MATH 15, CLS 15 — Spring 2020 Problem Set 1, Due 24 January 2020 MATH 15, CLS 15 — Spring 2020 Problem set 1, due 24 January 2020 General instructions for the semester: You may use any references you like for these assignments, though you should not need anything beyond the books on the syllabus and the specified web sites. You may work with your classmates provided you all come to your own conclusions and write up your own solutions separately: discussing a problem is a really good idea, but letting somebody else solve it for you misses the point. When a question just asks for a calculation, that’s all you need to write — make sure to show your work! But if there’s a “why” or “how” question, your answer should be in the form of coherent paragraphs, giving evidence for the statements you make and the conclusions you reach. Papers should be typed (double sided is fine) and handed in at the start of class on the due date. 1. What is mathematics? Early in the video you watched, du Sautoy says the fundamental ideas of mathematics are “space and quantity”; later he says that “proof is what gives mathematics its strength.” English Wikipedia tells us “mathematics includes the study of such topics as quantity, structure, space, and change,” while Simple English Wikipedia says “mathematics is the study of numbers, shapes, and patterns.” In French Wikipedia´ we read “mathematics is a collection of abstract knowledge based on logical reasoning applied to such things as numbers, forms, structures, and transformations”; in German, “mathematics is a science that started with the study of geometric figures and calculations with numbers”; and in Spanish, “mathematics is a formal science with, beginning with axioms and continuing with logical reasoning, studies the properties of and relations between abstract objects like numbers, geometric figures, or symbols” (all translations mine). These descriptions don’t all say quite the same thing, but are they consistent with each other? What different impressions of mathematics do they give? Are there activities that would be considered mathematical under one of these definitions but not another? Discuss, in an essay of about 300–500 words. 2. Sources for the history of mathematics. Our knowledge of Egyptian mathematics depends mainly on a couple of hand-written texts on papyrus; for the Ahmes papyrus (or Rhind papyrus), we don’t even have the entire roll, and the pieces we do have are in several different museums. We know Babylonian mathematics principally from a collection of hand-written texts on clay tablets, and, once again, some are broken or otherwise damaged. • Are these sources sufficient to give us the whole picture of Egyptian or Babylonian mathematics? Explain. • What problems arise from the present state of the sources we have? • Nowadays, mathematicians write mathematics on computers, and the first publication of a new mathematical text is often at a web site called the arXiv (arxiv.org, pronounced “archive”). Later, the text may appear in a scholarly journal or a book, which is probably published on line and may or may not also appear in print. Suppose you are a historian of mathematics living in 3020 and looking back a thousand years to the 21st century. What sources will you find? Will they be complete? Will you be able to read them? 3. Explanations, like those in the ancient texts. Multiply 231 and 732. Don’t use a calculator or computer, but write out the multiplication by hand the way you were probably taught in third or fourth grade. Now, explain in words how to do that multiplication, or any multiplication like that one. How do you know you’ve got the right answer? And how do you know the method you used always gives the right answer (assuming you haven’t made a mistake)? MATH 15, CLS 15 — Spring 2020 Problem set 2, due 31 January 2020 1. Reading Egyptian numerals. Write the following numerals in the modern Western system (the Hindu-Arabic system). a. 2|| b. 22 |||| 222 |||| c. 3 22 d. 4322| e. 433|||| f. r ||| g. r 2| h. r 22 2. Writing Egyptian numerals. Write the following numerals in the Egyptian system. a. 37 b. 94 c. 125 d. 1852 e. 2020 f. 1/2 g. 1/10 h. 1/17 Problems 3, 4, and 5 are on the reverse. 3. Egyptian fractions. Here are some ordinary fractions. Write them as an Egyptian would, that is, as sums of unit fractions; you can also use 2/3 if it’s useful. First write as actual fractions, then as over-barred numerals. Write at least two of them using Egyptian numerals, too. For example, given 3/4 you would write 1/2 + 1/4 (actual fraction), then 2 4 (over-barred), then r r (Egyptian style). || |||| Remember you can’t use the same unit fraction twice! a. 5/6 b. 5/8 c. 2/5 d. 2/15 e. 3/10 Optional additional question, a bit more challenging: There is always more than one way to write a fraction Egyptian-style. Write at least one of the numbers above as a different sum of Egyptian fractions. For example, 3/4 = 1/2 + 1/4 but you could also write it as 2/3 + 1/12 or 1/2 + 1/6 + 1/12, or any number of other ways. Is one version “better” than another? Why? (This means you have to decide what “better” means here, of course.) 4. Egyptian calculation. Multiply 231 and 732 using the Egyptian method: pick one or the other number to start with, match it up with 1, double each column, and so on. This is the same multiplication you did on the last problem set; which way is easier? Of course you got the same answer in this example; can you determine if the Egyptian method will always work? Can you say why or why not? 5. Social context of Egyptian mathematics. What does the content of the Ahmes Papyrus (and of the other Egyptian texts) tell us about who does mathematics in Egypt, and about what they do with it? Think about what kinds of problems appear in the sources, but also about what’s in the text other than problems. Discuss, in about 300–500 words. MATH 15, CLS 15 — Spring 2020 Problem set 3, due 7 February 2020 1. Egyptian geometry: volumes. Problem 41 of the Ahmes papyrus asks for the volume of a cylindrical granary whose diameter is 9 cubits and whose height is 10 cubits. Here is how Ahmes works it out. Take away 1/9 of 9, namely 1; this makes 8. Multiply 8 times 8; this is 64. Multiply 64 times 10; this gives 640 cubic cubits. Add 1/2 of it to it; that makes 960, which is the content of the granary in khar. Take 1/20 of 960, which is 48: then 4800 hekat of grain go into the granary. You’ll need to know that a khar is a measure of volume, 2/3 of a cubic cubit. There are 20 hekat to a khar, and as you know hekat is the usual volume measure for grain. What is Ahmes actually doing here? Where does he get the numbers he uses? His method does not actually give the right answer: why not? Is it pretty close? (You’ll need to compare his result to the result you’d get if you use the actual formula for the volume of a cylinder; if you don’t remember it, the Wikipedia article “Cylinder” will tell you.) Consider a similar problem (not in the papyrus): suppose the granary has a diameter of 3 cubits and a height of 6 cubits. Work out the calculation using the same method as in the papyrus, and then give the actual answer. 2. Babylonian numerals: the base–60 system. The following are Babylonian numerals in the conventional transliteration. Express them as ordinary numerals in the modern Western system. a. 1, 2 b. 1; 2 c. 0; 1, 2 d. 1, 4, 7 e. 1, 4; 7 f. 1; 4, 7 g. 5, 34 Here are some ordinary numbers; write them in base-60 in the conventional transliteration. If you want, you can also draw the cuneiform symbols. a. 35 b. 350 c. 65 d. 119 e. 5 1/2 f. 6 2/3 You will not be surprised to find out that there are more problems on the reverse. 3. Babylonian numerals: cuneiform. Write the following cuneiform numerals in the conven- tional transliteration, and then as ordinary numerals. Assume they are all whole numbers. The numeral is 3,5 if it represents a whole number, but the numbers transliterated as 3;5 and 0;3,5 would be written exactly the same way. For that matter, 3,5,0 would also be written this way. Return to the above list and interpret each number as a whole number plus a fraction (like 3;5): transliterate and then write in our system. 4. Babylonian arithmetic: base 60. In our base-10 system, you can look at a number and tell whether it is divisible by 2, or by 5. How do you know? What about base 60? Is there an analogous set of divisibility tests? Can you look at a base-60 num- ber and say at once whether it is divisible by 2? What other possible factors can you notice immediately using a test of the same type? For concreteness, apply your tests to the following base-60 numbers. For example, if you were working in base 10 and you were given 15, you’d say it is divisible by 5, and it isn’t divisible by 2.

    CHAPTER 9. AN INTRODUCTION TO LECTIONARY 299 (A.C. MYSHRALL) Codex Zacynthius, as it is currently bound, is a near-complete Greek gospel lectionary dating to the late twelfth century. Very little work has been done on this lectionary because of the intense interest in the text written underneath. Indeed, New Testament scholars have generally neglected most lectionaries in favour of working on continuous text manuscripts.1 This is largely down to the late date of most of the available lectionaries as well as the assumption that they form a separate, secondary, textual tradition. However, the study of Byzantine lectionaries is vital to understand the development of the use of the New Testament text. Nearly half of the catalogued New Testament manuscripts are lectionaries.2 These manuscripts show us how, in the words of Krueger and Nelson, ‘Christianity is not so much the religion of the New Testament as the religion of its use’.3 These lectionaries were how the Byzantine faithful heard the Bible throughout the Church year, how they interacted with the Scriptures, and they open a window for us to see the worship of a particular community in a particular time and place. THE LECTIONARY A lectionary is a book containing selected scripture readings for use in Christian worship on a given day. The biblical text is thus arranged not in the traditional order of the Bible, but in the order of how the readings appear throughout the year of worship. So, not all of the Bible is included (the Book of Revelation never appears in a Greek lectionary) and the 1 Exceptions to this include the Chicago Lectionary Project (for an overview of the project see Carroll Osburn, ‘The Greek Lectionaries of the New Testament,’ in The Text of the New Testament.

But success has been less frequent, because the knowledge of coins is essentially a knowledge of details, and small treatises are apt to be un- readable when they contain too many references to particular coins, and unprofltably vague when such references are avoided. I cannot hope that I have passed safely between these two dangers ; indeed, my desire has been to avoid the second at all risk of encountering the former. At the same time it may be said that this book is not meant for the collector who desires only to identify the coins which he happens to possess, while caring little for the wider problems of history, art, mythology, and religion, to which coins sometimes furnish the only key.

  • A Short History of Greek Mathematics
    Cambridge Library Co ll e C t i o n Books of enduring scholarly value Classics From the Renaissance to the nineteenth century, Latin and Greek were compulsory subjects in almost all European universities, and most early modern scholars published their research and conducted international correspondence in Latin. Latin had continued in use in Western Europe long after the fall of the Roman empire as the lingua franca of the educated classes and of law, diplomacy, religion and university teaching. The flight of Greek scholars to the West after the fall of Constantinople in 1453 gave impetus to the study of ancient Greek literature and the Greek New Testament. Eventually, just as nineteenth-century reforms of university curricula were beginning to erode this ascendancy, developments in textual criticism and linguistic analysis, and new ways of studying ancient societies, especially archaeology, led to renewed enthusiasm for the Classics. This collection offers works of criticism, interpretation and synthesis by the outstanding scholars of the nineteenth century. A Short History of Greek Mathematics James Gow’s Short History of Greek Mathematics (1884) provided the first full account of the subject available in English, and it today remains a clear and thorough guide to early arithmetic and geometry. Beginning with the origins of the numerical system and proceeding through the theorems of Pythagoras, Euclid, Archimedes and many others, the Short History offers in-depth analysis and useful translations of individual texts as well as a broad historical overview of the development of mathematics. Parts I and II concern Greek arithmetic, including the origin of alphabetic numerals and the nomenclature for operations; Part III constitutes a complete history of Greek geometry, from its earliest precursors in Egypt and Babylon through to the innovations of the Ionic, Sophistic, and Academic schools and their followers.

  • Introduction
    Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION This book is about mathematics and mathematicians. We will occasionally stray into other areas, but mathematics and mathematicians are our basic theme. This book is not designed to teach you much mathematics. If you learn a little bit, that’s OK, but my goal is to introduce you to my world and the wonderful and sometimes strange people that inhabit it. There is no lack of books that will give you a deeper experience, that will reward your hard work with a bit of real knowledge of mathematics, but this is not one of those books. This book is more like a movie. You will read along and try to see as much as you can. The mathematics will be held up for you to see but you need not make much effort to get enough to appreciate the story, and it’s the story I want to tell. It’s a great story, with lots of drama and comedy and fortunately not so much tragedy; the kind of story most people like. This is not a book for scholars; there are plenty of those. This is a book for ordinary people with a little curiosity about the world we live in and one of the most effective ways to understand parts of it. And it’s an old story, one of the oldest on Earth. It starts with counting animals and looking at the stars, and today mankind is using mathematics to plumb the history of the Universe, and make lasers dance to tunes on IPODS.

  • A Number Is a Mathematical Object Used to Count, Label, and Measure
    Page 1 of 12 MATHMATICS II 1.2 number systems: A number is a mathematical object used to count, label, and measure. In mathematics, the definition of number has been extended over the years to include such numbers as 0, negative numbers, rational numbers, irrational numbers, real numbers, and complex numbers. Mathematical operations are certain procedures that take one or more numbers as input and produce a number as output. Unary operations take a single input number and produce a single output number. For example, the successor operation adds 1 to an integer, and thus the successor of 4 is 5. Binary operations take two input numbers and produce a single output number. Examples of binary operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and exponentiation. The study of numerical operations is called arithmetic. A notational symbol that represents a number is called a numeral. In addition to their use in counting and measuring, numerals are often used for labels (telephone numbers), for ordering (serial numbers), and for codes (e.g., ISBNs). In common usage, the word number can mean the abstract object, the symbol, or the word for the number. Classification of numbers Different types of numbers are used in many cases. Numbers can be classified into sets, called number systems. (For different methods of expressing numbers with symbols, such as the Roman numerals, see numeral systems.) Important number systems Natural 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... or 1, 2, 3, 4, ... ..., −5, −4, −3, −2, −1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Integers ...

  • Handy Math MB 8/19/07 9:00 PM Page 3
    Handy Math MB 8/19/07 9:00 PM Page 3 HISTORY OF MATHEMATICS WHAT IS MATHEMATICS? What is the origin of the word “mathematics”? According to most sources, the word “mathematics” is derived from the Latin math- maticus and from the Greek mathe¯matikos, meaning “mathematical.” (Other forms include mathe¯ma, meaning “learning,” and manthanein, meaning “to learn.”) In simple terms, what is mathematics? Mathematics is often referred to as the science of quantity. The two traditional branches of mathematics have been arithmetic and geometry, using the quantities of numbers and shapes. And although arithmetic and geometry are still of major impor- tance, modern mathematics expands the field into more complex branches by using a greater variety of quantities. Who were the first humans to use simple forms of mathematics? No one really knows who first used simple forms of mathematics. It is thought that the earliest peoples used something resembling mathematics because they would have known the concepts of one, two, or many. Perhaps they even counted using items in nature, such as 1, represented by the Sun or Moon; 2, their eyes or wings of a bird; clover for 3; or legs of a fox for 4. Archeologists have also found evidence of a crude form of mathematics in the tal- lying systems of certain ancient populations. These include notches in wooden sticks or bones and piles or lines of shells, sticks, or pebbles. This is an indication that cer- tain prehistoric peoples had at least simple, visual ways of adding and subtracting things, but they did not yet have a numbering system such as we have today.
