  • Hegel on Calculus
    HISTORY OF PHILOSOPHY QUARTERLY Volume 34, Number 4, October 2017 HEGEL ON CALCULUS Ralph M. Kaufmann and Christopher Yeomans t is fair to say that Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel’s philosophy of Imathematics and his interpretation of the calculus in particular have not been popular topics of conversation since the early part of the twenti- eth century. Changes in mathematics in the late nineteenth century, the new set-theoretical approach to understanding its foundations, and the rise of a sympathetic philosophical logic have all conspired to give prior philosophies of mathematics (including Hegel’s) the untimely appear- ance of naïveté. The common view was expressed by Bertrand Russell: The great [mathematicians] of the seventeenth and eighteenth cen- turies were so much impressed by the results of their new methods that they did not trouble to examine their foundations. Although their arguments were fallacious, a special Providence saw to it that their conclusions were more or less true. Hegel fastened upon the obscuri- ties in the foundations of mathematics, turned them into dialectical contradictions, and resolved them by nonsensical syntheses. .The resulting puzzles [of mathematics] were all cleared up during the nine- teenth century, not by heroic philosophical doctrines such as that of Kant or that of Hegel, but by patient attention to detail (1956, 368–69). Recently, however, interest in Hegel’s discussion of calculus has been awakened by an unlikely source: Gilles Deleuze. In particular, work by Simon Duffy and Henry Somers-Hall has demonstrated how close Deleuze and Hegel are in their treatment of the calculus as compared with most other philosophers of mathematics.

Thus it is appropriate to begin our study of calculus by investigating limits and their properties. The special type of limit that is used to find tangents and velocities gives rise to the central idea in differential calcu- lus, the derivative. We see how derivatives can be interpreted as rates of change in various situations and learn how the derivative of a function gives information about the original function. 89 57425_02_ch02_p089-099.qk 11/21/08 10:35 AM Page 90 90 CHAPTER 2 LIMITS AND DERIVATIVES 2.1 The Tangent and Velocity Problems In this section we see how limits arise when we attempt to find the tangent to a curve or the velocity of an object. The Tangent Problem The word tangent is derived from the Latin word tangens, which means “touching.” Thus t a tangent to a curve is a line that touches the curve. In other words, a tangent line should have the same direction as the curve at the point of contact. How can this idea be made precise? For a circle we could simply follow Euclid and say that a tangent is a line that intersects the circle once and only once, as in Figure 1(a). For more complicated curves this defini- tion is inadequate. Figure l(b) shows two lines and tl passing through a point P on a curve (a) C.

  • Limits of Functions
    Chapter 2 Limits of Functions In this chapter, we define limits of functions and describe some of their properties. 2.1. Limits We begin with the ϵ-δ definition of the limit of a function. Definition 2.1. Let f : A ! R, where A ⊂ R, and suppose that c 2 R is an accumulation point of A. Then lim f(x) = L x!c if for every ϵ > 0 there exists a δ > 0 such that 0 < jx − cj < δ and x 2 A implies that jf(x) − Lj < ϵ. We also denote limits by the `arrow' notation f(x) ! L as x ! c, and often leave it to be implicitly understood that x 2 A is restricted to the domain of f. Note that we exclude x = c, so the function need not be defined at c for the limit as x ! c to exist. Also note that it follows directly from the definition that lim f(x) = L if and only if lim jf(x) − Lj = 0: x!c x!c Example 2.2. Let A = [0; 1) n f9g and define f : A ! R by x − 9 f(x) = p : x − 3 We claim that lim f(x) = 6: x!9 To prove this, let ϵ >p 0 be given. For x 2 A, we have from the difference of two squares that f(x) = x + 3, and p x − 9 1 jf(x) − 6j = x − 3 = p ≤ jx − 9j: x + 3 3 Thus, if δ = 3ϵ, then jx − 9j < δ and x 2 A implies that jf(x) − 6j < ϵ.

  • Mathematics for Economics Anthony Tay 7. Limits of a Function The
    Mathematics for Economics Anthony Tay 7. Limits of a function The concept of a limit of a function is one of the most important in mathematics. Many key concepts are defined in terms of limits (e.g., derivatives and continuity). The primary objective of this section is to help you acquire a firm intuitive understanding of the concept. Roughly speaking, the limit concept is concerned with the behavior of a function f around a certain point (say a ) rather than with the value fa() of the function at that point. The question is: what happens to the value of fx() when x gets closer and closer to a (without ever reaching a )? ln x Example 7.1 Take the function fx()= . 5 x2 −1 4 This function is not defined at the point x =1, because = 3 the denominator at x 1 is zero. However, as x f(x) = ln(x) / (x2-1) 1 2 ‘tends’ to 1, the value of the function ‘tends’ to 2 . We 1 say that “the limit of the function fx() is 2 as x 1 approaches 1, or 0 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 lnx 1 lim = x→1 x2 −1 2 It is important to be clear: the limit of a function and the value of a function are two completely different concepts. In example 7.1, for instance, the value of fx() at x =1 does not even exist; the function is undefined there. However, the limit as x →1 does exist: the value of the function fx() does tend to 1 something (in this case: 2 ) as x gets closer and closer to 1.

  • Maximum and Minimum Definition
    Maximum and Minimum Definition: Definition: Let f be defined in an interval I. For all x, y in the interval I. If f(x) < f(y) whenever x < y then we say f is increasing in the interval I. If f(x) > f(y) whenever x < y then we say f is decreasing in the interval I. Graphically, a function is increasing if its graph goes uphill when x moves from left to right; and if the function is decresing then its graph goes downhill when x moves from left to right. Notice that a function may be increasing in part of its domain while decreasing in some other parts of its domain. For example, consider f(x) = x2. Notice that the graph of f goes downhill before x = 0 and it goes uphill after x = 0. So f(x) = x2 is decreasing on the interval (−∞; 0) and increasing on the interval (0; 1). Consider f(x) = sin x. π π 3π 5π 7π 9π f is increasing on the intervals (− 2 ; 2 ), ( 2 ; 2 ), ( 2 ; 2 )...etc, while it is de- π 3π 5π 7π 9π 11π creasing on the intervals ( 2 ; 2 ), ( 2 ; 2 ), ( 2 ; 2 )...etc. In general, f = sin x is (2n+1)π (2n+3)π increasing on any interval of the form ( 2 ; 2 ), where n is an odd integer. (2m+1)π (2m+3)π f(x) = sin x is decreasing on any interval of the form ( 2 ; 2 ), where m is an even integer. What about a constant function? Is a constant function an increasing function or decreasing function? Well, it is like asking when you walking on a flat road, as you going uphill or downhill? From our definition, a constant function is neither increasing nor decreasing.

  • 3.2 Limits and Continuity of Functions of Two Or More Variables. 3.2.1 Elementary Notions of Limits We Wish to Extend the Notion of Limits Studied in Calculus I
    216 CHAPTER 3. FUNCTIONS OF SEVERAL VARIABLES 3.2 Limits and Continuity of Functions of Two or More Variables. 3.2.1 Elementary Notions of Limits We wish to extend the notion of limits studied in Calculus I. Recall that when we write lim f (x) = L, we mean that f can be made as close as we want to x a L, by taking! x close enough to a but not equal to a. In this process, f has to be defined near a, but not necessarily at a. The information we are trying to derive is the behavior of f (x) as x gets closer to a. When we extend this notion to functions of two variables (or more), we will see that there are many similarities. We will discuss these similarities. However, there is also a main difference. The domain of functions of two variables is a subset of R2, in other words it is a set of pairs. A point in R2 is of the form (x, y). So, the equivalent of x a will be (x, y) (a, b). For functions of three variables, the equivalent of!x a will be (x, y,! z) (a, b, c), and so on. This has a very important consequence,! one which makes! computing limits for functions of several variables more diffi cult. While x could only approach a from two directions, from the left or from the right, (x, y) can approach (a, b) from infinitely many directions. In fact, it does not even have to approach (a, b) along a straight path as shown in figure 3.7.

  • Primitive Functions
    Lecture 1 (20.2.2019) (translated and slightly adapted from lecture notes by Martin Klazar) (Warning: not a substitute for attending the lectures, probably contains typos. Let me know if you spot any!) Primitive functions Definition 1 (Primitive function). If I ⊆ R is a non-empty open interval and F; f : I ! R are functions satisfying F 0 = f on I, we call F a primitive function of f on I. First, some motivation | the relation of primitive functions with planar figures. For a nonnegative and continuous function f :[a; b] ! R we consider a planar figure 2 U(a; b; f) = f(x; y) 2 R j a ≤ x ≤ b & 0 ≤ y ≤ f(x)g : Its area, whatever it is, is denoted by Z b f := area(U(a; b; f)) : a This is the area of part of the plane defined by the axis x, graph of the function f and the vertical lines y = a and y = b. Two basic relationships between the area and the derivative are as follows. Consider the function F of x defined R x as the area U(a; x; f), i.e., F (x) = a f. The first fundamental theorem of calculus says that for every c 2 [a; b] we have F 0(c) = f(c) | the derivative of a function whose argument x is the upper limit of the U(a; x; f) and the value is its area is equal to the original function f. Thus, R x the function F (x) = a f is a primitive function of f.

  • Analysis on Surreal Numbers 3
    ANALYSIS ON SURREAL NUMBERS SIMON RUBINSTEIN-SALZEDO AND ASHVIN SWAMINATHAN Abstract. The class No of surreal numbers, which John Conway discovered while studying combinatorial games, possesses a rich numerical structure and shares many arithmetic and algebraic properties with the real numbers. Some work has also been done to develop analysis on No. In this paper, we extend this work with a treatment of functions, limits, derivatives, power series, and integrals. We propose surreal definitions of the arctangent and logarithm functions using truncations of Maclaurin series. Using a new representation of surreals, we present a formula for the limit of a sequence, and we use this formula to provide a complete characterization of convergent sequences and to evaluate certain series and infinite Riemann sums via extrapolation. A similar formula allows us to evaluates limits (and hence derivatives) of functions. By defining a new topology on No, we obtain the Intermediate Value Theorem even though No is not Cauchy complete, and we prove that the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus would hold for surreals if a consistent definition of integration exists. Extending our study to defining other analytic functions, evaluating power series in generality, finding a consistent definition of integration, proving Stokes’ Theorem to generalize surreal integration, and studying differential equations remains open. 1. Introduction Since their invention by John Conway in 1972, surreal numbers have intrigued mathemati- cians who wanted to investigate the behavior of a new number system. Even though surreal numbers were constructed out of attempts to describe the endgames of two-player combi- natorial games like Go and Chess, they form a number system in their own right and have many properties in common with real numbers.
