In particular, on page 37, it states that in the last part of the first millennium and the first part of the second, "Islam produced the world's leading scientists, mathematicians, architects, and artists." It may be considered only a minor discrepancy, but this implies that all the leading scientists, etc., were produced by Islam. The words "many of" should be inserted between "produced" and "the" to make the statement true. Another statement is completely inaccurate. Muslims did not

Harmony and Dissonance Many of the Greek mathematicians also used Harmony and Dissonance in their studies of mathematics. One Greek mathematician, Pythagoras, noticed that vibrating strings produced harmonious tones when the ratios of the lengths of the strings were whole numbers. Pythagoras aslo noticed that these ratios could be extended to other instruments, which allowed him to make remarkable contributions to the mathematical elements of music. Euclid, a Greek mathematician who specialized in Geometry, also conmtributed to the properties of harmony and dissonance. He found that if you take two strings in the same degree of tension, and then divide one of them exactly in half, when they are plucked, the pitch of the shorter string is exactly one octave higher than the longer. He also discovered that if the length of the two strings are in relation to each other 2:3, the difference in pitch is called a fifth. Also if the length of the strings are in relation to each other 3:4, then the difference is called a fourth. Thus the musical notation of the Greeks, which we have inherited can be expressed mathematically as 1:2:3:4 Musical harmonies are numerical ratios. A string or flute shortened to half of its original length produces a tone which is one octave higher. Ratios of 3 : 2 give a fifth and 4 : 3 give a fourth. The ratio of 3 : 4 : 5 gives the sides of a right-angled triangle, which established a connection of numbers to angles. Mathematicians classified numbers into categories of odd, even, prime, composite, perfect and amicable numbers. They used stones or pebbles in groups to form different patterns, which they classified as figurate, triangular, or square numbers.

It was the latter's influence that tended to confirm Simson's interest in the writings of the Greek mathematicians. In 1712 Simson returned to Glasgow as Professor of Mathematics. The rest of his life was spent in teaching and in research on the early Greek mathematicians - he published important works on Euclid, Pappus of Alexandria and Apollonius of Perga. This correspondence between Simson and Matthew Stewart (Professor of Mathematics at Edinburgh) was published in The proceedings of the Edinburgh Mathematical Society , vol. XXI, session 1902-1903.

GREEK MATHEMATICIANS The ancient Greeks were very interested in scientific thought. They were not satisfied with just knowing the facts; they wanted to know the why and how. It should be no surprise that the Greeks were extremely successful in the area of mathematics. The mathematics we use today, and its content, are for the most part Greek. The Greeks laid down the first principles, and invented methods for solving problems. Though most people don't realize it, mathematics is a Greek science - regardless of what modern day analysis might bring. When people look back on Greek genius, they may naturally call to mind masterpieces in Greek literature and art . But the Greeks, with their insatiable desire to know the true meaning of everything and give a rational explanation of it, were irresistibly drawn to the sciences, exact reasoning in general, and logic. There are many famous Greek names in mathematics. One of which is Aristotle , who said he could conceive of nothing more beautiful than the objects of mathematics. Plato , delighted in geometry and the wonders of numbers, inscribed, "let no one destitute of geometry enter my doors" over the entrance to his academy.

T-shirt images to be posted soon, but there's interesting reading here in the meantime. As I intend these t-shirts to be conversation pieces, I've included a discussion of each image. This way when someone asks you, "What's that t-shirt supposed to mean?" you can answer them and perhaps make a new and valued friend in the process. Archimedes' Last Stand Descartes' Delirium Pythagoras' Epiphany This image was inspired by Zeno's famous paradox... The Greek philosopher, Zeno of Elea (6th century BC), suggested that a race be arranged between Achilles (the world's swiftest runner) and a tortoise. The tortoise was to get a substantial headstart. Zeno reasoned that after a short time Achilles would close the lead to ½ its original length. Then shortly afterward, he would close that distance by a ½ to ¼ its original length. Zeno said then that Achilles would have to continue this process forever, always closing the remaining gap by ½ but never catching the tortoise. With his paradoxes, Zeno challenged the prevailing concepts of space, time, motion, extension, the continuum and the infinite. It's been speculated that the Greeks would have invented the calculus many centuries before Newton and Leibnitz had it not been for Zeno's mind bending paradoxes. Certainly the Greek mathematicians Eudoxus and Archimedes were very close.

Distinguished Lecture Series (DLS) People News Media Page UCLA Department of Mathematics Scheduled Lectures Jöran Friberg Professor Emeritus of Mathematics Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden currently visiting Dibner Institute, MIT Monday, May 21, 2001 MS 6229 4:00 p.m. "On the Babylonian Roots of Classical Greek Mathematics" Abstract: It is a generally held belief that classical Greek mathematics arose miraculously out of humble beginnings around 500 BC, invented by a handful of pioneering mathematicians, of which perhaps Pythagoras is the most well known. Recent studies have shown that this view of the origin of mathematics is not correct. Instead, classical Greek mathematics was a more or less direct continuation of the work of many anonymous Mesopotamian mathematicians during the preceding two millennia (Late Babylonian, Old Babylonian, Old Akkadian, Sumerian, and even Proto-Sumerian). This lecture will give a brief and listener-friendly sketch of some popular topics in Mesopotamian mathematics that were taken up and further developed by Greek mathematicians. The lecture begins with a discussion of the incorrectly attributed ^Theorem of Pythagoras^ and its various kinds of known Babylonian predecessors. Other topics mentioned include the Babylonian geometric method of solving quadratic equations, imperfectly copied in Book II of Euclid's Elements, as well as a Babylonian predecessor of Hippocrates' famous squaring of the lune, and various types of Babylonian geometrical constructions related to number theory, perpetuated by Euclid in a book about Division of figures.

Math and Music The History of Math and Music Ancient Greeks Pythagoras of Samos (c.582-c.507 B.C.) originated the idea of music as a branch of mathematics. The theories of Pythagorean tuning and the idea of musical intervals expressed as mathematical ratios were built upon this premise "...they saw there at the middle of the light the extremities of its fastening stretched from heaven; ... from the extremities was stretched the spindle of [the goddess] Necessity, ...And the spindle turned on the knees of Necessity, and up above on each of the rims of the circles a Siren stood, borne around in its revolution and uttering one sound, one note, and from all the eight there was the concord of a single harmony." (Plato 501-505) This is the first reference to any kind of celestial music where the paths of the heavenly bodies are described as correlating to a specific musical tone. Johannes Kepler Practical and Modern-Day Applications of Math in Music Time Signatures Mathematics are applied directly to the use of time signatures in music. You might recognize the fraction above as a time signature as it might appear on sheet music. The numerator represents how many beats will be in each measure of music; the denominator tells which note will be indicitive of the beat (by placing a one above the bottom number, you will get the fraction that represents what note it is). In this case, there are four beats per measure and the quarter note gets the beat. By using this symbol, the time signature is kept mathematically precise in order to keep the music moving. Other ways of keeping the rythm precise are by using a metronome, a device that taps out the beat of the music while a song is playing.

Some propositions are "local," in the sense that they are never used again after the book in which they appear though they could be useful in further arguments, while there are other propositions which, though not very impressive to us, are repeatedly used also by other authors. It seems that Greek mathematicians had a set of theorems and techniques, repeatedly used for their investigations. This set may have been considerably different from the set of propositions that seem important to us. Let us call this set the "tool box" of Greek mathematicians.

Ralph's Guide to the Little Dots and Dashes (PUNCTUATION The Period Milke Tomahartman best describes this most terminal of punctuation marks in her epic poem Ode to a Dot with her unforgettable stanza: ’Tis not the fact that nothing hereto will continue That makes this mark so true, More pressing is the sum That nothing more thereto will come. Though more known, and rightly so, for her grammar than her prowess with words and sounds, the renowned poetess also penned a twelve-thousand-and-six-hundred-page manuscript entitled “The Run-On Sentence.” Surely no truer supporter of the full stop has ever been known. (Surely no one questioned her capitalization of the word on in the title.) But back to the period. the period is used at the end of the sentence, following numbers in lists, and in many abbreviations, and some people find it a tasteful addition to a martini. That's pretty much it. Period. The Comma The comma is a lot like the period, the major difference being a little tail hanging down between what would be its legs if it had legs. This is a good metaphor, since the difference between the comma and the period is that the comma is a woos, causing only a pause and not a full stop. It’s kind of like a poodle in a world of Doberman pinschers and German shepherds. As editors, what we find wondrous about the comma is not the many nuances it can add to the language, or the many misreadings it can avoid; what we find most wonderful about it is this:

The circle is one of the enigma's of mathematics. It is defined as the set of points in a given plane at a given distance from a center point. From a practical position, a compass is an excellent tool for describing such a circle. It is one of the simplest concepts, a cornerstone in the edifice of mathematics. Yet, it eludes mathematical exactness. It is a constant reminder that nothing is exact, even in mathematics. It is not difficult to see why so many wise men pondered the problem in hopes of imposing order upon a reluctant nature. The earliest evidence of practical attempts to solve the problem of squaring the circle comes from the Egyptian Ahmes Papyrus(circa 1550 BC), where the area of a circle is approximated via the formula (64/81) times the diameter^2 [or 3.16 r^2]. The Egyptian's, though, are considered practical mathematicians and probably never confronted the problem formally, and legendary credit for first formal attempt is given to Anaxagorus of Clazomenae while he was in prison for a time. The problem gained importance as Greek mathematics evolved, and it eventually became such a prominent issue that it even earned ridicule from Aristophanes in his Birds , as the astronomer Meton tries to aid in the division of land(beginning in line 997) The problem of squaring the circle defeated conventional techniques of compass and straight edge, but it remained until recent times to be proven impossible. The Greeks, realizing the difficulty, were forced to turn to more complicated structures like the

Biography of Pappus of Alexandria Pappus of Alexandria flourished in the first half of the fourth century. He wrote his treatise, the Mathematical Collection , as a guide to Greek geometry. Here Pappus discusses theorems and constructions of more than thirty different mathematicians of antiquity, including Euclid , Archimedes and Ptolemy. Sometimes, as in the case of the problem of inscribing the five regular solids in a given sphere, Pappus provides alternatives to the proofs given in earlier works. In other cases, he generalizes theorems of earlier writers, as he does with the Pythagorean Theorem found in Euclid's Elements MAIN DOCUMENT CONTENTS FIRST MENTION To return to place in document from which you came, click on your browser's BACK BUTTON.
