Ecuaciones diofánticas
Fecha de primera versión: 07-10-2000
Fecha de última actualización: Las ecuaciones diofánticas deben su nombre a Diofanto que fue quien las estudió primero. Una ecuación diofántica es una ecuación cuyas soluciones son números naturales.
Ecuaciones de la forma ax + by = c
Para que ésta ecuación tenga solución c tiene que ser divisible por el máximo común divisor de a y b. En este caso la ecuación tiene un número finito de soluciones o ninguna. Resolución: ax = c - by
Dando valores a y, desde y = hasta y = a - 1, encontraremos un único valor que sea múltiplo de a. Sea b el valor de y que hace c - by múltiplo de a. Entonces conoceremos el valor de x que satisface la ecuación. Sea a ese valor. Para obtener las demás soluciones hacemos x = a - bt e y = b +at y damos a valores a t = 0,1,2... siempre que se pueda hacer la sustracción. Sea la ecuación 3x + 5y = 52
Para y = queda 3x = 52
Para y = 1 queda 3x = 47
Para y = 2 queda 3x = 42
El único valor de y que hace x entero es y = 2. Entonces b = 2 y a x = 14 - 5t. Para t = 0, x = 14. Para t = 1, x = 9. Para t = 2, x = 4.

  • This is St. David's Day. David (or Dewi), a sixth-century Welsh abbot, is the patron saint of Wales. In March of 1949 the student government at the University formally adopted the name, Associated Students of the University of Portland, and began using the acronym ASUP. The first student body president under the new constitution was Kevin Collins, who later served as Acting Dean of Students for the University.
    This was the birthday in 1810 of the Polish composer and pianist Frederick Chopin, and the birthday in 1837 of the American novelist and editor (founder of the Atlantic Monthly and first editor of the works of Thomas Wolfe) William Dean Howells. It was also the birthday in 1914 of the African-American writer Ralph Waldo Ellison ( The Invisible Man ), in 1917 of the New England poet Robert Lowell, in 1919 of the "beat" poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti, in 1920 of US poet-laureate Richard Wilbur, and in 1925 of Israeli prime minister and Nobel-Peace-Prize winner Yitzak Rabin. And on this day in 1847 the State of Michigan became the first English-speaking jurisdiction to banish the death penalty.

Geometry of numbers
Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition In number theory Traditionally, number theory is that branch of pure mathematics concerned with the properties of integers and contains many open problems that are easily understood even by non-mathematicians. More generally, the field has come to be concerned with a wider class of problems that arose naturally from the study of integers. Number theory may be subdivided into several fields according to the methods used and the questions investigated. See for example the list of number theory topics.
Click the link for more information. , the geometry of numbers refers to a topic and method arising from the work of Hermann Minkowski Hermann Minkowski (June 22, 1864 - January 12, 1909) was a Jewish German mathematician who developed the geometrical theory of numbers and who used geometrical methods to solve difficult problems in number theory, mathematical physics, and the theory of relativity. Hermann Minkowski was born in Russia, and educated in Germany at the Universities of Berlin and Königsberg, where he achieved his doctorate in 1885. Minkowski taught at the universities of Bonn, Königsberg and Zurich. In Zurich, he was one of Einstein's teachers.

In this talk we will solve the problem posed in the title, one first solved by Louis Mordell in the 1960's. More interesting than the question itself, perhaps, is the method of solution, which serves to introduce the beautiful subject of elliptic curves. This is a field of lively current research interest and the gateway to techniques used in the recent acclaimed proof of Fermat's Last Theorem and to problems of cryptogtraphy. Ed Schaefer earned his Ph.D. from U. C. Berkeley in 1992 and has been at Santa Clara University ever since. His main research interests are arithmetic geometry and cryptography. Arithmetic geometry uses geometry to solve problems from number theory, as we'll see in the talk. This summer he lectured on arithmetic geometry in Peru before being detained by rebels in Bolivia ... he'll be back in time for the talk. How to get to Santa Clara University: From US Highway 101, take the De La Cruz Boulevard/Santa Clara exi t and follow the signs to El Camino and the main campus entrance.

Elliptic Curves and Elliptic Functions
For a quick definition of many of the terms used here, you may refer to the Glossary
Contents:
What is an elliptic curve?
An elliptic curve is not an ellipse! The reason for the name is a little more indirect. It has to do, as we shall explain shortly, with "elliptic integrals", which arise in computing the arc length of an ellipse. But this happenstance of nomenclature isn't too significant, since an elliptic curve has different, and much more interesting, properties as compared to an ellipse. Instead, an elliptic curve is simply the locus of points in the x-y plane that satisfy an algebraic equation of the form (with some additional minor technical conditions). This is deliberately vague as to what sort of values x and y represent. In the most elementary case, they are real numbers, in which case the elliptic curve is easily graphed in the usual Cartesian plane. But the theory is much richer when x and y may be any complex numbers (in C ). And for arithmetic purposes, x and y may lie in some other field, such as the rational numbers

Chronology of Pure and Applied Mathematics Egyptian mathematicians employ primitive fractions. Pythagoras studies propositional geometry and vibrating lyre strings. Eudoxus states the method of exhaustion for area determination. Aristotle discusses logical reasoning in Organon. Euclid studies geometry as an axiomatic system in Elements and states the law of reflection in Catoptrics. Archimedes computes pi to two decimal places using inscribed and cirumscribed polygons and computes the area under a parabolic segment. Apollonius writes On Conic Sections and names the ellipse, parabola, and hyperbola. Diophantus writes Arithmetica, the first systematic treatise on algebra. Tsu Ch'ung-Chih and Tsu Keng-Chih compute pi to six decimal places. Hindu mathematicians give zero a numeral representation in a positional notation system. Leonardo Fibonacci demonstrates the utility of Arabic numerals in his Book of the Abacus. Ghiyathal-Kashi computes pi to sixteen decimal places using inscribed and cirumscribed polygons. Scipione Ferro develops a method for solving cubic equations.

60. Erdõs Pál
Meghívást kapott Manchesterbe a louis mordell vezette kiváló matematikus csoportba.Németországba készült, de a fasizmus eloretörése megelozte.
http://www.axis.hu/origo/Gorol_irtak/Erdos_Pal/kfki.htm
ERDÕS PÁL (1913-1996) "A matematika Mozartja" ki volna méltó e hasonlatra? Erdõs Pálra, aki szeptember 20-án szívrohamban hunyt el egy varsói konferencia során, méltán illik ez az elnevezés. Századunk egyik legragyogóbb elméje volt; alig húszéves, amikor a nagy berlini matematikus, Issai Schur "a budapesti varázsló"-nak nevezte el, mások a "nyugati Ramanujan" vagy "napjaink Eulere" néven illették. Erdõs 1913. március 26-án Budapesten született magyar zsidó családban. Szülei matematikatanárok voltak, és amíg 1930-ban be nem került a budapesti egyetemre, jobbára otthon tanult. Másodéves hallgató korában már olyan eredményeket mutatott föl, melyek nemzetközi elismerést vívtak ki számára. Meghívást kapott Manchesterbe a Louis Mordell vezette kiváló matematikus csoportba. Németországba készült, de a fasizmus elõretörése megelõzte. Tréfásan megjegyezte, hogy a hagyományos zsidó pohárköszöntõt meg kellene változtatni "Jövõre Göttingenben!"-re. Négy igen termékeny évet töltött Manchesterben, közben gyakran ellátogatott Cambridge-be, Oxfordba és Londonba is. 1938-39-ben igen sikeres évet töltött Princetonban az Institute of Advanced Study-ban. Mark Kaccal és Aurel Wintnerrel megalapozta a valószínûségi számelméletet; Turán Pállal fontos eredményeket ért el az approximációelméletben és váratlan megoldását adta a dimenzióelmélet egyik kiemelkedõ problémájának. Intézeti ösztöndíját furcsa módon nem újították meg, ekkor kezdett el utazni. Nem tért vissza Európába egészen 1948-ig, amikor több mint egy évtized után elõször nyílt lehetõsége arra, hogy Magyarországon meglátogassa édesanyját és azt a néhány megmaradt rokonát, akik a Holocaustot túlélték.
