Topics
- Complex numbers 1: definitions and basic operationslesson · in ItalianI numeri complessi 1: definizioni e operazioni fondamentali
A class of numbers born to take square roots of negative numbers, which turned into a powerful tool for describing physical phenomena and for mathematics itself.
- Complex numbers 2: Euler’s formula, complex powers and logarithmslesson · in ItalianI numeri complessi 2: formula di Eulero, potenze e logaritmi complessi
The Euler–Cotes formula, a “jewel” according to Richard Feynman, and its role in waves, quantum mechanics and differential equations. Powers with complex exponents, the exponential and the logarithm.
- Math in small doses: the sum Σ f(t)Δf(t) and the work–energy theoremlesson · in ItalianMatematica in pillole: la somma Σ f(t)Δf(t) e il teorema delle forze vive
