The impasse in math and science instruction runs deeper than test scores or the latest educational theory. What can we learn from the best teachers on the front
arXiv.org (genannt „The Archive“) ist ein Archiv für Preprints (auch e-prints oder eprints genannt) aus den Bereichen Physik, Mathematik, Informatik und Biologie.
"It is not certain that everything is uncertain." is one of the many profound insights that philosopher and mathematician Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) published in his seminal work entiteled "Pensées" (Thoughts, published in 1669). He literally had versatile scientific interests, as he provided influential contributions in the field of mathematics, physics, engineering, as well as in religious philosophy.
ZAMP was founded in 1950 and translates into "Journal of Applied Mathematics and Physics"
Publishes peer-reviewed scientific papers and brief reports in Fluid Mechanics, Mechanics of Solids
and Differential Equations/Applied Mathematics
Coverage extends to original work in neighbouring domains
The Journal of Applied Mathematics and Physics (ZAMP) publishes papers of high scientific quality in Fluid Mechanics, Mechanics of Solids and Differential Equations/Applied Mathematics. A paper will be considered for publication if at least one of the following conditions is fulfilled:
The paper includes results or discussions which can be considered original and highly interesting.
The paper presents a new method.
The author reviews a problem or a class of problems with such profound insight that further research is encouraged.
The readers of ZAMP will find not only articles in their own special field but also original work in neighbouring domains. This will lead to an exchange of ideas; concepts and methods which have proven to be successful in one field may well be useful to other areas. ZAMP attempts to publish articles reasonably quickly. Longer papers are published in the section "Original Papers", shorter ones may appear under "Brief Reports" where publication is particularly rapid. The journal includes a "Book Review" section and provides information on activities (such as upcoming symposia, meetings or special courses) which are of interest to its readers.
In mathematics, II25,1 is the even 26-dimensional Lorentzian unimodular lattice. It has several unusual properties, arising from Conway's discovery that it has a norm zero Weyl vector. In particular it is closely related to the Leech lattice, and has the Conway group Co1 at the top of its automorphism group.
Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beautya beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show. The true spirit of delight, the exaltation, the sense of being more than Man, which is the touchstone of the highest excellence, is to be found in mathematics as surely as in poetry.
