Search MAA Online MAA Home Ivars Peterson's MathLand September 2, 1996 Beyond the Ellipse There's a simple trick one can use to draw an ellipse. Tie the ends of a length of string to two pins (or thumbtacks) stuck in a sheet of paper on a drawing board. Then, keeping the string taut with the point of a pencil, allow the pencil to trace a path around the pins. The resulting curve is an ellipse, with the two pins, or fixed points, representing its foci. Drawing an ellipse. This drawing method takes advantage of the geometric fact that the sum of the distances from the foci of an ellipse is the same for all points on the curve. Thus, If A and B are the foci of an ellipse, the total distance (AP + PB) from the foci to any point P on the curve is constant. One can also ask what curve results when the total distance from three given points is kept the same. For example, suppose that the pins are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle. In this case, it's not possible to draw the figure using a pencil and string because the pins would end up getting in the way of the string. However, one can explore this possibility using a computer. That's precisely what Bilge Demirkoz, a 16-year-old high school student in Istanbul,Turkey, did to investigate what happens for not only three but also four fixed points. She presented a guided tour of her findings in this neglected corner of mathematics one evening at the Seattle Mathcamp (see last week's MathLand article

Bell, also known as John Taine. Two Remarkable Twos for Inverses to Some Abelian Integrals by Peter Lindqvist and Jaak Peetre lqvist@math.ntnu.no We refer to some interesting identities generalizing the familiar formula sin + cos = 1 as Ones. Such a formula was proved in 1879 by E. Lundberg for some "sines" and "cosines" arising from the inversion of an Abelian integral. The trigonometric One is a special case. These functions have applications to several branches of analysis. Our paper is concerned with two related identities called Twos. Our first Two is a generalization of the formula (1 + sl

He attended Stanford University and Columbia University and was on the faculty first at the University of Washington and later at the California Institute of Technology . He did research in number theory umbral calculus (understood at that time to be the same thing as the "symbolic method" of Blissard) logically rigorous. He is the eponym of the Bell polynomials and the Bell numbers of combinatorics . (He is not the eponym of the " bell curve ", which is so called because of its apparent similarity in shape to the cross section of a bell.) In he was awarded the Bôcher Memorial Prize for his work in mathematical analysis. He wrote a book of biographical sketches titled Men of Mathematics , which is still in print.

Mathematical Quotations B Back to MQS Home Page Back to "A" Quotations Forward to "C" Quotations Babbage, Charles (1792-1871) Errors using inadequate data are much less than those using no data at all. I wish to God these calculations had been executed by steam. In H. Eves In Mathematical Circles, , Boston: Prindle, Weber and Schmidt, 1969. On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kindof confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question. Bacon, Sir Francis (1561-1626) And as for Mixed Mathematics, I may only make this prediction, that there cannot fail to be more kinds of them, as nature grows further disclosed. Advancement of Learning book 2; De Augmentis book 3. Bacon, Roger For the things of this world cannot be made known without a knowledge of mathematics. Opus Majus part 4 Distinctia Prima cap 1 In the mathematics I can report no deficience, except that it be that men do not sufficiently understand the excellent use of the pure mathematics, in that they do remedy and cure many defects in the wit and faculties intellectual. For if the wit be too dull, they sharpen it; if too wandering, they fix it; if too inherent in the sense, they abstract it. So that as tennis is a game of no use in itself, but of great use in respect it maketh a quick eye and a body ready to put itself into all postures; so in the mathematics, that use which is collateral and intervenient is no less worthy than that which is principal and intended.

Username: Password: Sites for teachers Sites for parents Awards Interactive Activities ... Sites for parents One 4 Representing numbers as a result of arithmetic operations on a restricted set of numbers is an entertaining activity ( Three 3's Three 4's Three 5's Four 3's ... Four 5's ) that even lends itself to some degree of systematization . Since the basic arithmetic operations take two arguments (a+b, a*b, a b , etc.), it never occurred to me to consider representing numbers with a single selected number. For instance, 1 = [ 3!], 3 = 3. However, I received the following letter from one of the visitors: I have been interested in this puzzle for thirty years. Is it possible to represent the numbers 1 - 12 mathematically only using 1 four? F Fibonacci number B Bell number g gnomic number double factorial subfactorial T (triangular number 4) superfactorial 4). It was noted by Craig Katz that the superfactorial of 4, as defined below is rather 288. In fact, Regards, Robert Smith Well, there are at least two ways to look at the table. For one, I'll use it as an index to introduce the number families referred to by Robert (Fibonacci numbers, Bell numbers, ...). Secondly, since accepting notations that index such families of numbers (e.g., F ) would mean going beyond the original problem of representing numbers with arithmetic operations, I consider this a challenge to put up a similar table while staying in the framework of arithmetic operations.
