Geometry of Surfaces
Geometry used to be the basis of a mathematical education; today it is not even a standard undergraduate topic. Much as I deplore this situation, I welcome the opportunity to make …
Mathematics and Its History
From the reviews of the second edition:"e;This book covers many interesting topics not usually covered in a present day undergraduate course, as well as certain basic topics …
Elements of Algebra
Algebra is abstract mathematics - let us make no bones about it - yet it is also applied mathematics in its best and purest form. It is not abstraction for its own sake, but …
Papers on Group Theory and Topology
The work of Max Dehn (1878-1952) has been quietly influential in mathematics since the beginning of the 20th century. In 1900 he became the first to solve one of the famous Hilbert …
Elements of Number Theory
This book is intended to complement my Elements oi Algebra, and it is similarly motivated by the problem of solving polynomial equations. However, it is independent of the algebra …
Numbers and Geometry
NUMBERS AND GEOMETRY is a beautiful and relatively elementary account of a part of mathematics where three main fields--algebra, analysis and geometry--meet. The aim of this book …
Four Pillars of Geometry
Many people think there is only one "e;right"e; way to teach geometry. For two millennia, the "e;right"e; way was Euclid's way, and it is still good in many …
Naive Lie Theory
In this new textbook, acclaimed author John Stillwell presents a lucid introduction to Lie theory suitable for junior and senior level undergraduates. In order to achieve this, he …
Classical Topology and Combinatorial Group Theory
In recent years, many students have been introduced to topology in high school mathematics. Having met the Mobius band, the seven bridges of Konigsberg, Euler's polyhedron formula, …
