Description

For over two millennia, the complexities of elementary geometry have challenged learners, burdened by the intricacies of auxiliary graphics and cumbersome calculations. Inspired by Leibniz's query, this book introduces a groundbreaking method: point geometry. By operating directly on points, it integrates the strengths of coordinate, vector, and mass point methods, simplifying operations and problem-solving.

Central to this method is the identity approach, which streamlines complex problems into concise equations, unlocking multiple propositions with ease. Through meticulously crafted examples, readers are invited to explore the joy of mathematical thinking.

Beyond mathematics, point geometry holds promise for artificial intelligence, offering a simple yet rich knowledge representation and reasoning method. With most solutions generated by computer programs, the potential for simplifying reasoning methods is immense, paving the way for a brighter future in both education and AI advancement.

In this ambitious endeavor, the authors seek to simplify knowledge representation and reasoning, reduce the burden of learning, and accelerate the progress of artificial intelligence. This book is not just a guide to geometry; it's a catalyst for transformative thinking and discovery.

A Journey Through the Wonders of Plane Geometry

ISBN: 978-981-12-9284-2 (hardcover)

Description

Geometry is often seen as one of the most beautiful aspects of mathematics. This beauty is probably a result of the fact that one can "see" this aspect of mathematics. Most people are exposed to the very basic elements of geometry throughout their schooling, concentrated in the secondary school curriculum. High schools in the United States offer one year of concentrated geometry teaching, allowing students to observe how a mathematician functions, since everything that is accepted beyond the basic axioms must be proved. However, as the course is only one year long, a great amount of geometry remains to be exposed to the general audience. That is the challenge of this book, wherein we will present a plethora of amazing geometric relationships.

We begin with the special relationship of the Golden Ratio, before considering unexpected concurrencies and collinearities. Next, we present some surprising results that arise when squares and similar triangles are placed on triangle sides, followed by a discussion of concyclic points and the relationship between circles and various linear figures. Moving on to more advanced aspects of linear geometry, we consider the geometric wonders of polygons. Finally, we address geometric surprises and fallacies, before concluding with a chapter on the useful concept of homothety, which is not included in the American year-long course in geometry.

Contents:

Introduction
The Golden Ratio in Geometry
Unexpected Concurrencies
Unexpected Collinearities
Squares on Triangle Sides
Similar Triangles on Triangle Sides
Discovering Concyclic Points
Circle Wonders
Polygons and Polygrams
Geometric Surprises
Geometric Fallacies

Readership:

This book is suitable for secondary/high school level students and teachers, as well as a general readership, particularly those interested in bridging the gaps in their knowledge of geometry.

Brownian Motion and Potential Theory, Modern and Classical

Pages: 260
ISBN: 978-981-12-9431-0 (hardcover)
ISBN: 978-981-12-9477-8 (softcover)

Description

In this book, potential theory is presented in an inclusive and accessible manner, with the emphasis reaching from classical to modern, from analytic to probabilistic, and from Newtonian to abstract or axiomatic potential theory (including Dirichlet spaces). The reader is guided through stochastic analysis featuring Brownian motion in its early chapters to potential theory in its latter sections. This path covers the following themes: martingales, diffusion processes, semigroups and potential operators, analysis of super harmonic functions, Dirichlet problems, balayage, boundaries, and Green functions.

The wide range of applications encompasses random walk models, especially reversible Markov processes, and statistical inference in machine learning models. However, the present volume considers the analysis from the point of view of function space theory, using Dirchlet energy as an inner product. This present volume is an expanded and revised version of an original set of lectures in the Aarhus University Mathematics Institute Lecture Note Series.

Contents:

Introduction
Martingales and Markov Processes
Brownian Motion and Ito-Calculus
Semigroups of Operators, Potentials, and Diffusion Equations
Harmonic Functions, Dynkin, and Transforms
Superharmonic Functions and Riesz Measures
Green Functions, Boundary Value Problems, and Kernels
Potential Theory, Capacity, Boundaries, Dirichlet Spaces, and Applications
Appendix: Kernels and More General Classes of Gaussian Processes

Readership:

Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in mathematics, statistics, finance, and engineering, especially those focusing on probability theory, stochastic processes, and mathematical analysis. It is suitable for upper-level and graduate courses in mathematics, as well as physics, engineering, theoretical computer science, probability, and statistics, and is also perfect for self-study. Readers with interest in current developments in pure and applied mathematics, students and specialists alike.
