VIVA BOOKS PRIVATE LIMITED Knots: Mathematics With a Twist by Alexie Sossinsky
Ornaments and icons symbols of complexity or evil aesthetically appealing and endlessly useful in everyday ways knots are also the object of mathematical theory used to unravel ideas about the topological nature of space. In recent years knot theory has been brought to bear on the study of equations describing weather systems mathematical models used in Physics and even with the realisation that DNA sometimes is knotted molecular biology. This book written by a mathematician known for his own work on knot theory is a clear concise and engaging introduction to this complicated subject. A guide to the basic ideas and applications of knot theory knots takes us from Lord kelvin S early and mistaken idea of using the knot to model the Atom almost a century and a half ago to the central problem confronting knot theorists today distinguishing among various knots classifying them and finding a straightforward and General way of determining whether two knots treated as mathematical objects are equal. Communicating the excitement of recent ferment in the field as well as the joys and frustrations of his own work alexei sossinsky reveals how analogy speculation coincidence mistakes hard work aesthetics and intuition figure far more than plain logic or magical inspiration in the process of discovery. His spirited timely and lavishly illustrated work shows us the pleasure of Mathematics for its own sake as well as the surprising usefulness of its connection to real-world problems in the sciences. It will instruct and delight the expert the amateur and the curious alike.
