Math Talks for Undergraduates
Lang, Serge
Math Talks for Undergraduates / Serge Lang - New York, : Springer 1999. - ix, 121 pages 24cm.
Prime Numbers --
The abc Conjecture --
Global Integration of Locally Integrable Vector Fields --
Approximation Theorems of Analysis --
Other Connections --
Bruhat-Tits Spaces --
Harmonic and Symmetric Polynomials.
For many years Serge Lang has given talks to undergraduates on selected items in mathematics which could be extracted at a level understandable by students who have had calculus. Written in a conversational tone, Lang now presents a collection of those talks as a book. The talks could be given by faculty, but even better, they may be given by students in seminars run by the students themselves. Undergraduates, and even some high school students, will enjoy the talks which cover prime numbers, the abc conjecture, approximation theorems of analysis, Bruhat-Tits spaces, harmonic and symmetric polynomials, and more in a lively and informal style
