04.17: Birth of a Theorem: A Mathematical Adventure
2015-03-18 19:04:47| Powells Books Events Calendar
In 2010, French mathematician Cédric Villani received the Fields Medal, the most coveted prize in mathematics, in recognition of a proof which he devised with his close collaborator to explain one of the most surprising theories in classical physics. Birth of a Theorem (Farrar, Straus and Giroux) is Villani's own account of the years leading up to the award. Villani shares his favorite songs, his love of manga, and the imaginative stories he tells his children. In mathematics, as in any creative work, it is the thinker's whole life that propels discovery — and with Birth of a Theorem, Villani welcomes you into his.

Carbon Emissions and Warming: First Direct Mathematical Link Identified
2014-12-02 18:06:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Most climatologists, ecologists, and even the World Bank have all reached a consensus that climate change is occurring. Experts and policymakers alike have attributed rising concentrations of carbon dioxide to net warming, but finding straightforward evidence of this can be difficult. Now, a team of researchers claims that they have identified, for the first time, how global warming is related to the amount of carbon emitted in a mathematical proof.
