Transoxiana 5 - Diciembre 2002 Las matemáticas en el Islam medieval Enrique A. Chaparro Comentario preliminar Este artículo es parte de una serie, cuyo propósito es divulgar los aspectos más destacados del desarrollo de las matemáticas en el Islam medieval. Este documento en particular proporciona una introducción general al asunto, y presenta con mayor extensión al más notable de los matemáticos del siglo IX, al-Khwarizmi; otros documentos de esta serie analizarán las contribuciones de los científicos del Islam en este campo, particularmente entre los siglos IX y XII. Introducción y motivación Valoración de la ciencia islámica Durante mucho tiempo, y aún entre los historiadores de la ciencia, se ha sostenido que, luego de un brillante período en que los griegos establecieron las fundaciones de las matemáticas, hubo un lapso de estancamiento antes de que los europeos, a comienzos del siglo XVI, reiniciaran el camino en el punto en que los griegos lo dejaran. La percepción común del período de alrededor de mil años entre los antiguos griegos y el Renacimiento europeo es que pocas novedades surgieron en el campo matemático, excepto por algunas traducciones árabes de obras griegas que preservaron las enseñanzas helénicas para que estuvieran disponibles para los europeos al comenzar el siglo XVI. No debería sorprendernos la generalidad de esta percepción. Muchos importantes historiadores de la ciencia han contribuido a sostener esta visión, ya sea omitiendo cualquier mención a las matemáticas del Islam en el desarrollo histórico, o con declaraciones como la de Duhem en [

Activity report of the Commission for the period 1993-1997 The president’s report The main activity of the Commission in 1996-97 has been to concentrate on organizing a symposium at ICHS-97. The first draft of the Symposium on Science and Technology in Islamic Civilization was circulated, already in the autumn of 1995, among several members of the Commission. At that point of time, the aim and objective of the Symposium was to critically review the researches carried out during the present century and to concentrate in the original contributions on Islamic Science and Technology beyond the classical period in Islamic Middle Ages. However, a number of other symposia were also proposed, for instance, on sciences in Iran, Turkey, etc. The president of this Commission suggested then to rope in "formally" all other proposed symposia under the auspices of the Commission by allotting one full day to each theme. Unfortunately this suggestion was not agreed upon. Further, the ad-hoc programme committee of ICHS suggested to have one sectional meeting of the Congress devoted exclusively to the "

Math News Home 31 maggio 2003 Numeri amicali Due interi positivi m,n si dicono amicali (in inglese amicable ) se: s (m) = s (n) = m + n dove s (x) è la somma di tutti i divisori di x Se definiamo la funzione f(x): f(x) = somma dei divisori di x minori di x equivalentemente f(x) = s (x) - x allora m,n sono amicali se e solo se n = f(m) m = f(n) La prima coppia di numeri amicali che si incontra è (220, 284). Infatti: f(220) = 1 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 10 + 11 + 20 + 22 + 44 + 55 + 110 = 284 f(284) = 1 + 2 + 4 + 71 + 142 = 220 Questa coppia era nota già a Pitagora, e forse prima.

Islamic astronomy by Owen Gingerich Scientific American , April 1986 v254 p74(10) Historians who track the development of astronomy from antiquity to the Renaissance sometimes refer to the time from the eighth through the 14th centuries as the Islamic period. During that interval most astronomical activity took place in the Middle East North Africa and Moorish Spain. While Europe languished in the Dark Ages, the torch of ancient scholarship had passed into Muslim hands. Islamic scholars kept it alight, and from them it passed to Renaissance Europe. Two circumstances fostered the growth of astronomy in Islamic lands. One was geographic proximity to the world of ancient learning, coupled with a tolerance for scholars of other creeds. In the ninth century most of the Greek scientific texts were translated into Arabic, including Ptolemy's Syntaxis , the apex of ancient astronomy. It was through these translations that the Greek works later became known in medieval Europe . (Indeed, the Syntaxis is still known primarily by its Arabic name, Almagest, meaning "the greatest.")

All Articles Zayd ibn Thabit and the Glorious Qur’an by Mohamad K. Yusuff Introduction: In any systematic study of the history of Islam covering the past 1,420 years A.H., an objective reader of history will encounter varied classes of eminent Muslim men and women scattered across the vast geography of the then Islamic empire. The intellectual contributions of these scholars, jurists, and theologians toward the promotion of Islam as a faith and a way of life have been well documented over time. However, within the narrower field of study, dealing exclusively with the textual history of the Sacred Qur’an, from revelation to compilation, no single individual—man or woman (in my view), has personally contributed more to, (or has played a more dominant role in), the compilation of the Qur’anic manuscript (gathered together under two covers) than Zayd ibn Thabit, the Prophet’s junior companion from Madina The sacred Text we hold and touch today can be truly called “the Qur’an of Zayd ibn Thabit.”
