Résumé
The goal of Mathematical Vistas is to stimulate the
interest of bright people in mathematics. The book consists
of nine related mathematical essays which will intrigue and
inform the curious reader. In order to offer a broad
spectrum of exciting developments in mathematics, topics
are treated at different levels of depth and thoroughness.
Some chapters can be understood completely with little
background, others can be thought of as appetizers for
further study. A number of BREAKS are included in each
chapter. These are problems designed to test the reader's
understanding of the material thus far in the chapter. This
book is a sequel to the authors's popular book
"Mathematical Reflections" and can be read independently.
