Mini Math Bio - Leonhard Euler
by
Dr. Gulden Akinci
The Swiss mathematician and physicist Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) is one of the most important figures of science and certainly one of the greatest pioneers of calculus that ever lived. How important and how great? Every time you express a function as "f(x)" you owe it to Euler who invented the notation as well as the whole idea of a "function.

The History of Sudoku
by
Andy Hope
Sudoku is the current rage among number puzzles. It is an abbreviation of the Japanese phrase "suuji wa dokushin ni kagiru" which means "the digits must remain single". Most people are under the wrong impression that sudoku is of Japanese origin when the only thing Japanese about sudoku is the word sudoku.

"We Don't Know What We Are Talking About" - Nobel Laureate David Gross
by
Mike Strauss
Science has reached an enormous impasse. From biology to physics, astronomy to genetics, the scientific community is reaching the limits of understanding which often presage a complete rethinking of long-accepted theories. So characteristic of this new apex of modern arrogance is the inability to comprehend the obvious in physics: That we don't know what we are talking about.

Reality As Illusion - The Progress From Geometrical Intuition to Arithmetical Reasoning
by
John Thomas Didymus
The human tendency to a deep conviction of the ontological reality and epistemological validity of visual-sensory experience informs our tendency to heavy reliance on geometric intuition in mathematical thinking. However, as mathematics became more and more sophisticated, mathematicians began noticing that "visualization" methods of proof were often inadequate for rigorous mathematical proof, and that arithmetical analysis often yielded conflicting conclusions to what seemed geometrically obvious "truths." Should we believe then that our world is primarily a world of appearances which yields it's essential illusory nature at the assault of arithmetical logic?

Kardi Teknomo
Graph Theory is a very useful and fun subject. We start with historical Konigsberg Bridge Problem, then discuss about its applications. Finally we introduce pictorial introduction to graph theory explained in very gentle English. It is very fun and motivating to the young people to learn more on graph theory.
