Computational Geometry on Surfaces
In the last thirty years Computational Geometry has emerged as a new discipline from the field of design and analysis of algorithms. That dis cipline studies geometric problems from a computational point of view, and it has attracted enormous research interest. But that interest is mostly concerned with Euclidean Geometry (mainly the plane or Eu clidean 3-dimensional space). Of course, there are some important rea sons for this occurrence since the first applieations and the bases of all developments are in the plane or in 3-dimensional space. But, we can find also some exceptions, and so Voronoi diagrams on the sphere, cylin der, the cone, and the torus have been considered previously, and ...
Graph Drawing
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Graph Drawing, GD 2007, held in Sydney, Australia, September 24-26, 2007. The 27 full papers and 9 short papers presented together with 2 invited talks, and a report on the graph drawing contest were carefully selected from 74 initial submissions. All current aspects in graph drawing are addressed ranging from foundational and methodological issues to applications for various classes of graphs in a variety of fields.
A History of Women in Mathematics
From ancient Greece to medieval Baghdad, from Revolutionary France to China's Qing Dynasty, women mathematicians have worked alongside men to a degree that was denied them in most other fields of scientific inquiry. Locked out of biological studies first by restrictions on their freedom of travel and later because of concerns that they would be corrupted by evolutionary thought, effectively barred from experimental physics for centuries through lack of access to specialized equipment, and inconsistently permitted a medical education, women have, for three thousand years and more, been a steady presence during every great mathematical era. They have contributed to the fundamentals of geometry...
Handbook of Graph Drawing and Visualization
Get an In-Depth Understanding of Graph Drawing Techniques, Algorithms, Software, and Applications The Handbook of Graph Drawing and Visualization provides a broad, up-to-date survey of the field of graph drawing. It covers topological and geometric foundations, algorithms, software systems, and visualization applications in business, education, science, and engineering. Each chapter is self-contained and includes extensive references. The first several chapters of the book deal with fundamental topological and geometric concepts and techniques used in graph drawing, such as planarity testing and embedding, crossings and planarization, symmetric drawings, and proximity drawings. The following...
WALCOM: Algorithms and Computation
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Algorithms and Computation, WALCOM 2009, held in Kolkata, India, in February 2009. The 30 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 submissions. The papers feature original research in the areas of design and analysis of algorithms, computational geometry, graph drawing and graph algorithms. The papers are organized in topical sections on computational geometry, graph algorithms, complexity, graph drawing, approximation algorithms, and randomized algorithms.
Love Triangle
Explore the life-changing magic of trigonometry with Matt Parker, stand-up mathematician and No. 1 bestselling author of Humble Pi Why can no two people ever see the same rainbow? What happens when you pull a pop song apart into pure sine waves and play it back on a piano? Why does the wake behind a duck always form an angle of exactly 39 degrees? And what did mathematicians have to do with the great pig stampede of 2012? The answer to each of these questions can be found in the triangle. In Love Triangle, stand-up comedian, ex-maths teacher and Sunday Times number one bestselling author Matt Parker is on a mission to prove why we should all show a lot more love for triangles, along with the...
Proceedings Of The 14th International Congress On Mathematical Education (In 2 Volumes)
The International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME) is the largest international conference on mathematics education in the world. This quadrennial event is organized under the auspices of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI). This book, the Proceedings of ICME-14, presents the latest trends in mathematics education research and mathematics teaching practices at all levels. Each chapter covers an extensive range of topics in mathematics education.Volume I consists of 4 Plenary Lectures, 3 Plenary Panels, 5 Lectures of Awardees, 4 Survey Teams, 62 Topic Study Groups, 13 Discussion Groups, 20 Workshops, a Thematic Afternoon, and an Early Career Researcher Day...
Computational Geometry
This Festschrift volume is published in honor of Ferran Hurtado on the occasion of his 60th birthday; it contains extended versions of selected communications presented at the XIV Spanish Meeting on Computational Geometry, held at the University of Alcalá, Spain, in June 2011. Ferran Hurtado has played a central role in the Spanish community of Computational Geometry since its very beginning, and the quantity and quality of the international participants in the conference is an indisputable proof of his relevance in the international level. The 26 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers present original research in computational geometry, in its broadest sense. Topics included are discrete and combinatorial geometry, linear programming applied to geometric problems, geometric algorithms and data structures, theoretical foundations of computational geometry, questions of interest in the implementation of geometric algorithms, and applications of computational geometry.
Hijo, eres un adicto
Nadie habla de las familias de los adictos. En los medios de comunicación, nos cansamos de escuchar testimonios de personas famosas que hablan de su experiencia con las drogas. Son historias tremendas de mucho sufrimiento y, en el mejor de los casos, de superación. Pero, ¿dónde están todas esas familias que viven el mismo horror mientras acompañan al adicto? Esta es la historia de una madre valiente que lucha por entender qué le pasa a su hijo y, que en el camino, se enfrenta a su propia dificultad para aceptar que este consume drogas. Es la misma historia que viven día a día cientos de miles de familias en este país. Familias que hoy sufren la adicción de un hijo, que están perdidas porque no existen recursos en los que apoyarse, que sienten miedo de verbalizar lo que sospechan, de compartirlo con el resto de su familia o sus amigos, familias que están dispuestas a cualquier cosa con tal de que su hijo deje de consumir. Incluso cuando él se resiste una y otra vez.
