Chesterton, The scandal of in R. Van Gulik's The Chinese Maze
Father Brown "The point ofa pin" Murders. Growing specialization
and diversification have brought a host of monographs and textbooks
on increasingly specialized topics. However, the 'tree' of
knowledge of mathematics and related fields does not grow only by
putting forth new branches. It also happens, quite often in fact,
that branches which were thought to be completely disparate are
suddenly seen to be related. Further, the kind and level of
sophistication of mathematics applied in various sciences has
changed drastically in recent years: measure theory is used
(non-trivially) in regional and theoretical economics; algebraic
geometry interacts with physics; the Minkowsky lemma, coding theory
and the structure of water meet one another in packing and covering
theory; quantum fields, crystal defects and mathematical
programming profit from homotopy theory; Lie algebras are relevant
to filtering; and prediction and electrical engineering can use
Stein spaces.
