Mathematical Puzzles (Paperback): Peter Winkler Mathematical Puzzles (Paperback)
Peter Winkler
R898 Discovery Miles 8 980 Ships in 9 - 15 working days

Research in mathematics is much more than solving puzzles, but most people will agree that solving puzzles is not just fun: it helps focus the mind and increases one's armory of techniques for doing mathematics. Mathematical Puzzles makes this connection explicit by isolating important mathematical methods, then using them to solve puzzles and prove a theorem. Features A collection of the world's best mathematical puzzles Each chapter features a technique for solving mathematical puzzles, examples, and finally a genuine theorem of mathematics that features that technique in its proof Puzzles that are entertaining, mystifying, paradoxical, and satisfying; they are not just exercises or contest problems.

Collected over several years by Peter Winkler, of Bell Labs, dozens of elegant, intriguing challenges are presented in Mathematical Puzzles. The answers are easy to explain, but without this book, devilishly hard to find. Creative reasoning is the key to these puzzles. No involved computation or higher mathematics is necessary, but your ability to construct a mathematical proof will be severly tested--even if you are a professional mathematician. For the truly adventurous, there is even a chapter on unsolved puzzles.

Jeder Mensch verfügt über eine einzigartige Art, seinen Worten Bedeutung zu verleihen: die Eigensprache. Hinter dieser Eigensprache steckt viel mehr als eine Eigenart: Eine ganze Welt von Bedeutungen, Bildern, innerem Wissen und Ressourcen. Diese Welt kann man entdecken, indem man mit einfachen Fragen den Spuren dieser Eigensprache nachgeht: mit dem Ansatz der Idiolektik.Leicht und respektvoll lädt ein idiolektisches Gespräch ein, Bedeutungen und innere Verknüpfungen zu entdecken, die für das eigene Leben und die eigene Gesundheit bedeutsam und oft verblüffend sind. Dadurch, dass der gesamte Pfad dieser Erkundungsreise komplett auf Schlüsselworten und Metaphern des Gesprächspartners aufbaut, bewegt sich die Person, die ein idiolektisches Gespräch erlebt, in einem „Heimspiel“ ohne unnötige fachsprachliche oder eingreifende Barrieren.

Earth observation from aircraft and satellites, has a key role to play in helping scientists to understand processes on a regional and global scale in all areas of the natural environment. Visible and infrared imaging systems and now, with data flowing from ERS-1, microwave, both passive and active, are of particular importance for the study of land surface processes.

Robert Tischman is just looking for a game of bridge, but when a mysterious woman persuades him to partner her in a two-session event at the Engima Club, he gets much more than that. This is a book that can be enjoyed on several levels: 1) as a fun read with lots of great bridge deals. 2) as a glimpse of what the game might be like if technology were applied to it with more imagination. 3) as an exposition of the author's ideas on encrypted bidding and encrypted signals - bids and plays where, in full compliance with the Laws of Bridge, partners can exchange information that cannot be deciphered by their opponents. Consumer warning: these methods, though fascinating and ingenious, are illegal in many bridge jurisdictions.

Die Rede von einem umfassenden medialen und sozialen Wandel ist in der Online-PR aktuell weit verbreitet. Peter Winkler unterzieht im vorliegenden Buch diese Wandlungsrhetorik einer Kritik und entwickelt einen soziologisch fundierten Alternativzugang. Drei Fragestellungen stehen dabei im Zentrum: Wie lasst sich der vielfach attestierte mediale Kontrollverlust der PR entlang inhaltlicher und technischer Vernetzungslogiken im Web erklaren? Wie kann der PR organisationale Identitatsbildung im Lichte steigender Flexibilitatsanforderungen noch gelingen? Und wie ist mit dem zunehmend evidenten Vereinbarkeitsproblem funktionaler Organisations- und partikularer Beziehungserwartungen an die PR umzugehen?

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich VWL - Finanzwissenschaft, Note: 1,3, Hochschule Aschaffenburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Seminararbeit behandelt das Thema "Spekulative Attacken," und zwar bezogen auf Wahrungssysteme mit festen Wechselkursen. Es wird dabei beschrieben, durch welche Merkmale sich ein Fixkurssystem auszeichnet. Danach wird eingegangen auf die zwei haufigsten Gefahren die durch die Fixierung des Wechselkurses und Interventionen der Zentralbanken entstehen: Das Problem der Inflation und das Liquiditatsproblem. Nachdem, auch anhand eines Beispiels, beschrieben wurde wie eine Wahrungsspekulation ablaufen kann, wird das Thema am Beispiel der Asienkrise praktisch verdeutlicht. Hierbei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf der Betrachtung Thailands.
