    Extractions: Putnam Classic - This is a seminar aimed at college underclassmen, and is certainly suitable for freshmen. Typically, I give a short lecture on a subject, such as induction, and then hand out a slate of problems. students work in small groups, and forty-five minutes later pizza arrives, and students present their problems. Here is a problem set on induction and the latex source file . Here are some pictures from the HMC Putnam Seminar Putnam TNG This is a more advanced seminar ("TNG" stands for the "The Next Generation" a reference familiar to the trekkies among you) oriented around exclusively Putnam problems. Problems are handed out each week and the students are expected to have worked at least one problem and to be ready to present it in class. We again group problems by subject. Here is

I have used several search engines and they have the definition, but not the origin. Thank you for your consideration, Melanie Date: 07/15/99 at 11:59:13 From: Doctor Peterson Subject: Re: Powers of 10 Hi, Melanie. We get questions about this frequently, so I did a little extra research to find the details beyond what's in our archives. Here's a page on the Web that tells about the origin of the words googol and googolplex: How Many? A Dictionary of Units of Measurement http://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/units/dictG.html This says: "googol a unit of quantity equal to 10^100 (1 followed by 100 zeroes). The googol was invented by the American mathematician Edward Kasner (1878- 1955) in 1938. According to the story, Kasner asked his nephew Milton Sirotta, who was then 8 years old, what name he would give to a really large number, and "googol" was Milton's response. Kasner also defined the googolplex, equal to 10^googol, that is, 1 followed by a googol of zeroes. These inventions caught the public's fancy and are often mentioned in discussions of very large numbers." A slightly different version is in Googolplex http://www.fpx.de/fp/Fun/Googolplex/

51. Marshall Hampton Research Page
    Links, animations, references, and a brief description of research into nbody problems.  
    http://www.math.washington.edu/~hampton/research.html
    
    Extractions: My primary areas of mathematics are, broadly speaking, dynamical systems and geometry. My thesis is in the field of celestial mechanics. It is on the concave central configurations of the 4-body problem. Central configurations can be thought of as generating self-similar solutions of the n-body problem, which is (classically, at least) the study of the dynamics of n point masses interacting according to Newtonian gravity. The three-body case was solved by Euler and Lagrange . Euler found that for any ordering of three collinear point masses there was a spacing of the masses making them a central configuration. Lagrange found that the only non-collinear three-body central configuration is the equilateral triangle, which is a central configuration for any three (positive) masses. Here's an animation of one of the solutions of Lagrange. Here's an animation of a concave 4-body central configuration . Its a typical example of the sort of central configuration that I have shown exists for any four (positive) masses. A good place to start is the book Celestial Encounters, by Florin Diacu and Philip Holmes. Newton's Clock: Chaos in the Solar System, by Ivars Peterson, is also a very good nontechnical book about celestial mechanics, although not as closely related to what I am working on.

    Extractions: POINTERS: Texts Software Web links Selected topics here Real functions are those studied in calculus classes; the focus here is on their derivatives and integrals, and general inequalities. This category includes familiar functions such as rational functions. Calculus information goes here, perhaps. It is the express intention to exclude from this site any routine examples or theorems from comparatively elementary subjects such as introductory calculus. However, there are a few gems, some FAQs, and some nice theory even in the first semester course. There are some more subtle topics which don't often make it to a first-year course. Some elementary calculus topics may likewise be appropriate for inclusion in 28: Measure and Integration 40: Sequences and Series Approximations and expansions , and so on. Use of Newton's method is part of Optimization Articles which use results from calculus to solve some problem in, say, geometry would be included in that other page.)

    Extractions: You can verify that each of the three rows, the three columns, and the two diagonals add to 15. Magic Squares in History Magic squares have been studied for at least three thousand years, the earliest recorded appearance dating to about 2200 BC, in China. In the 9 th magic square with some very interesting properties is attributed to him. What is the Magic Sum? Given an normal magic square, suppose M is the number that each row, column and diagonal must add up to. Then since there are n rows the sum of all the numbers in the magic square must be . But the numbers being added are 1, 2, 3, ... n , and so 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n . In summation notation, . Using the formula for this sum, we have , and then solving for M gives . Thus, a normal magic square must have its rows, columns and diagonals adding to
