A collection of papers concerning Smarandache type functions, numbers, sequences, inteqer algorithms, paradoxes, experimental geometries, algebraic structures, neutrosophic probability, set, and logic, etc.

About the works of Florentin Smarandache have been written a lot of books (he himself wrote dozens of books and articles regarding math, physics, literature, philosophy). Being a globally recognized personality in both mathematics (there are countless functions and concepts that bear his name) and literature, it is natural that the volume of writings about his research is huge. What we try to do with this encyclopedia is to gather together as much as we can both from Smarandache’s mathematical work and the works of many mathematicians around the world inspired by the Smarandache notions. We structured this book using numbered Definitions, Theorems, Conjectures, Notes and Comments, in order to facilitate an easier reading but also to facilitate references to a specific paragraph. We divided the Bibliography in two parts, Writings by Florentin Smarandache (indexed by the name of books and articles) and Writings on Smarandache notions (indexed by the name of authors). We treated, in this book, about 130 Smarandache type sequences, about 50 Smarandache type functions and many solved or open problems of number theory. We also have, at the end of this book, a proposal for a new Smarandache type notion, id est the concept of “a set of Smarandache-Coman divisors of order k of a composite positive integer n with m prime factors”, notion that seems to have promising applications, at a first glance at least in the study of absolute and relative Fermat pseudoprimes, Carmichael numbers and Poulet numbers. This encyclopedia is both for researchers that will have on hand a tool that will help them “navigate” in the universe of Smarandache type notions and for young math enthusiasts: many of them will be attached by this wonderful branch of mathematics, number theory, reading the works of Florentin Smarandache.

This book contains 34 papers, most of which were written by participants to the First Northwest Number Theory Conference held in Shangluo Teacher?s College, China, in March, 2005. In this Conference, several professors gave a talk on Smarandache Problems and many participants lectured on them both extensively and intensively. All these papers are original and have been refereed. The themes of these papers range from the mean value or hybrid mean value of Smarandache type functions, the mean value of some famous number theoretic functions acting on the Smarandache sequences, to the convergence property of some infinite series involving the Smarandache type sequences.

Scientia Magna is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research articles in all areas of mathematics and mathematical sciences. However, papers related to Smarandache’s problems are highly preferred.

Papers on Smarandache magic square, Smarandache friendly numbers, some another remarks on the generalization of Bernoulli and Euler numbers, an integral identity involving the Hermite polynomials, vinegar identifiation by ultraviolet spectrum technology and pattern recognition method, pairwise semi compact and pairwise semi lindeloff spaces, and other topics.

The Scientific Elements is an international book series, maybe with different subtitles. This series is devoted to the applications of Smarandache?s notions and to mathematical combinatorics. These are two heartening mathematical theories for sciences and can be applied to many fields. This book selects 12 papers for showing applications of Smarandache's notions, such as those of Smarandache multi-spaces, Smarandache geometries, Neutrosophy, etc. to classical mathematics, theoretical and experimental physics, logic, cosmology. Looking at these elementary applications, we can experience their great potential for developing sciences. 12 authors contributed to this volume: Linfan Mao, Yuhua Fu, Shenglin Cao, Jingsong Feng, Changwei Hu, Zhengda Luo, Hao Ji, Xinwei Huang, Yiying Guan, Tianyu Guan, Shuan Chen, and Yan Zhang.
