Outer Billiards on Kites

Preface

"Outer billiards" is a basic dynamical system defined relative to a convex shape in the plane. B.H. Neumann introduced "outer billiards" in the 1950s, and J. Moser popularized "outer billiards" in the 1970s as a toy model for celestial mechanics. "Outer billiards" is an appealing dynamical system because of its simplicity and also because of its connection to such topics as interval exchange maps, piecewise isometric actions, and area-preserving actions. There is a lot left to learn about these kinds of dynamical systems, and a good understanding of outer billiards might shed light on the more general situation. The Moser-Neumann question, one of the central problems in this subject, asks:

Does there exist an outer billiards system with an unbounded orbit?

Until recently, all the work on this subject has been devoted to proving that all the orbits are bounded for various classes of shapes. We will detail these results in the introduction.

Bizarre nested Klein bottles

In mathematics, the "Klein bottle" is an example of a non-orientable surface; informally, it is a surface (a two-dimensional manifold) in which notions of left and right cannot be consistently defined. Other related non-orientable objects include the "Möbius strip" and the real projective plane. Whereas a "Möbius strip" is a surface with boundary, a "Klein bottle" has no boundary (for comparison, a sphere is an orientable surface with no boundary).

The "Klein bottle" was first described in 1882 by the German mathematician "Felix Klein". It may have been originally named the "Kleinsche Fläche" ("Klein surface") and that this was incorrectly interpreted as "Kleinsche Flasche" ("Klein bottle"), which ultimately led to the adoption of this term in the German language as well.

Longplayer by Jem Finer

What is Longplayer?

Longplayer is a one thousand year long musical composition. It began playing at midnight on the 31st of December 1999, and will continue to play without repetition until the last moment of 2999, at which point it will complete its cycle and begin again. Conceived and composed by Jem Finer, it was originally produced as an Artangel commission, and is now in the care of the Longplayer Trust.

Longplayer can be heard in the lighthouse at Trinity Buoy Wharf, London, where it has been playing since it began. It can also be heard at several other listening posts around the world, and globally via a live stream on the Internet.

Longplayer is composed for singing bowls - an ancient type of standing bell - which can be played by both humans and machines, and whose resonances can be very accurately reproduced in recorded form. It is designed to be adaptable to unforeseeable changes in its technological and social environments, and to endure in the long-term as a self-sustaining institution.

The Longplayer Trust is a non-profit organization dedicated to making sure Longplayer is freely available to the public. If you enjoy Longplayer and would like to see it survive, please consider telling us so by making a donation. It’s easy to do, and it only takes a minute.

Möbius Strip

Möbius strip

"Mobius", also "Moebius", 1904 in reference to the "Mobius strip" (earlier "Moebius unilateral paper strip", 1899), named for German mathematician August Ferdinand Möbius (1790-1868), professor at Leipzig, who devised it and described it in 1865 ("über die Bestimmung des Inhalts eines Polyeders", Nov. 27, 1865).

The Mobius Strip
Dr. August Mobius's Marvelous Band in Mathematics, Games, Literature, Art, Technology, and Cosmology
Clifford A. Pickover
Thunder's Mouth Press, 2006

In mathematics, a "Möbius strip", "Möbius band", or "Möbius loop" (also spelled "Mobius" or "Moebius", is a surface with only one side (when embedded in three-dimensional Euclidean space) and only one boundary curve. The Möbius strip is the simplest non-orientable surface. It can be realized as a ruled surface. Its discovery is attributed independently to the German mathematicians Johann Benedict Listing and August Ferdinand Möbius in 1858, though similar structures can be seen in Roman mosaics c. 200–250 AD. Möbius published his results in his articles "Theorie der elementaren Verwandtschaft" (1863) and "Ueber die Bestimmung des Inhaltes eines Polyëders" (1865).
...

The "Möbius strip", also called the "twisted cylinder" (Henle 1994, p. 110), is a one-sided nonorientable surface obtained by cutting a closed band into a single strip, giving one of the two ends thus produced a half twist, and then reattaching the two ends (right figure; Gray 1997, pp. 322-323). The strip bearing his name was invented by "Möbius" in 1858, although it was independently discovered by "Listing", who published it, while Möbius did not (Derbyshire 2004, p. 381). Like the cylinder, it is not a true surface, but rather a surface with boundary (Henle 1994, p. 110).

"pivotal"
Definition: "very important", "very consequential" = "entscheidend", "lebenswichtig", "Schlüssel-", "Zentral-"

The noun "pivot" is a person, thing, or factor having a major or central role, function, or effect (der "Drehpunkt", der "Drehzapfen", der "Schwenkungspunkt").

So the adjective is used to describe something which is vitally important.

Pivoting
The element in the diagonal of a matrix by which other elements are divided in an algorithm such as Gauss-Jordan elimination is called the pivot element. Partial pivoting is the interchanging of rows and full pivoting is the interchanging of both rows and columns in order to place a particularly "good" element in the diagonal position prior to a particular operation.

prime (W3)

Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary defines prime as follows.

"prime" \'prim\ n [ME, fr. MF, fem. of "prin" = "first", L "primus"; akin to L "prior"]

• 1 : first in time : ORIGINAL
• 2 a : having no factor except itself and one (3 is a ~ number)
• 2 b : having no common factor except one (12 and 25 are relatively ~)
• 3 a : first in rank, authority or significance : PRINCIPAL
• 3 b : having the highest quality or value (~ television time)

Each of Webster's definitions may be applied to this page, but the most operative is 2a: An integer greater than one is prime if its only positive divisors are itself and one (otherwise it is composite). For example: 15 is composite because it has the two prime divisors 3 and 5.

Mathematic signs

...
Most of the basic symbols of logic and set theory in use today were introduced between 1880 and 1920. The main contributors were "Ernst Schröder" (1841-1902) and "Giuseppe Peano", (1858-1932)

Alfred North Whitehead, (1861-1947) and Bertrand Russell, (1872-1970).

Peano had a strong influence on Whitehead and Russell and their joint work, "Principia Mathematica", (1910-1913), was itself very influential. Today "Gottlob Frege", (1848-1925) is the most admired logician of that age but his notation was not taken up. Most of the symbols described here are treated in the chapter on mathematical logic in Cajori's "A History of Mathematical Notations, vol. 2" (1929). The ideas of the period are covered in I. Grattan-Guinness (2000) "The Search for Mathematical Roots, 1870-1940: Logics, Set Theories and the Foundations of Mathematics from Cantor through Russell to Gödel". Many of the classic works are available in English in Jan van Heijenoort (1967) "From Frege to Gödel: A Source Book in Mathematical Logic, 1879--1931".

What Makes a Sign a Mathematical Sign?
An Epistemological Perspective on Mathematical Interaction

Heinz Steinbring, University of Dortmund, GERMANY
1. The particular role of mathematical signs in the frame of epistemological conditions of mathematical knowledge

In general, the importance of signs for human thinking is uncontested and fundamental. Without signs, no human thinking and no mental generalizations would exist. „We have no ability to think without signs“ (Peirce 1991, p. 42) reads the famous dictum by Charles Peirce (cf. also Radford 2001a). A general, essential identification of the role of the sign is the one that the sign stands for something else; Thomas of Aquin has described this feature with the famous definition „aliquid stat pro aliquo“.

In the following it is tried under an explicitly epistemological perspective to work out the particular role of mathematical signs in certain essential points of view. This is in no case about the modeling of a general sign concept, but about a better understanding of the particularity of mathematical signs, partly referring to semiotic concepts and models of signs. This makes it necessary to concentrate on the epistemological nature of mathematical knowledge and of mathematical concepts, as mathematical signs serve mainly for „recording“ mathematical knowledge and mathematical concepts. Seen in this way, the particularity of mathematical signs is indicated mainly referring to the epistemological meaning of mathematical knowledge. Mathematical signs are chiefly seen as „instruments“ for coding and describing mathematical knowledge, for communicating mathematical knowledge as well as for operating with mathematical knowledge and for developing it in a generalizing way. In this sense, mathematical signs are also cultural tools (cf. Radford 1998; 2001a; Vygotsky 1987) which are used in the communication with other persons in order to develop mathematical knowledge.

Danesi, Marcel
Language and Mathematics
An Interdisciplinary Guide

Reihe: Language Intersections 1
DE GRUYTER MOUTON

This book explores the many disciplinary and theoretical links between language, linguistics, and mathematics. It examines trends in linguistics, such as structuralism, conceptual metaphor theory, and other relevant theories,to show that language and mathematics have a similar structure, but differential functions, even though one without the other would not exist.

Derbyshire, John
Unknown Quantity
A Real and Imaginary History of Algebra

...
This book's title is deceiving, for Derbyshire offers a very real and very entertaining survey of the development of algebra. "Real" and "imaginary" refer to types of numbers, and Derbyshire (Prime Obsession) opens with a basic primer on the various flavors of numbers and polynomials before looking at algebra's development over 3,000 years. As he explains how algebraic notation wended its way from Sumerian scratches on clay to such contemporary mathematical structures as Calabi-Yau manifolds ...

Dunham, William (Autor)
Journey through Genius
The Great Theorems of Mathematics

Book Description
Explores the "masterpieces" of mathematics, seventeen landmarks spanning 2,300 years and representing ten mathematicians. Each of these landmarks, to some degree, changed the way the world was perceived. Each theorem is presented with a description of the state of mathematics at the time, the development of the theorem, a biographical sketch of the mathematician and an outline of the proof with explanation.

Dunham, William (Autor)
The Mathematical Universe
An Alphabetical Journey Through the Great Proofs, Problems, and Personalities

The Mathematical Universe is a solid collection of short essays, with each addressing a particular mathematical topic. Titles range from "Isoperimetric Problem" to "Where Are the Women?" Author Dunham manages to maintain a conversational tone while referencing diagrams, equations, and rigorous arguments throughout the book.

Hardy, Godfrey Harold (Autor)
Snow, C. P. (Vorwort)
A Mathematician's Apology

A Mathematician's Apology is a profoundly sad book, the memoir of a man who has reached the end of his ambition, who can no longer effectively practice the art that has consumed him since he was a boy. But at the same time, it is a joyful celebration of the subject--and a stern lecture to those who would sully it by dilettantism or attempts to make it merely useful. "The mathematician's patterns," G.H. Hardy declares, "like the painter's or the poet's, must be beautiful; the ideas, like the colours or the words, must fit together in a harmonious way. Beauty is the first test: there is no permanent place in the world for ugly mathematics."

Wie sich der Zahlentheoretiker G. H. Hardy für seine nutzlose Wissenschaft entschuldigte - ein Klassiker der wissenschaftlichen Literatur

G. H. Hardy (1877-1947) was one of this century's finest mathematical thinkers, renowned among his contemporaries as a 'real mathematician … the purest of the pure'. He was also, as C. P. Snow recounts in his Foreword, 'unorthodox, eccentric, radical, ready to talk about anything'.

This 'apology', written in 1940, offers a brilliant and engaging account of mathematics as very much more than a science; when it was first published, Graham Greene hailed it alongside Henry James's notebooks as 'the best account of what it was like to be a creative artist'. C. P. Snow's Foreword gives sympathetic and witty insights into Hardy's life, with its rich store of anecdotes concerning his collaboration with the brilliant Indian mathematician Ramanujan, his idiosyncrasies, and his passion for cricket.

This is a unique account of the fascination of mathematics and of one of its most compelling exponents in modern times.

Proofs and Refutations
The Logic of Mathematical Discovery

Über das Produkt Proofs and Refutations is essential reading for all those interested in the methodology, the philosophy and the history of mathematics. Imre Lakatos shows that mathematics grows through a process of the successive improvement of creative hypotheses by attempts to 'prove' them and by criticism of these attempts: the logic of proofs and refutations.
