Paperback. Condición: Very Good. At the heart of relativity theory, quantum mechanics, string theory, and much of modern cosmology lies one concept: symmetry. In Why Beauty Is Truth , world-famous mathematician Ian Stewart narrates the history of the emergence of this remarkable area of study. Stewart introduces us to such characters as the Renaissance Italian genius, rogue, scholar, and gambler Girolamo Cardano, who stole the modern method of solving cubic equations and published it in the first important book on algebra, and the young revolutionary Evariste Galois, who refashioned the whole of mathematics and founded the field of group theory only to die in a pointless duel over a woman before his work was published. Stewart also explores the strange numerology of real mathematics, in which particular numbers have unique and unpredictable properties related to symmetry. He shows how Wilhelm Killing discovered Lie groups" with 14, 52, 78, 133, and 248 dimensions-groups whose very existence is a profound puzzle. Finally, Stewart describes the world beyond superstrings: the octonionic" symmetries that may explain the very existence of the universe. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. …

Condición: Very Good. : En este fascinante libro, Ian Stewart explora la historia de la simetría, un concepto central en la física moderna, desde la teoría de la relatividad hasta la mecánica cuántica y la teoría de cuerdas. Stewart presenta a personajes como Girolamo Cardano y Évariste Galois, y explora las propiedades de los números relacionados con la simetría. El autor también describe los grupos de Lie y las simetrías octoniónicas que podrían explicar la existencia del universo.
