Beyond Art: A Third Culture

A new theory of culture presented with a new method achieved by comparing closely the art and science in 20th century Austria and Hungary. Major achievements that have influenced the world like psychoanalysis, abstract art, quantum physics, Gestalt psychology, formal languages, vision theories, and the game theory etc. originated from these countries, and influence the world still today as a result of exile nurtured in the US. A source book with numerous photographs, images and diagrams, it opens up a nearly infinite horizon of knowledge that helps one to understand what is going on in today’s worlds of art and science.

Non-Euclidean Geometries

"From nothing I have created a new different world," wrote János Bolyai to his father, Wolgang Bolyai, on November 3, 1823, to let him know his discovery of non-Euclidean geometry, as we call it today. The results of Bolyai and the co-discoverer, the Russian Lobachevskii, changed the course of mathematics, opened the way for modern physical theories of the twentieth century, and had an impact on the history of human culture. The papers in this volume, which commemorates the 200th anniversary of the birth of János Bolyai, were written by leading scientists of non-Euclidean geometry, its history, and its applications. Some of the papers present new discoveries about the life and works of János Bolyai and the history of non-Euclidean geometry, others deal with geometrical axiomatics; polyhedra; fractals; hyperbolic, Riemannian and discrete geometry; tilings; visualization; and applications in physics.

János Bolyai

Biographie des ungarischen Mathematikers János Bolyai (1802-1860), der etwa gleichzeitig mit dem russischen Mathematiker Nikolai Lobatschewski und unabhängig von ihm die nichteuklidische Revolution eingeleitet hat. Diese erbrachte den Nachweis, dass die euklidische Geometrie keine Denknotwendigkeit ist, wie Kant irrtümlicherweise annahm. Das Verständnis für die kühnen Gedankengänge verbreitete sich allerdings erst in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts durch die Arbeiten von Riemann, Beltrami, Klein und Poincaré. Die nichteuklidische Revolution war eine der Grundlagen für die Entwicklung der Physik im 20. Jahrhundert und für Einsteins Erkenntnis, dass der uns umgebende reale Raum gekrümmt ist. Tibor Weszely schildert das wechselvolle Leben des Offiziers der K.u.K.-Armee, der krank und vereinsamt starb. Bolyai hat sich auch intensiv mit den komplexen Zahlen und mit Zahlentheorie befasst, ebenso auch mit philosophischen und sozialen Fragen („Allheillehre“) sowie mit Logik und Grammatik.
