Symmetry and the Monster: The Story of One of the Greatest Quests of Mathematics (Ronan Mark)(Paperback) - popis produktu

Mathematics is driven forward by the quest to solve a small number of major problems--the four most famous challenges being Fermat's Last Theorem, the Riemann Hypothesis, Poincar�'s Conjecture, and the quest for the 'Monster' of Symmetry. Now, in an exciting, fast-paced historical narrative ranging across two centuries, Mark Ronan takes us on an exhilarating tour of this final mathematical quest.

Ronan describes how the quest to understand symmetry really began with the tragic young genius Evariste Galois, who died at the age of 20 in a duel. Galois, who spent the night before he died frantically scribbling his unpublished discoveries, used symmetry to understand algebraic equations, and he discovered that there were building blocks or 'atoms of symmetry.' Most of these building blocks fit into a table, rather like the periodic table of elements, but mathematicians have found
