Pure Mathematics For Beginners

Pure Mathematics for Beginners - Solution GuideThis book contains complete solutions to the problems in the 16 Problem Sets in Pure Mathematics for Beginners. Note that this book references examples and theorems from Pure Mathematics for Beginners. Therefore, it is strongly suggested that you purchase a copy of that book before purchasing this one.

In recent years, Artificial Intelligence researchers have largely focused their efforts on solving specific problems, with less emphasis on 'the big picture' - automating large scale tasks which require human-level intelligence to undertake. The subject of this book, automated theory formation in mathematics, is such a large scale task. Automated theory formation requires the invention of new concepts, the calculating of examples, the making of conjectures and the proving of theorems. This book, representing four years of PhD work by Dr. Simon Colton demonstrates how theory formation can be automated. Building on over 20 years of research into constructing an automated mathematician carried out in Professor Alan Bundy's mathematical reasoning group in Edinburgh, Dr. Colton has implemented the HR system as a solution to the problem of forming theories by computer. HR uses various pieces of mathematical software, including automated theorem provers, model generators and databases, to build a theory from the bare minimum of information - the axioms of a domain. The main application of this work has been mathematical discovery, and HR has had many successes. In particular, it has invented 20 new types of number of sufficient interest to be accepted into the Encyclopaedia of Integer Sequences, a repository of over 60,000 sequences contributed by many (human) mathematicians.

This text for a second course in linear algebra, aimed at math majors and graduates, adopts a novel approach by banishing determinants to the end of the book and focusing on understanding the structure of linear operators on vector spaces. The author has taken unusual care to motivate concepts and to simplify proofs. For example, the book presents - without having defined determinants - a clean proof that every linear operator on a finite-dimensional complex vector space has an eigenvalue. The book starts by discussing vector spaces, linear independence, span, basics, and dimension. Students are introduced to inner-product spaces in the first half of the book and shortly thereafter to the finite- dimensional spectral theorem. A variety of interesting exercises in each chapter helps students understand and manipulate the objects of linear algebra. This second edition features new chapters on diagonal matrices, on linear functionals and adjoints, and on the spectral theorem; some sections, such as those on self-adjoint and normal operators, have been entirely rewritten; and hundreds of minor improvements have been made throughout the text.

Distills key concepts from linear algebra, geometry, matrices, calculus, optimization, probability and statistics that are used in machine learning.

Pure Mathematics for Pre-BeginnersPure Mathematics for Pre-Beginners consists of a series of lessons in Logic, Set Theory, Abstract Algebra, Number Theory, Real Analysis, Topology, Complex Analysis, and Linear Algebra. The 8 lessons in this book cover elementary material from each of these 8 topics. A "pre-beginner" is a math student that is ready to start learning some more advanced mathematics, but is not quite ready to dive into proofwriting. Pure Mathematics for Pre-Beginners is perfect for students wishing to begin learning advanced mathematics, but that are not quite ready to start writing proofs. high school teachers that want to expose their students to the ideas of advanced mathematics without getting into mathematical rigor. professors that wish to introduce higher mathematics to non-stem majors. The material in this pure math book includes: 8 lessons in 8 subject areas. Examples and exercises throughout each lesson. A problem set after each lesson arranged by difficulty level. A complete solution guide is included as a downloadable PDF file.
