Sobre IBD

Natural numbers are the oldest human invention. This book describes their nature, laws, history and current status. It has seven chapters. The first five chapters contain not only the basics of elementary number theory for the convenience of teaching and continuity of reading, but also many latest research results. The first time in history, the traditional name of the Chinese Remainder Theorem is replaced with the Qin Jiushao Theorem in the book to give him a full credit for his establishment of this famous theorem in number theory. Chapter 6 is about the fascinating congruence modulo an integer power, and Chapter 7 introduces a new problem extracted by the author from the classical problems of number theory, which is out of the combination of additive number theory and multiplicative number theory.One feature of the book is the supplementary material after each section, there by broadening the reader’s knowledge and imagination. These contents either discuss the rudiments of some aspects or introduce new problems or conjectures and their extensions, such as perfect number problem, Egyptian fraction problem, Goldbach’s conjecture, the twin prime conjecture, the 3x + 1 problem, Hilbert Waring problem, Euler’s conjecture, Fermat’s Last Theorem, Laudau’s problem and etc.This book is written for anyone who loves natural numbers, and it can also be read by mathematics majors, graduate students, and researchers. The book contains many illustrations and tables. Readers can appreciate the author’s sensitivity of history, broad range of knowledge, and elegant writing style, while benefiting from the classical works and great achievements of masters in number theory.

  • How Mathematicians Think
    William Byers
    To many outsiders, mathematicians appear to think like computers, grimly grinding away with a strict formal logic and moving methodically--even algorithmically--from one black-and-white deduction to another. Yet mathematicians often describe their most important breakthroughs as creative, intuitive responses to ambiguity, contradiction, and paradox. A unique examination of this...

  • PERFECT NUMBERS AND FIBONACCI SEQUENCES
    CAI TIANXIN / Tianxin Cai
    In this book, we first review the history and current situation of the perfect number problem, including the origin story of the Mersenne primes, and then consider the history and current situation of the Fibonacci sequence. Both topics include results from our own research. In the later sections, we define the square sum perfect numbers, and describe for the first time the sec...
