Mathematics of the Transcendental—A Book Review by Andrej Bauer

Book Review: Mathematics for Physicists

A book review on Mathematics for Physicists This new book by B. R. Martin and G. Shaw [1] is part of the Manchester Physics Series, a long-established set of elementary texbooks aimed primarily at providing undergraduate physics students (but also students in other physical sciences, such as astronomy, chemistry, earth and planetary science, etc.) with relatively short, self-contained courses o...

Book Review: Inevitable Randomness in Discrete Mathematics by József Beck

The beauty and utility of randomness is more than matched by its mysteries. How can we tell if a putative source of randomness (such as the frequency of the emission of electrons from a decaying radioactive material) is truly random? Indeed, how does one define randomness? Starting from the 17th century work of Pascal and Fermat, and spurred on by the 20th century axiomatic approaches of S. N. ...

Book Review: Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics by Liping Ma

Book review: Summing up mathematics teacher education

This review examines two recent collective publications that set out to survey and synthesise knowledge in the field of mathematics teacher education. Both allude to the timeliness of such an enterprise given the growth and institutionalisation of research in this field since the early to mid 1990s. They feature an extensive (and often overlapping) authorship drawn from active researchers in th...

control of the optical properties of nanoparticles by laser fields

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
