Presented in this volume is a kaleidoscopic view of the research done in the PREMA project (Promoting Equity in Maths Achievement. Proceedings of the Project's Workshops), which was a twenty months research study type of project funded under the "General Activities of Observation, Analysis and Innovation" of the Socrates Programme (European Commission, DG for Education and Culture). The research is enrooted on the position that the achievement of Europe's Lisbon goal set in March 2000 is dependent on the extend to which Europe will utilize all of its human resources and its rich socio-cultural heritage
The book contains the first systematic exposition of the current known theory of K-loops, as well as some new material. In particular, big classes of examples are constructed. The theory for sharply 2-transitive groups is generalized to the theory of Frobenius groups with many involutions. A detailed discussion of the relativistic velocity addition based on the author's construction of K-loops from classical groups is also included. The first chapters of the book can be used as a text, the later chapters are research notes, and only partially suitable for the classroom. The style is concise, but complete proofs are given. The prerequisites are a basic knowledge of algebra such as groups, fields, and vector spaces with forms.
Kai Riedemann, geboren 1957 in Elmshorn, studierte Germanistik und Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft und schloss sein Studium 1987 mit dem Dr. phil. ab. Sein Interesse für unterhaltende Literatur ließ ihn ein besonderes Dissertationsthema finden: die Comicserie »Peanuts« des Amerikaners Charles M. Schulz. Er ging in den Journalismus und arbeitet seit vielen Jahren für eine bekannte TV-Programmzeitschrift. Die notwendige Detailgenauigkeit wirkt sich auch auf seine Arbeit als Kurzgeschichtenautor aus. In den Anfangsjahren konzentrierte sich Riedemann zunächst auf Science-Fiction-Szenarien – Folge einer intensiven Lektüre, die zum Selbermachen animierte. Die Themen Fantastik und Märchen folgten im Abstand von etwa einem Jahrzehnt. Kai Riedemann hat einen sicheren Blick für Details, vermeidet unnötige gedankliche Umwege und passt seinen Stil geschickt und gekonnt dem jeweiligen Genre an: hier Science-Fiction, da Fantastik und dort Märchen. Eine Kunst, die viele seiner Kollegen in der breiten Themenpalette der fantastischen Literatur in dieser Form nicht beherrschen.
