Introduction to Mathematical Thinking
Seller: Hamelyn, Madrid, M, Spain
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: Bueno. : Introducción al Pensamiento Matemático: La Formación de Conceptos en la Matemática Moderna es un estudio esclarecedor de la formación de conceptos matemáticos, atractivo para lectores con inclinaciones filosóficas. No se requiere formación matemática formal para apreciar su clara exposición de los fundamentos matemáticos. Más que un sistema de teoremas con pruebas completamente desarrolladas o ejemplos de aplicaciones, presenta una exposición coherente de ideas matemáticas que comienza con los números naturales y las leyes básicas de la aritmética, y avanza hacia los problemas del continuo de los números reales y los conceptos del cálculo. Incluye exámenes de varios tipos de números y una crítica de la extensión de los números, aritmética, geometría y la construcción rigurosa de la teoría de los enteros, los números racionales, la base de la aritmética de los números naturales y la construcción rigurosa de la aritmética elemental. Los temas avanzados abarcan el principio de inducción completa, el límite y el punto de acumulación, la operación con secuencias y el cociente diferencial, curvas notables, números reales y ultrarrealistas, y números complejos e hipercomplejos.
