Imagine that I give you a matchbox and a ruler and ask you to tell me the size of it. You may reply saying that the matchbox is 20 x 10 x 5mm. You cannot correctly say "the matchbox is 20mm" as this is only one aspect of its size. So it is not possible for you to describe the 3-dimensional matchbox with one unique number. Obviously the situation is more difficult for a complex shape like a grai...

Most diagrams communicate effectively despite the fact that diagrams as a group have a minium of conventions and a high tolerance for novelty. This paper proposes that the diversity and felicity of diagrammatic representation is based on three kinds of similarity between semantic propositions and spatial representations that allow people to interpret diagrams consistently with a minimum of effo...

There’s a different way to go about the problem of finding all ways of writing n = x + y. Recall that in the Gaussian integers Z[i] we have an automorphism α 7→ ᾱ. Thus the function Nα = αᾱ = x + y is multiplicative. Thus our question is just to find all ways of writing n as a norm from the Gaussian integers. To answer this question we need to know a little about the structure of Z[i]. (Note th...
