This book consists of lectures that I have given, in Darmstadt since
1974, under various titles, for beginners or students of the third semester.
I have tried to concentrate on those themes concerning numbers, which
seem to me to be the most important on essential and historical grounds,
and which in my opinion...
In Consilience: The Unity of Knowledge, biologist Edward O. Wilson writes that a “balanced perspective cannot be acquired by studying disciplines in pieces but through pursuit of the consilience among them. Such unification will come hard. But I think it is inevitable. Intellectually it rings true, and it gratifies impulses that rise from the...
This easy-to-read book demonstrates how a simple geometric idea reveals fascinating connections and results in number theory, the mathematics of polyhedra, combinatorial geometry, and group theory. Using a systematic paper-folding procedure it is possible to construct a regular polygon with any number of sides. This remarkable algorithm has...
