چکیده
4. Derivation and Computation: taking the Curry-Howard correspondence seriously by Harold Simmons. Review by Robert J. Irwin. My short description can do no better than to quote the review itself: Simmons’s text, whose thrust is pedagogical, intends to be a notquite-one-stop-shopping experience for readers interested in the interplay between the kinds of symbol-pushing undertaken in logic and in computation.

متن کاملNotes on Algebraic Numbers
This is a summary of my 1994–1995 course on Algebraic Numbers. (Revised and improved on 1993– 1994!) The background assumed is standard elementary number theory—as found in my Level III course—and a little (Abelian) group theory. Corrections and suggestions for improvement are welcome, and will be credited in future editions! I first learned algebraic number theory from Stewart & Tall’s book ([...

متن کاملPolynomial and Matrix Computations Volume 1: Fundamental Algorithms (Dario Bini and Victor Pan)
Article: The past few decades have produced a wealth of interesting and useful work in the area of algorithms for algebraic, symbolic, and numerical computing. Unfortunately, there has been a huge void in the area of books summarizing and bringing together the core results of algebraic computation, with the two main exceptions being Borodin and Munro's excellent book The Computational Complexit...
