| | | | | We continue our exploration of what numbers are, and where mathematicians keep finding weird ones. In the first three parts we extended the natural numbers in two ways: algebraically and analytically. Those approaches gave overlapping but distinct sets of numbers. This week we combine them to get the complex numbers, and see some hints of why the complex numbers are so useful-and so frustrating. | |

| | | | | Newton's laws of motion are three physical laws that, together, laid the foundation for classical mechanics. The second law provides a differential equation for the motion: given an initial position and an initial velocity, one can find the position at any given time $latex t\ge 0$. After Newton, one might wonder why the nature behaves... | |

| | | | | Finding solutions to systems of polynomial equations is one of the oldest and deepest problems in all of mathematics. This is broadly the domain of algebraic geometry, and mathematicians wield some of the most sophisticated and abstract tools available to attack these problems. The elliptic curve straddles the elementary and advanced mathematical worlds in an interesting way. On one hand, it's easy to describe in elementary terms: it's the set of solutions to a cubic function of two variables. | |
