Calculus as an Example of Scientific Mathematics

Authors: Timothy W. Jones
Comments: 9 Pages.

We develop calculus from an experimental perspective. Using results from geometry and algebra, we generalize to other functions as a speculative act. Eventually formulas are created. This sequence reverses the usual hard things first approach of contemporary calculus text books.

The Majority Rule and Combinatorial Geometry (Via the Symmetric Group)

Authors: Thinh Nguyen
Comments: 0 Pages.

The Marquis du Condorcet recognized 200 years ago that majority rule can produce intransitive group preferences if the domain of possible (transitive) individual preference orders is unrestricted. We present results on the cardinality and structure of those maximal sets of permutations for which majority rule produces transitive results (consistent sets). Consistent sets that contain a maximal chain in the Weak Bruhat Order inherit from it an upper semimodular sublattice structure. They are intrinsically related to a special class of hamiltonian graphs called persistent graphs. These graphs in turn have a clean geometric interpretation: they are precisely visibility graphs of staircase polygons. We highlight the main tools used to prove these connections and indicate possible social choice and computational research directions.

Some Remarks on the Clique Problem

Authors: Thinh Nguyen
Comments: 3 Pages.

We survey some information about the clique problem - one of the cornerstone of the field of research in theory of algorithms. A short note at the end of the paper should be read with care on the reader’s own.
