"The Monster Book of Algebra" presents an alternative way to learn elementary algebra. The learning is visual, and comes in the form of stories, jokes, games, puzzles, and fun mental exercises. Each chapter presents a story narrative with interesting characters that propel the action-and the reader--through the algebra concepts that are covered. For example, in Chapter 7 readers help Muffy the Polynomial Slayer and her sidekick Aspen battle the forces of the Undead. (Did you know that vampires are great at factoring polynomials?) Chapter 9 takes readers into the world of Al-Jitsu where Master Li and his rash, young disciple use the gentle Way of the Fraction to take on the evil dojo vying for world domination. In Chapter 11 readers find out why polynomials are like a box of chocolates and travel with Jenni and Forrest on a Radical Roadtrip as they journey to The Summer of Quadratics. "The Monster Book of Algebra" can be used by readers to self-teach algebra, as each concept is clearly explained and comes with many reinforcing exercises. The book can also be used as engaging supplementary material to support a more traditional classroom algebra course. "The Monster Book of Algebra" is primarily intended for junior high and high school students. In addition, adult education students will find this book useful. The underlying math presented in the book is a complete and rigorous elementary algebra syllabus. Readers who work their way through the book and complete each exercise will learn algebra and actually have fun along the way!

This work is motivated by and develops connections between several branches of mathematics and physics--the theories of Lie algebras, finite groups and modular functions in mathematics, and string theory in physics. The first part of the book presents a new mathematical theory of vertex operator algebras, the algebraic counterpart of two-dimensional holomorphic conformal quantum field theory. The remaining part constructs the Monster finite simple group as the automorphism group of a very special vertex operator algebra, called the "moonshine module" because of its relevance to "monstrous moonshine."

The Neumann Prize–winning, illustrated exploration of mathematics—from its timeless mysteries to its history of mind-boggling discoveries. Beginning millions of years ago with ancient “ant odometers” and moving through time to our modern-day quest for new dimensions, The Math Book covers 250 milestones in mathematical history. Among the numerous delights readers will learn about as they dip into this inviting anthology: cicada-generated prime numbers, magic squares from centuries ago, the discovery of pi and calculus, and the butterfly effect. Each topic is lavishly illustrated with colorful art, along with formulas and concepts, fascinating facts about scientists’ lives, and real-world applications of the theorems.

Algebra & Geometry: An Introduction to University Mathematics provides a bridge between high school and undergraduate mathematics courses on algebra and geometry. The author shows students how mathematics is more than a collection of methods by presenting important ideas and their historical origins throughout the text. He incorporates a hands-on approach to proofs and connects algebra and geometry to various applications. The text focuses on linear equations, polynomial equations, and quadratic forms. The first several chapters cover foundational topics, including the importance of proofs and properties commonly encountered when studying algebra. The remaining chapters form the mathematical core of the book. These chapters explain the solution of different kinds of algebraic equations, the nature of the solutions, and the interplay between geometry and algebra

As many readers will know, the 20th century was a time when the fields of mathematics and the sciences were seen as two separate entities. Caused by the rapid growth of the physical sciences and an increasing abstraction in mathematical research, each party, physicists and mathematicians alike, suffered a misconception; not only of the opposition’s theoretical underpinning, but of how the two subjects could be intertwined and effectively utilized. One sub-discipline that played a part in the union of the two subjects is Theoretical Physics. Breaking it down further came the fundamental theories, Relativity and Quantum theory, and later on Yang-Mills theory. Other areas to emerge in this area are those derived from the works of Donaldson, Chern-Simons, Floer-Fukaya, and Seiberg-Witten. Aimed at a wide audience, Physical Topics in Mathematics demonstrates how various physical theories have played a crucial role in the developments of Mathematics and in particular, Geometric Topology. Issues are studied in great detail, and the book steadfastly covers the background of both Mathematics and Theoretical Physics in an effort to bring the reader to a deeper understanding of their interaction. Whilst the world of Theoretical Physics and Mathematics is boundless; it is not the intention of this book to cover its enormity. Instead, it seeks to lead the reader through the world of Physical Mathematics; leaving them with a choice of which realm they wish to visit next.
