"This is the translation of the Japanese textbook for the grade 11 course, "Basic Analysis", which is one of three elective courses offered at this level in Japanese high schools. The book includes a thorough treatment of exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions, progressions, and induction method, as well as an extensive introduction to differential and integral calculus."--Publisher.

What kind of book is this? It is a book produced by a remarkable cultural circumstance in the former Soviet Union which fostered the creation of groups of students, teachers, and mathematicians called "mathematical circles". The work is predicated on the idea that studying mathematics can generate the same enthusiasm as playing a team sport - without necessarily being competitive. This book is intended for both students and teachers who love mathematics and want to study its various branches beyond the limits of school curriculum.

"This is the translation from the Japanese textbook for the grade 11 course, "General Mathematics". It is part of the easier of the three elective courses in mathematics offered at this level and is taken by about 40% of students. The book covers basic notions of probability and statistics, vectors, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions, and an introduction to differentiation and integration."--Publisher.

This volume contains translated articles originally published from 1970 to 1990 in the Russian journal "Kvant." The influence of this magazine on mathematics and physics education in Russia is unmatched. This volume initiates a collection that represents the Russian tradition of expository mathematical writing at its best. Written by leading Russian mathematicians and expositors, these articles present mathematics in a conceptual, entertaining, and accessible way. This volume is designed for students and teachers who love mathematics, and can expand on local school curriculum subjects. This second volume addresses diverse aspects of analysis and algebra.

This is the translation from the Japanese textbook for the grade 10 course, "Basic Mathematics". The book covers the material which is a compulsory for Japanese high school students. The course comprises algebra (including quadratic functions, equations, and inequalities), trigonometric functions, and plane coordinate geometry.

Offers a basic introduction to the types of problems that illustrate the earliest forms of algebra. This book presents some significant steps in solving equations and, wherever applicable, to link these developments to the extension of the number system. It analyzes various examples of problems, with their typical solution methods.

Three volumes originating from a series of lectures in mathematics given by professors of Kyoto University in Japan for high school students.

How quickly can you compute the remainder when dividing by 120143? Why would you even want to compute this? And what does this have to do with cryptography? Modern cryptography lies at the intersection of mathematics and computer sciences, involving number theory, algebra, computational complexity, fast algorithms, and even quantum mechanics. Many people think of codes in terms of spies, but in the information age, highly mathematical codes are used every day by almost everyone, whether at the bank ATM, at the grocery checkout, or at the keyboard when you access your email or purchase products online. This book provides a historical and mathematical tour of cryptography, from classical ciphers to quantum cryptography. The authors introduce just enough mathematics to explore modern encryption methods, with nothing more than basic algebra and some elementary number theory being necessary. Complete expositions are given of the classical ciphers and the attacks on them, along with a detailed description of the famous Enigma system. The public-key system RSA is described, including a complete mathematical proof that it works. Numerous related topics are covered, such as efficiencies of algorithms, detecting and correcting errors, primality testing and digital signatures. The topics and exposition are carefully chosen to highlight mathematical thinking and problem solving. Each chapter ends with a collection of problems, ranging from straightforward applications to more challenging problems that introduce advanced topics. Unlike many books in the field, this book is aimed at a general liberal arts student, but without losing mathematical completeness.
