Mathematics and the physical world Alphabetical list of History Topics History Topics Index Version for printing What is the relation between mathematics and the physical world? For example consider Newton 's laws of motion. If we deduce results about mechanics from these laws, are we discovering properties of the physical world, or are we simply proving results in an abstract mathematical system? Does a mathematical model, no matter how good, only predict behaviour of the physical world or does it give us insight into the nature of that world? Does the belief that the world functions through simple mathematical relationships tell us something about the world, or does it only tell us something about the way humans think. In this article we explore a little of the history of the philosophy of science in order to look at differing views to the type of questions that we have just considered. The most natural starting place historically for examining the relationship between mathematics and the physical world is through the views of Pythagoras . The views of Pythagoras are only known through the views of the Pythagorean School for Pythagoras himself left no written record of his views. However the views which one has to assume originated with

Store Catapults Invented Before Theory Explained Them By Heather Whipps , Special to LiveScience posted: 09 October 2007 09:32 am ET Share this story The first catapult in Europe flung into action around the fourth century B.C., prior to the invention of mathematical models that revolutionized ancient technologies, said Mark Schiefsky, a Harvard University classics professor who led the study. "It seems that the early stages of catapult development did not involve any mathematical theory at all," Schiefsky said. "We are talking about so-called torsion artillery, basically an extension of the simple bow by means of animal sinews into something like the crossbow." When thinkers like the ancient Greek mathematician and engineer Archimedes came along in the third century B.C., devices such as the catapult were merely refined with mathematical theories and made more precise, the researchers found. In the case of the catapult, the weapon became all the more powerful and had an important political impact on warfare in the ancient world The catapult got special attention from kings because it was an effective weapon, allowing previously impermeable cities to be attacked.

Mathematical Theory of Reliability Richard Barlow and Frank Proschan Classics in Applied Mathematics 17 This monograph presents a survey of mathematical models useful in solving reliability problems. It includes a detailed discussion of life distributions corresponding to wearout and their use in determining maintenance policies, and covers important topics such as the theory of increasing (decreasing) failure rate distributions, optimum maintenance policies, and the theory of coherent systems. The emphasis throughout the book is on making minimal assumptionsand only those based on plausible physical considerationsso that the resulting mathematical deductions may be safely made about a large variety of commonly occurring reliability situations. The first part of the book is concerned with component reliability, while the second part covers system reliability, including problems that are as important today as they were in the 1960s. Mathematical reliability refers to a body of ideas, mathematical models, and methods directed toward the solution of problems in predicting, estimating, or optimizing the probability of survival, mean life, or, more generally, life distribution of components and systems. The enduring relevance of the subject of reliability and the continuing demand for a graduate-level book on this topic are the driving forces behind its republication.

Series on Advances in Mathematics for Applied Sciences - Vol. 51 LECTURE NOTES ON THE MATHEMATICAL THEORY OF GENERALIZED BOLTZMANN MODELS by Nicola Bellomo (Politecnico di Torino, Italy) (Università Roma, Italy) This book is based on the idea that Boltzmann-like modelling methods can be developed to design, with special attention to applied sciences, kinetic-type models which are called generalized kinetic models. In particular, these models appear in evolution equations for the statistical distribution over the physical state of each individual of a large population. The evolution is determined both by interactions among individuals and by external actions. Considering that generalized kinetic models can play an important role in dealing with several interesting systems in applied sciences, the book provides a unified presentation of this topic with direct reference to modelling, mathematical statement of problems, qualitative and computational analysis, and applications. Models reported and proposed in the book refer to several fields of natural, applied and technological sciences. In particular, the following classes of models are discussed: population dynamics and socio-economic behaviours, models of aggregation and fragmentation phenomena, models of biology and immunology, traffic flow models, models of mixtures and particles undergoing classic and dissipative interactions.

Much of our research has been stimulated by scientific programs of the Tallinn Research Group (TRG) and the Russian Academy of Noosphere The HS is a parallel information processing system consisting of intercommunicating identical finite automata. Although homogeneous structures will be the usual term throughout this book, It should be borne in mind that cellular automata iterative networks etc. are essentially synonymous. We can interpret HS as the theoretical framework of artificial parallel information processing systems. From the logical point of view the classical HS is an infinite automaton with characteristic cellular internal structure.

Site Map (John) Blake Temple Home page: http://www.math.ucdavis.edu/~temple/ Position: Professor Year joining UC Davis: Degree: Ph.D., 1980, University of Michigan Refereed publications: Via Math Reviews Professor Blake Temple's primary field of research is the mathematical theory of shock waves. He is currently involved in developing a theory of shock wave propagation for the Einstein equations of general relativity. Professor Temple has spent two decades contributing to the mathematical theory of shock waves. His early work was on geometrical aspects of shock wave interactions, c.f. . In 1965, James Glimm introduced the idea that the study of weak solutions with shock waves could be reduced to a study of wave interactions. Glimm's paper revolutionized the subject, and his ideas and methods of analysis remain the foundation of the mathematical theory to this day. Temple's recent focus has been on the theory of shock-wave propagation in general relativity. . In , Temple and his co-worker Smoller were the first to construct an exact shock-wave solution of the Einstein equations that models a blast wave. In this model, the shock-wave discontinuity is in the curvature of spacetime itself. Temple and Smoller have gone on to construct several examples of shock waves in general relativity, including a model for the expanding universe in which a shock wave is present at the leading edge of the expansion of the galaxies that we measure by the Hubble constant

Encyclopaedia of Mathematics M Article referred from Article refers to Mathematical theory of computation The last twenty years have witnessed most vigorous growth in areas of mathematical study connected with computers and computer science. The enormous development of computers and the resulting profound changes in scientific methodology have opened new horizons for the science of mathematics at a speed without parallel during the long history of mathematics. Because of reasons outlined above, mathematics plays a central role in the foundations of computer science. A number of significant research areas can be listed in this connection. It is interesting to note that these areas also reflect the historical development of computer science. 1) The classical computability theory initiated by the work of A. Tarski A. Church E. Post A. Turing , and S.C. Kleene occupies a central position. This area is rooted in mathematical logic (cf. Computable function 2) In classical formal language and automata theory, the central notions are those of an automaton , a grammar (cf., e.g.

This has spurred great excitement in the atomic physics community and renewed the interest in studying collective dynamics of macroscopic ensembles of atoms occupying the same one-particle quantum state and quantized vortex in superfluidity. Theoretical predictions of the properties of BEC like the density profile, collective excitations and the formation of quantized vortices can now be compared with experimental data.

Mathematical Methods of Population Genetics The mathematical methods of population genetics theory characterize quantitatively the gene distribution dynamics in evolving populations [1-3]. There are two types of models: deterministic and stochastic. Deterministic models are based on the approximation of an infinitely large population size. In this case the fluctuations of gene frequencies (in a gene distribution) can be neglected and the population dynamics can be described in terms of the mean gene frequencies. The stochastic models describe the probabilistic processes in finite size populations. Here we review very briefly the main equations and mathematical methods of population genetics by considering the most representative examples. Deterministic models Let's consider a population of diploid organisms with several alleles A A A K in some locus . We assume that the organism fitness is determined mainly by the considered locus. Designating the number of organisms and the fitness of the gene pair A i A j by n ij and W ij , respectively, we can introduce the genotype and gene frequencies P ij and P i , as well as the mean gene fitnesses W i in accordance with the expressions [1,2,4]:

skip to main skip to sidebar Absolutely Regular A math/computer science research blog Monday, January 15, 2007 Transgressing the Boundaries: Toward a Non-Hegemonic Feminist Mathematical Theory The title is an homage to Alan Sokal's witty demonstration of the vapidity of the whole postmodernism industry. I've always considered myself rather fortunate, as a mathematician, to engage in research safely outside the reach of the PC commissars. Yet every now and again the hydra thrusts one of its many heads into our pristine art; this time, under the heading of "social justice". I am not going to attempt to define justice here (I am not even sure that I can at all), but if there's one thing I'm sure of, it's that mathematics has nothing to do whatsoever with justice, or for that matter, with any aspect of the physical world. Sure physicists and engineers have used mathematical tools with great success to build scientific theories and neat gadgets. But math lives in its own separate Platonic world and we mere mortals can only hope for an occasional peek inside (much as no one "invented" electricity, there are no mathematical "inventions", only discoveries). Which brings us to this pearl of wisdom (via Alexandre Borovik The content of mathematics is typically thought of as neutral. That is, to most, mathematics is considered a domain that is devoid of ethical-moral implications. One can use mathematics for whatever purposes one wishes, but the mathematics itself is not good or bad, it just is. If I am right and mathematics classrooms frequently teach powerlessness, then the notion that mathematics is essentially neutral needs to be revisited.

From one point of view, this is a vibrant area of mathematical research that brings logical methods (in particular the theory of definition) to bear on deep problems of classical mathematics. From another point of view, first-order model theory is the paradigm for the rest of model theory ; it is the area in which many of the broader ideas of model theory were first worked out. 1.

In mathematics model theory is the study of (classes of) mathematical structures such as groups fields graphs or even models of set theory using tools from mathematical logic . Model theory has close ties to algebra and universal algebra This article focuses on finitary first order model theory of infinite structures. The model theoretic study of finite structures (for which see finite model theory ) diverges significantly from the study of infinite structures both in terms of the problems studied and the techniques used. Model theory in higher-order logics or infinitary logics is hampered by the fact that completeness does not in general hold for these logics.

A Mathematical Theory of Interface Aesthetics David Chek Ling Ngo and Lian Seng Teo Faculty of Information Technology Multimedia University 63100 Cyberjaya, Malaysia John G. Byrne Department of Computer Science Trinity College Dublin 2, Ireland john.byrne@cs.tcd.ie Abstract An important aspect of screen design is aesthetic evaluation of screen layouts. While it is conceivable to define a set of variables that characterize the key attributes of many alphanumeric display formats, such a task seems difficult for graphic displays because of their much greater complexity. This article proposes a theoretical approach to capture the essence of artists' insights with fourteen aesthetic measures for graphic displays. The formalized measures include balance, equilibrium, symmetry, sequence, cohesion, unity, proportion, simplicity, density, regularity, economy, homogeneity, rhythm, and order and complexity. The paper concludes with some thoughts on the direction which future research should take.

Econometrics Econometrics Econometrics is derived from several disciplines, including mathematical economics, statistics, economic statistics, and economic theory. The goal of econometrics is twofold: to give economic theory empirical data and to empirically verify it. It is a study that produces measurements, where qualitative data is turned into quantitative mathematical forms. Once this is performed, these statements can then be empirically proven, disproven, measured, and compared. Despite common assumption, econometrics is not statistics, differing in one important aspect: the study of statistics is performed in controlled experiments, whereas econometrics often has to deal with data as is. An important tool used in econometrics is regression analysis , which can further be divided into time-series analysis, and cross-sectional analysis. Time-series analysis examines and measures variables over a certain period of time. Cross-sectional analysis studies the correlation between different variables at a point in time. Time-series and cross-sectional analysis can be performed simultaneously on the same sample, which is then called panel analysis. However, like many statistical methods, econometrics has garnered several criticisms, especially in the 1970s. Econometrics can produce inaccurate results if, for instance, a relationship between two variables is measured linearly when it should be curved. There are several

Previous session Next session Session HE - Nuclear Theory II. ORAL session, Saturday afternoon, October 12 Room 103 A/B, Kellogg Center [HE.001] A Multi-Shell Shell Model For Heavy Nuclei Yang Sun (University of Notre Dame), Cheng-Li Wu (National Center for Theoretical Sciences, Hsinchu 300, Taiwan) The difficulty of performing a shell model calculation for heavy nuclei has been a long-standing problem in nuclear physics. Because of this, the study of nuclear structure in heavy nuclei has relied mainly on the mean field approximations. However, the necessity of the proper quantum mechanical treatment of nuclear states has been growing, and we are now facing the challenge of understanding the nuclear structure problems in many exotic systems that are important for nuclear astrophysics. Great effort has been devoted to developing a shell model for heavy nuclear system, but still there is a long way to go. The current large-scale shell model diagonalization can be best applied only up to the full pf-shell space. We propose a multi-shell shell model for heavy nuclei. The central idea of this proposal is to take the advantages of two existing models: the Projected Shell Model (PSM) [1] and the Fermion Dynamical Symmetry Model (FDSM) [2]. The PSM treats successfully the quasi-particle excitations and their coupling to the rotational motion, whereas the FDSM handles efficiently various low-spin collective excitation modes from the spherical to the well-deformed region. The new model that we suggest is able to describe simultaneously the single-particle and the collective excitations, yet keeping the model space tractable even for the heaviest system.

Country; Japan Language; Japanese Abstract; The Navier-Stokes (NS) system of equations is a central paradigm of nonlinear partial differential equations describing nonintegrable dynamics. The mathematical analysis of the NS system invokes a priori estimates for the energy and enstrophy. The difficulty stemming from the vortex-tube stretching effect is explained. By replacing the convective nonlinear term by a random noise term, one can develop a statistical model of turbulence. The mathematical framework of such modeling is also reviewed. (author abst.)

Read This! The MAA Online book review column An Introduction to the Mathematical Theory of Waves by Roger Knobel Reviewed by Mark McKibben An Introduction to the Mathematical Theory of Waves Mathematical Models: Mechanical Vibrations, Population Dynamics, and Traffic Flow ). These topics include a discussion of the method of characteristics, shocks, gradient catastrophes, and the notion of a weak solution. Appropriate use of computer-algebra systems (primarily Matlab) is integrated throughout the text rather than being relegated to the end of the chapters as a "Lab Activity." The technology is used as the need for it naturally arises, for example when it helps to visualize the concept being presented. As a reader, at no time did I feel that the usage of the computer was contrived. (The necessary code is provided within the context of the material for the reader's convenience.) The exposition of the material is very clear. Particularly close attention is devoted to bridging the gap between the physical and mathematical elements of the theory, as well as providing all crucial computational details. This aids in the development of the reader's intuition of the subject. The book practically invites the reader to take this journey and it is written in such a way that the reader is not likely to get lost along the way. All in all, this book provides a sturdy bridge from a course on ordinary differential equations, and so I would recommend it, without batting an eyelash, to any of my differential equations students who wish to continue their study independently. Further, I feel that it could be very useable as a text for a first course in partial differential equations.

The science of Artificial Intelligence (AI) might be defined as the construction of intelligent systems and their analysis. A natural definition of systems is anything which has an input and an output stream. Intelligence is more complicated. It can have many faces like creativity solving problems pattern recognition classification learning induction deduction building analogies optimization surviving in an environment language processing knowledge and many more. A formal definition incorporating every aspect of intelligence, however, seems difficult. An important observation is that most, if not all known facets of intelligence can be formulated as goal driven or, more precisely, as maximizing some utility function. It is, therefore, sufficient to study goal driven AI. E.g. the (biological) goal of animals and humans is to survive and spread. The goal of AI systems should be to be useful to humans. The problem is that, except for special cases, we know neither the utility function, nor the environment in which the system will operate, in advance. The mathematical theory, coined AIXI, (see next item) represents a formal solution of these problems. Universal Artificial Intelligence.

Search Site Algebra Applied Mathematics Calculus and Analysis ... Model Theory Model Theory Model theory is a general theory of interpretations of axiomatic set theory . It is the branch of logic studying mathematical structures by considering first-order sentences which are true of those structures and the sets which are definable in those structures by first-order formulas (Marker 1996). Mathematical structures obeying axioms in a system are called "models" of the system. The usual axioms of analysis are second order and are known to have the real numbers as their unique model. Weakening the axioms to include only the first-order ones leads to a new type of model in what is called nonstandard analysis SEE ALSO: Khovanski's Theorem Nonstandard Analysis Wilkie's Theorem [Pages Linking Here] REFERENCES: Doets, K.

Public release date: 28-Nov-2005 E-mail Article Contact: Eric Mankin mankin@usc.edu University of Southern California Surprise! Computer scientists model the exclamation point Two Southern California engineers have created a mathematical theory of surprise, working from first principles of probability theory applied to a digital environment and the results of experiments recording eye movements of volunteers watching video seem to confirm it. Laurent Itti of the University of Southern California's Viterbi School of Engineering and Pierre Baldi of the University of California Irvine's Institute for Genomics and Bioinformatics, will present their results December 7, at the Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS) Conference in Vancouver, B.C. Itti and Baldi went back to first principles in developing their theory, taking off from fundamental work by Claude Shannon creating (in the title of his classic 1948 paper) "A Mathematical Theory of Communication." The pair's mathematical theory of surprise proposes an alternative mode for characterizing and quantifying information, distinct from Shannon's model a subjective one. Shannon's technique is not about a specific observer, but any observer seeking to pick out a message from its noisy environment, or send one with an assurance it will be read accurately, according to Itti, a research assistant professor in the Viterbi School's department of computer science.

AV Check A Mathematical Theory for the Spread of Computer Viruses Winfried Gleissner ISSN 0167-4048 February 1989 Download PDF file (400.13Kb) Back to index Industrieanlagen-Betriebgesellschaft mbH, Ottobrunn, FRG A model is introduced to treat the spread of computer viruses mathematically. A recurrence formula is given which allows a closed expression to be derived for the probability that, starting from an initial state, a given viral state will be reached after executing exactly k programs. In some special cases this recurrence formula can be used for numeric computations, It is shown that the infection process does not stop before all programs are infected, which are visible for any infected program in the initial state. Keywords: Computer viruses, Mathematical model of virus infection 1. The Situation A computer virus is a program that can reproduce itself and modify other programs by including a possibly evolved copy of itself [1]. That means that whenever an infected program is called, the virus is implanted into another program, if there is any, of the account from where it was called. In refs 1 and 2 some experiments with this kind of program are described. The result was that within a few hours the whole computer system was infected. The aim of this paper is to develop a closed expression for the probability that any given program is infected after a given time. To achieve this aim it must be known which programs were initially infected and for each program one needs the probability that it is called. The use of a computer is regarded as a sequence of program calls.

67. The Mathematical Theory Of Listing This article presents a mathematical model which allows one to answer this . Mundie, David A. The mathematical Theory of Birding / David A. Mundie http://www.anthus.com/Birds/Ornimax.html

The Mathematical Theory of Listing Any birder seriously interested in increasing his or her lifelist is frequently confronted with the question: "How may I best allocate my limited resources so as to maximize the number of new species on my list?" This article presents a mathematical model which allows one to answer this question, and a computer program, OrniMax, which applies the model to cencrete situations. In what follows, the theory is explained, for simplicity's sake, in terms of life birds, but it should be obvious that the same procedure can be applied to trip lists, year lists, state lists, or any other subset of birds in which a birder is interested. The mathematical formulations have been supplied, but they should not blind the non-mathematical reader to the broad outlines of the theory, nor to its practical applications. The mathematical theory of listing must address itself to three separate but interrelated questions. The ultimate question is: "Where should I go to get the greatest number of lifers?" This question can be answered only if, given a specific itinerary, one can answer the simpler question, "How many lifers may I expect to get if I make this trip?" And this in turn can be known only if one can answer, "What is the probability that I would see species j if I spent h hours birding at site i?" We shall take up these three questions in reverse order. 1. Species visibility.

List of Contributors with Affiliations Model Theory and Tame Mathematics A. Pillay There are a number of ways in which modern logic affects mathematics, science and technology. This is maybe most obvious in the theory and practice of computation where the first rigorous models of computation were provided by the "recursion-theorists." One expects this to continue and deepen, especially at the level of software specification and verification. However, I wish to discuss recent and possible future developments in model theory (a branch of mathematical logic) which have foundational imports of a rather different nature, in which general frameworks for understanding non-pathological behavior have been developed. Abraham Robinson, who developed nonstandard analysis as well as the theory of model-completeness, was a pioneer of this kind of work. Other early work in this direction was Tarski's decision procedure for elementary Euclidean geometry
