A small circle of knowledge, a large circle of ignorance.
Carl Sandburg, in his "The People, Yes," writes of the meeting of an Indian and a white man. The latter, impressed with his own importance, draws a small circle in the sand and says, "This is what the white man knows." The Indian, the much wiser of the two, draws an enormous circle and then correctly points out, "This is where the white man and the red man know nothing." Sandburg's story is an ...
متن کاملA TAXICAB VERSION OF A TRIANGLE' S APOLLONIUS CIRCLE
One of the most famous problems of classical geometry is the Apollonius' problem asks construction of a circle which is tangent to three given objects. These objects are usually taken as points, lines, and circles. This well known problem was posed by Apollonius of Perga ( about 262 - 190 B.C.) who was a Greek mathematician known as the great geometer of ancient times after Euclid and Archimede...
متن کاملSmall scientific journals from small countries: breaking from a vicious circle of inadequacy.
In this editorial we describe the confounding factors that contribute to the poor international recognition of small journals: author pool, review process, finances, language, and visibility. These factors originate from relative scientific inadequacy of the local environment and close a positive feedback loop (vicious circle) of journal inadequacy. We argue that small journals may provide impo...
متن کاملMixing operators and small subsets of the circle
We provide complete characterizations, on Banach spaces with cotype 2, of those linear operators which happen to be weakly mixing or strongly mixing transformations with respect to some nondegenerate Gaussian measure. These characterizations involve two families of small subsets of the circle: the countable sets, and the so-called sets of uniqueness for Fourier-Stieltjes series. The most intere...
متن کاملSome linear model techniques for analyzing small circle spherical data
The author investigates least squares as a method for fitting small circle models to a sample of unit vectors in IR. He highlights a local linear model underlying the estimation of the circle’s parameters. This model is used to construct an estimation algorithm and regression type inference procedures for the circle’s parameters. It makes it possible to compare the fit of a small circle with th...
