheds light on a constellation of interconnected mathematical concepts, enriching the reader’s comprehension of this remarkable discipline.
