An Elementary Transition to Abstract Mathematics: Textbooks in Mathematics
Autor Gove Effinger, Gary L. Mullenen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 ian 2023
The text is organized into five basic parts: the first looks back on selected topics from pre-calculus and calculus, treating them more rigorously, and it covers various proof techniques; the second part covers induction, sets, functions, cardinality, complex numbers, permutations, and matrices; the third part introduces basic number theory including applications to cryptography; the fourth part introduces key objects from abstract algebra; and the final part focuses on polynomials.
Features:
- The material is presented in many short chapters, so that one concept at a time can be absorbed by the student.
- Two "looking back" chapters at the outset (pre-calculus and calculus) are designed to start the student’s transition by working with familiar concepts.
- Many examples of every concept are given to make the material as concrete as possible and to emphasize the importance of searching for patterns.
- A conversational writing style is employed throughout in an effort to encourage active learning on the part of the student.

Notă biografică
Gove Effinger received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Massachusetts (Amherst) in 1981 and subsequently taught at Bates College for 5 years and then Skidmore College for 29 years. He is the author of two books: Additive Number Theory of Polynomials over a Finite Field (with David R. Hayes), and Common-Sense BASIC: Structured Programming with Microsoft QuickBASIC (with Alice M. Dean), as well as numerous research papers. His research focus has primarily been concerned with the similarities of the ring of polynomials over a finite field to the ring of ordinary integers.

Descriere
This text is intended to help students move from introductory courses to those where rigor and proof play a much greater role. The emphasis is on precise definitions of mathematical objects and rigorous proofs of properties.
