Love and Math: Equations as an Equalizer for Humanity. By Maria Popova “Mathematics is the source of timeless profound knowledge, which goes to the heart of all matter and unites us across cultures, continents, and centuries.” French polymath Henri Poincaré saw in mathematics a metaphor for how creativity works, while autistic savant Daniel Tammet believes that math expands our circle of empathy.

So how can a field so diverse in its benefits and so rich in human value remain alienating to so many people who subscribe to the toxic cultural mythology that in order to appreciate its beauty, one needs a special kind of “mathematical mind”? Frenkel makes the same case for math that philosopher Judith Butler made for reading and the humanities, arguing for it as a powerful equalizer of humanity: Mathematical knowledge is unlike any other knowledge.

Math 6730. Math 6730 - Asymptotic and Perturbation Methods Time: 2-3:20pm T,TH Place: JWB 222 Course Description: In this course, we will discuss the 4 basic problems of singular perturbation theory, namely singular boundary value problems, singular initial value problems, multiple time scale problems, and multiple space scale problems. The specific names of the techniques are matched asymptotic expansions, multiple-time scale analysis, averaging, and homogenization. Text: M. Other References: J.

Mathbooks. The Tesseract. No Title. K 1.4, # 6; compare with the answers to 1.4, #5 from Problem Set 3. Solution: Let's agree to measure time in years; then the rate for the Poisson process is per year. (a) Since (b) Since , we have (c) Since , and and is independent of Solution: Here tornadoes per week. . , so. . . , the probability in question is the same as Solution: (I did this one in class on 1/28, but here it is again.)

And . (a) Now the total number of successful one-minutes time intervals in 10trials is Binomial (10, p = .9084). (b) . Customers arrive at a bank at a Poisson rate . Solution: Here we want to condition on . . (b) We want to compute Cars cross a certain point in the highway in accordance with a Poisson process with rate per minute. With per minute. For s=2/60,5/60,10/60,20/60.

Suppose in the preceding problem that Al is agile enough to escape from a single car, but if he encounters two or more cars while attempting to cross the road, then he is injured. Solution: As in the previous problem, (a) For and appropriate t? Symbolab - Symbolab Science & Math Search Engine.
