Peter Cameron's Blog. Always busy counting, doubting every figured guess . . . GAP code for PLRs. Laplace eigenvalues and optimality. I wanted to represent these [Fuchsian] functions by the quotient of two series; the idea was perfectly conscious and deliberate; the analogy with elliptic functions guided me. I asked myself what properties these series must have if they existed, and succeeded without difficulty in forming the series I have called thetafuchsian. William Byers, How Mathematicians Think.

You may import a “style of teaching”, but cannot import the social environment of teaching — this is a key, and, perhaps, impassible obstacle to development of a coherent mathematics education policy in England. But attempts continue regardless: DfE has no other options. Asian maths method offered to schools. Read the full story. Peter ...

Peter Cameron's Blog. Always busy counting, doubting every figured guess . . . GAP code for PLRs. Laplace eigenvalues and optimality. Mathematical typography: help wanted. In an earlier post. I described the equivalence relation theorem as the pons asinorum. Of modern mathematics. It is a real obstacle for beginning mathematics students, but one which it is essential to master. The theorem states that two kinds of object are essentially the same thing:. On a set X. An invariant is a function which can be...
