NZMS Newsletter #73 CENTREFOLD John Fauvel This year's New Zealand Mathematical Society Visiting Lecturer, John Fauvel, is a historian of mathematics from the Open University in the UK. He will arrive in Auckland on 26 September, and spend the next three weeks touring through the universities in a southerly direction. The Open University teaches students who are studying part-time, from home, and has built up a strong reputation for the quality of its teaching materials designed to be studied at a distance. John brings on his visit to New Zealand a great enthusiasm for mathematics education at all levels, and the use of history of mathematics within that teaching and learning process. This is the first time that the New Zealand Mathematical Society Visiting Lecturer has been a specialist in the history of mathematics. A Scot, born in Glasgow, John was educated in mathematics at the universities of Essex and Warwick before joining the Open University to help in an area which the University (then in its early years) was seeking to develop, the history of mathematics. Since then he has worked on mathematics as well as interdisciplinary courses. It was for an Open University course on the history of mathematics that John produced, with his OU colleague Jeremy Gray, one of the leading source-books in the field, "The history of mathematics: a reader" (Macmillan 1987). John's last visit to New Zealand, in 1995, was to make some films for the Open University's foundation mathematics course, having returned from an earlier visit to insist to his UK colleagues that every possible way in which mathematical modelling is used to understand the world can be found in New Zealand! The films include the modelling work of Colin Fox (University of Auckland), David Fletcher (University of Otago), and Dion Burns (University of Otago), an interview with statistician Wiremu Solomon (University of Auckland), and include, too, the 1858 Maori arithmetic which John found in the Auckland Public Library on his previous visit, thanks to the help of New Zealand's historian-in-residence Garry Tee and Auckland mathematics educator Bill Barton.

British Society for the History of Philosophy Leibniz and the English-Speaking World Abstracts LEIBNIZ AND THE HARTLIB CIRCLE Maria Rosa Antognazza (King's College, London) LEIBNIZ, THE CAUSE OF GRAVITY AND PHYSICAL THEOLOGY Robin Attfield (University of Cardiff) Leibniz's Fourth Paper to Clarke introduces the charge that Newton's belief in gravitation introduces occult powers into physics, and that this involves a premature resort to the supernatural. While Clarke rejected this charge, presenting in his Fifth Reply the official positivistic Newtonian line, he and Newton probably believed something close to what Leibniz charged him with maintaining, holding that God, through his omnipresence, causes the otherwise mysterious phenomenon of action at a distance, until in 1717 (after Leibniz's death) Newton denounced this stance. In this short paper I attempt to disentangle the threads of this dispute, and to appraise the relevant theology and physics at issue, plus the implicit suggestion of Leibniz that Newton was guilty of (in Austin Farrer's phrase) 'physical theology'.

Sobre el autor El método de las fluxiones Se franquea una segunda etapa en el momento en que Newton acaba, en 1671, su obra Methodus fluxionum et serierum infiniturum, comenzada en 1664. Newton tenía intención de publicarla, en particular en su Opticks, pero a causa de las críticas formuladas anteriormente con respecto a sus principios sobre la naturaleza de la luz, decidió no hacerlo. De hecho, será publicada en 1736 en edición inglesa, y no será publicada en versión original hasta 1742. Newton expone en este libro su segunda concepción del análisis introduciendo en sus métodos infinitesimales el concepto de fluxión. En su prefacio, Newton comenta la decisión de Mercator de aplicar al álgebra la «doctrina de las fracciones decimales», porque, dice, «esta aplicación abre el camino para llegar a descubrimientos más importantes y más difíciles». Después habla del papel de las sucesiones infinitas en el nuevo análisis y de las operaciones que se pueden efectuar con esas sucesiones. La primera parte de la obra se refiere justamente a la reducción de «términos complicados» mediante división y extracción de raíces con el fin de obtener sucesiones infinitas.

This was to prepare a note for misunderstanding (perhaps, more accurately, a mistake!) in the first edition. This note had to be short (to fit in the available space though at a very late stage it was decided to reset the while book, so this became irrelevant) and biased towards the interests of the book as a whole, so it omits the detail that has been under discussion in the recent discussion on the math-history list. In particular, it doesn't engage with the issue of augrym, What I eventually arrived at is the following. (This omits italic, a bit of Greek, formatting, etc.)

Mit Verfahren wie der Regula Falsi und dem Newton-Verfahren , die nur eine Nullstelle finden, ist es nicht m¶glich, komplexe Nullstellen zu finden, ohne dass auch die Berechnung im Komplexen mit komplexer Arithmetik ausgef¼hrt wird. Das Bairstow-Verfahren nutzt die Eigenschaft von Polynomen mit reellen Koeffizienten, die besagt, dass komplexe Nullstellen immer paarweise konjugiert auftreten. Das Verfahren findet die Nullstellen als Paar und liefert eine quadratische Gleichung mit reellen Koeffizienten, die das Nullstellenpaar liefert.

70. Sir Isaac Newton After Newton published his method, joseph raphson presented a modification ofthe method using the same equation over and over again with the new values. http://www.lucasianchair.org/lucasianchair.org/newton.html

Sir Isaac Newton "Nature and Nature's laws lay hid in the night; God said, Let Newton be! And all was light." Alexander Pope Isaac Newton (1642-1727) is perhaps the most famous Lucasian Professor of Mathematics. He is probably best known to the average person because of the story of the falling apple and its relationship to the discovery of gravity. Newton discovered the force of gravity, and today the search is for its carrier: gravity waves. The years in between are a fascinating scientific story, detailed in a book edited by the current Lucasian professor, Stephen Hawking, Three Hundred Years of Gravitation. Newton arrived at Cambridge in 1661, was elected scholar in 1664, graduated BA in 1664/5 in a class of twenty-six from Trinity, and made MA in 1668. During a wonderful surge of scientific production Newton produced three great achievements in the short space of two years. The first great achievement was the invention of fluxions, which resulted in calculus. He used this knowledge to advance his other work. Newton's second great achievement was the discovery of the law of the composition of light, later used in the development of optics. His third great achievement, the discovery of the universal force of gravity, was the basis for the Principia , his ultimate achievement.

Setting Edwards' views within a context of contemporary European thought, it elucidates his early position, as expressed in the opening portion of his essay 'Of Being' (c. 1721), and then proceeds to chart the development of his more mature views, showing in particular how the development of his immaterialism during the early 1720s drove him to change his mind on the issue of space and its relationship with God.

Earliest Known Uses of Some of the Words of Mathematics (A) Last revision: Jan. 26, 2005 ABELIAN EQUATION is named for a kind of equation treated by Niels Henrik Abel (1802-1829) in his "Mémoire sur une classe particulière d'équations résoluble algébriquement" (1829) Oeuvres Complètes, Leopold Kronecker (1823-1891) introduced the term Abelsche Gleichung in an 1853 paper on algebraically soluble equations, "Über die algebraisch auflösbren Gleichungen, erste Abhandlung" in Werke IV , p. 27ff. Kronecker used the term to describe an equation which in modern terms would be described as having cyclic Galois group. According to B. L. van der Waerden A History of Algebra (1985, p. 149) Kronecker was the first German mathematician to fully recognise the importance of the investigations of Abel and Galois on the solubility of algebraic equations. [John Aldrich, Peter M. Neumann] ABELIAN FUNCTION. C. G. J. Jacobi (1804-1851) proposed the term Abelsche Transcendenten (Abelian transcendental functions) in Crelle's Journal Werke III , p. 481. (DSB).
