In Mathematics of the Transcendental, Alain Badiou painstakingly works through the pertinent aspects of category theory, demonstrating their internal logic and veracity, their derivation and distinction from set theory, and the 'thinking of being'. In doing so he sets out the basic onto-logical requirements of his greater and transcendental logics as articulated in his magnum opus, Logics of Worlds. Previously unpublished in either French or English, Mathematics of the Transcendental provides Badiou's readers with a much-needed complete elaboration of his understanding and use of category theory. The book is vital to understanding the mathematical and logical basis of his theory of appearing as elaborated in Logics of Worlds and other works and is essential reading for his many followers.

This attempt ultimately failed, but the project itself need not be abandoned. This book shows, via a detailed investigation of Kant's philosophy, that the only way to make sense of science is via transcendental mathematics.

Science is about the mundane, visible world. Religion is about the transcendent, invisible world. Atheists believe that science is the only way to explain the world. Agnostics think it's the best way. But is science actually a system of explanation at all, or merely a good problem-solving tool and method that achieves practical success in the observable world? Isn't science, like God, in need of an explanation? What is its ontological and epistemological basis? What limitations does it have? How does it define "Truth"? Immanuel Kant, via his philosophy of transcendental idealism, attempted to explain science within a philosophical and even religious context. This attempt ultimately failed, but the project itself need not be abandoned. This book shows, via a detailed investigation of Kant's philosophy, that the only way to make sense of science is via transcendental mathematics.

This monograph offers a fresh perspective on the applicability of mathematics in science. It explores what mathematics must be so that its applications to the empirical world do not constitute a mystery. In the process, readers are presented with a new version of mathematical structuralism. The author details a philosophy of mathematics in which the problem of its applicability, particularly in physics, in all its forms can be explained and justified. Chapters cover: mathematics as a formal science, mathematical ontology: what does it mean to exist, mathematical structures: what are they and how do we know them, how different layers of mathematical structuring relate to each other and to perceptual structures, and how to use mathematics to find out how the world is. The book simultaneously develops along two lines, both inspired and enlightened by Edmund Husserl's phenomenological philosophy. One line leads to the establishment of a particular version of mathematical structuralism, free of "naturalist" and empiricist bias. The other leads to a logical-epistemological explanation and justification of the applicability of mathematics carried out within a unique structuralist perspective. This second line points to the "unreasonable" effectiveness of mathematics in physics as a means of representation, a tool, and a source of not always logically justified but useful and effective heuristic strategies.

First published in 1975, this classic book gives a systematic account of transcendental number theory, that is those numbers which cannot be expressed as the roots of algebraic equations having rational coefficients. Their study has developed into a fertile and extensive theory enriching many branches of pure mathematics. Expositions are presented of theories relating to linear forms in the logarithms of algebraic numbers, of Schmidt's generalisation of the Thue-Siegel-Roth theorem, of Shidlovsky's work on Siegel's |E|-functions and of Sprindzuk's solution to the Mahler conjecture. The volume was revised in 1979: however Professor Baker has taken this further opportunity to update the book including new advances in the theory and many new references.

Paratattvaganitadarsanam, or Principles of Transcendental Philosophy of Mathematical Truth is a bridge connecting two fields, the field of mathematics and the field of metaphysics. It establishes general paradigm that the mathematical truth can represent metaphysical truth. It shows, in particular, that Advaita Vedanta articulates mathematical truths whose validity is absolute. This conclusion is arrived at on the basis of the fact that mathematics has the capacity to articulate transcendental truths, which are beyond our normal capabilities. Paratattvaganitadarsanam provides the basic framework in which the statement, 'a part is equal to the whole' is a true statement. The material is presented in the form of a dialogue between two main characters, a Vedantin and a Mathematician, 'both standing on a common platform (which is impartial and earnest inquiry into the Absolute and attainment of the highest)'.

This first volume in the series "Algorithms and Computation in Mathematics", is destined to become the standard reference work in the field. Manuel Bronstein is the number-one expert on this topic and his book is the first to treat the subject both comprehensively and in sufficient detail - incorporating new results along the way. The book addresses mathematicians and computer scientists interested in symbolic computation, developers and programmers of computer algebra systems as well as users of symbolic integration methods. Many algorithms are given in pseudocode ready for immediate implementation, making the book equally suitable as a textbook for lecture courses on symbolic integration.

Kant's views about mathematics were controversial in his own time, and they have inspired or infuriated thinkers ever since. Though specific Kantian doctrines fell into disrepute earlier in this century, the past twenty-five years have seen a surge of interest in and respect for Kant's philosophy of mathematics among both Kant scholars and philosophers of mathematics. The present volume includes the classic papers from the 1960s and 1970s which spared this renaissance of interest, together with updated postscripts by their authors. It also includes the most important recent work on Kant's philosophy of mathematics. The essays bring to bear a wealth of detailed Kantian scholarship, together with powerful new interpretative tools drawn from modern mathematics, logic and philosophy. The cumulative effect of this collection upon the reader will be a deeper understanding of the centrality of mathematics in all aspects of Kant's thought and a renewed respect for the power of Kant's thinking about mathematics. The essays contained in this volume will set the agenda for further work on Kant's philosophy of mathematics for some time to come.

Transcendental Curves in the Leibnizian Calculus analyzes a mathematical and philosophical conflict between classical and early modern mathematics.

Transcendental Curves in the Leibnizian Calculus analyzes the mathematical and philosophical conflict between Euclidean and Cartesian mathematics. For millennia, mathematical meaning and ontology had been anchored in geometrical constructions, as epitomized by Euclid's ruler and compass. As late as 1637, Descartes had placed himself squarely in this tradition when he justified his new technique of identifying curves with equations by means of certain curve-tracing instruments, thereby bringing together the ancient constructive tradition and modern algebraic methods in a satisfying marriage. But rapid advances in the new fields of infinitesimal calculus and mathematical mechanics soon ruined his grand synthesis. Descartes's scheme left out transcendental curves, i.e. curves with no polynomial equation, but in the course of these subsequent developments such curves emerged as indispensable. It was becoming harder and harder to juggle cutting-edge mathematics and ancient conceptions of its foundations at the same time, yet leading mathematicians, such as Leibniz felt compelled to do precisely this. The new mathematics fit more naturally an analytical conception of curves than a construction-based one, yet no one wanted to betray the latter, as this was seen as virtually tantamount to stop doing mathematics altogether. The credibility and authority of mathematics depended on it. Brings to light this underlying and often implicit complex of concerns that permeate early calculus Evaluates the technical conception and mathematical construction of the geometrical method Reveals a previously unrecognized Liebnizian programmatic cohesion in early calculus Provides a beautifully written work of outstanding original scholarship

Transcendental equations arise in every branch of science and engineering. While most of these equations are easy to solve, some are not, and that is where this book serves as the mathematical equivalent of a skydiver's reserve parachute--not always needed, but indispensible when it is. The author's goal is to teach the art of finding the root of a single algebraic equation or a pair of such equations.

Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics gives each number not only an abstract identity, but, a living one, due to the Imprint that each Number leaves, both in our surrounding Universe and in other Universes, whether they are parallel or not. This Imprint is due to the fact that each Number in turn represents a Creator Factor and Unique Incidentally, which represents the meaning of a certain Word therefore Understood, which in turn is part of the Universal Pure Language. The totality of the Words from the Universal Pure Language, constitutes the Unique Expression of the Universal Consciousness.These Imprints can be identified, to some extent, by Transcendental Numbers or by Transcendental Functions which prove that certain values cannot be changed to obtain some ideational representations, such as the example circle, whose coordinates are definitively influenced by the transcendental number π (Pi), i.e. 3.14. In the future, surely many Transcendental Numbers will be discovered that will help Mankind to identify through Mathematics not only abstract representations, but even states of soul. Each Number represents a different identity depending on the Universe in which it is located. In the essence of each Number is the Creator Factor and Unique Incidentally which governs it, essence that defines the soul of the respective Number, that is of the Creator Factor and Unique Incidentally that represents the Number in question. Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics is the one that defines the processes, of the Universal Pure Language, whose Words, in turn, are each, in part, the expression of a Creator Factor and Unique Incidentally, that is, of a Number, whose totality, defines the Universal Unique Consciousness. Through Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics, the science of mathematics becomes from an abstract discipline, a living one, which receives soul, which in turn gives to mathematics and a humanistic side. Thanks to Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics in the future we will be able to talk and about a mathematics of spiritual feelings, such as Religion, Love, Hate, Happiness, Sadness, Pain, Pride, Courage, etc. Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics will be able to solve many mysteries of the human soul in the future, being the only link that can build a bridge between us and the Truth that is so Unknown to us because everything we live and feel is due to the Illusion of Life. Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics will be the literature of the future of Artificial Intelligence. At the basis of Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics is Semantic Coaxiology, but also Coaxiological Logic, these fields of Coaxialism. Transcendental numbers, such as the number π (Pi), for example, prove to us concretely that Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics exists by the fact that there is a link of concrete causality between the geometrical representation of the circle and the transcendental number π (Pi,. The number π (Pi), can never be, neither smaller, but nor larger than 3.14 to become operational in the calculations related to the circle. While the circle is a geometric figure that has an active role in human knowledge and feeling. Here is one of the links that proves to us that Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics exists and that it only needs to be developed. Through my philosophical works I have tried to lay the foundations of what Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics means from a philosophical point of view and how it can be determined. The principles of my philosophical system called Coaxialism as well as those of Coaxiological Logic are in law and de facto in turn the basic principles of Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics. Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics is a bridge between us who are lost in the Illusions of Life with the Absolute Truth. In transcendental reality there are an infinity of transcendental numbers, only that we will not be able to know them with the reduced capacities of our present brain, a brain that thinks only with about a tenth of its capacity, which has been attributed to it by natural evolution. Maybe somewhere in our distant history there was a genetic accident, more precisely a genetic intervention, from the exterior, on the human genome, an intervention that led to the constraint of using the full capacity of our brain for reasons unknown to us. Nature never makes an organ evolve without any meaning but with a certain purpose, in the case of our brain, the purpose being that to think and perceive through it, the World. Thus we can say that somewhere in the mists of history our ancestors had other abilities to discern the World from us. Returning to the transcendental numbers, which are revealed to us only a few of their infinity, as many as would exist in reality. Every object, thing, phenomenon or physico-chemical process that surrounds us is the work of transcendental numbers, which one day we will discover with the help of Artificial Intelligence. Only then will we be able to talk about Mathematical Psychology, the one which will become the basic branch of Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics. Even a poem or a song will be understood through transcendental numbers and Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics. The time will come when the letters that make up literary pages can be replaced with numbers, which we will understand and feel same like some words, only that for this we will have to develop our own brain on another level. A thing that is possible with the help of Artificial Intelligence. In the future, Transcendental Functions and Transcendental Numbers will be the ones that will form the backbone of Transcendental Coaxiological Mathematics in relation to the process of Knowledge, a field that will have to be developed, especially by Artificial Intelligence. What is known so far about these Transcendental Functions, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica, is that, I quote: " In mathematics, a transcendental function is an analytic function that does not satisfy a polynomial equation, in contrast to an algebraic function In other words, a transcendental function "transcends" algebra in that it cannot be expressed in terms of a finite sequence of the algebraic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, raising to a power, and root extraction" end quote. Examples of transcendental functions include the exponential function, the logarithm, and the trigonometric functions.

This volume consists of a collection of papers devoted primarily to transcendental number theory and diophantine approximations written by the author. Most of the materials included in this volume are English translations of the author's Russian manuscripts, extensively rewritten and brought entirely up to date. These papers and other papers included in this volume were available to specialists in manuscript form, but this is the first time that they have been collected and published.Though the earlier papers have been preserved in the form in which they were prepared initially, the volume is organized in such a way as to reflect recent progress and to allow readers to follow recent developments in the field. As an introductory guide to the volume, the author included an expanded and updated text of his invited address on his work on the theory of transcendental numbers to the 1978 International Congress of Mathematicians in Helsinki. The appendix contains a paper on the extremality of certain multidimensional manifolds prepared by A. I. Vinogradov and the author in 1976. Chudnovsky received a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship in 1981.

The text also chronicles the historical development of the theory's methods and explores the connections with other problems in number theory.

Primarily an advanced study of the modern theory of transcendental and algebraic numbers, this treatment by a distinguished Soviet mathematician focuses on the theory's fundamental methods. The text also chronicles the historical development of the theory's methods and explores the connections with other problems in number theory. The problem of approximating algebraic numbers is also studied as a case in the theory of transcendental numbers. Topics include the Thue-Siegel theorem, the Hermite-Lindemann theorem on the transcendency of the exponential function, and the work of C. Siegel on the transcendency of the Bessel functions and of the solutions of other differential equations. The final chapter considers the Gelfond-Schneider theorem on the transcendency of alpha to the power beta. Each proof is prefaced by a brief discussion of its scheme, which provides a helpful guide to understanding the proof's progression.

The series is devoted to the publication of monographs and high-level textbooks in mathematics, mathematical methods and their applications. Apart from covering important areas of current interest, a major aim is to make topics of an interdisciplinary nature accessible to the non-specialist. The works in this series are addressed to advanced students and researchers in mathematics and theoretical physics. In addition, it can serve as a guide for lectures and seminars on a graduate level. The series de Gruyter Studies in Mathematics was founded ca. 30 years ago by the late Professor Heinz Bauer and Professor Peter Gabriel with the aim to establish a series of monographs and textbooks of high standard, written by scholars with an international reputation presenting current fields of research in pure and applied mathematics. While the editorial board of the Studies has changed with the years, the aspirations of the Studies are unchanged. In times of rapid growth of mathematical knowledge carefully written monographs and textbooks written by experts are needed more than ever, not least to pave the way for the next generation of mathematicians. In this sense the editorial board and the publisher of the Studies are devoted to continue the Studies as a service to the mathematical community. Please submit any book proposals to Niels Jacob.
