Mathematical Tools for Physics

The way to get an intuitive understanding of the mathematics and of the physics is to analyze your solution thoroughly. Does it make sense? There are almost always several parameters that enter the problem, so what happens to your solution when you push these parameters to their limits?

Uses of Technology in Upper Secondary Mathematics Education

Uses of Technology in Upper Secondary Mathematics Education

This survey addresses the use of technology in upper secondary mathematics education from four points of view: theoretical analysis of epistemological and cognitive aspects of activity in new technology mediated learning environments, the changes brought by technology in the interactions between environment, students and teachers, the interrelations between mathematical activities and technology, skills and competencies that must be developed in teacher education.

Immersive Linear Algebra

Immersive Linear Algebra

A linear algebra book with interactive illustration. These figures will make it easier and faster to digest and to learn linear algebra. The idea is to start each chapter with an intuitive concrete example that practically shows how the math works using interactive illustrations.

The Gamma Function

The Gamma Function

The Gamma Function is the finest book dedicated to the topic of the Gamma function. It is concise and thorough, covering the most important aspects of Gamma. Written in an easily understandable manner, the book is well-suited for advanced undergraduates in science and mathematics.

Advances in Discrete Differential Geometry

Advances in Discrete Differential Geometry

In this book we take a closer look at discrete models in differential geometry and dynamical systems. The curves used are polygonal, surfaces are made from triangles and quadrilaterals, and time runs discretely.
