  Mathematics   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Mathematics is commonly defined as the study of patterns of structure, change, and space; more informally, one might say it is the study of 'figures and numbers'.
Mathematics might be seen as a simple extension of spoken and written languages, with an extremely precisely defined vocabulary and grammar, for the purpose of describing and exploring physical and conceptual relationships.
Although mathematics itself is not usually considered a natural science, the specific structures that are investigated by mathematicians often have their origin in the natural sciences, most commonly in physics.

The specific structures that are investigated by mathematicians often have their origin in the natural sciences, most commonly in physics, but mathematicians also define and investigate structures for reasons purely internal to mathematics, because the structures may provide, for instance, a unifying generalization for several subfields, or a helpful tool for common calculations.
Mathematics is often abbreviated to math in North America and maths in other English-speaking countries.
An alphabetical list of mathematical topics is available; together with the "Watch links" feature, this list is useful to track changes in mathematics articles.

In the formalist view, it is the investigation of axiomatically defined abstract structures using symbolic logic and mathematical notation; other views are described in the article on the philosophy of mathematics.

Mathematics (often abbreviated to maths or, in American English, math) is commonly defined as the study of patterns of structure, change, and space.
In the modern view, it is the investigation of axiomatically defined abstract structures using formal logic as the common framework, although some contest that this is necessary.
The specific structures investigated often have their origin in the natural sciences, most commonly in physics, but mathematicians also define and investigate structures for reasons purely internal to mathematics, because the structures may provide, for instance, a unifying generalization for several subfields, or a helpful tool for common calculations.

 General covariance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In theoretical physics, general covariance (also known as diffeomorphism invariance) is the invariance of physical laws (for example, the equations of general relativity) under arbitrary coordinate transformations.
This means, for example, that such laws take the same mathematical form regardless of whether they are expressed in an accelerating or non-accelerating reference frame.
Alternatively, one could say that a generally covariant theory is one which treats time-like and space-like coordinates in the same way.

 Oliver Heaviside Details, Meaning Oliver Heaviside Article and Explanation Guide
Heaviside showed mathematically that uniformly distributed inductance in a telegraph line would diminish both attenuation and distortion, and that, if the inductance were great enough and the insulation resistance not too high, the circuit would be distortionless while currentss of all frequencies would be equally attenuated.
Heaviside, after 1880, recast Maxwell's mathematical analysis from its original quaternion form to its modern vector terminology, thereby reducing the original twenty equations in twenty unknowns down to the four differential equations in four unknowns we now know as Maxwell's equations.

 Five Years of CSC Mathematical Topics
Now, in the middle of 1997, CSC Mathematical Topics is listed in about 700-1000 documents outside the Web servers at CSC, according to results of AltaVista searches.
The original contents of CSC Mathematical Topics were lists of mathematical Web servers organized by topic.
Also, maintaining a list of Web servers tends to be a time-consuming project, so I have tried to minimize the work by only including well-maintained and important sites.

When the MMAP designers hid the math problems in mathematical applications, teachers were pressed to create new opportunities and activities of learning, students were lost in the high-energy activity of and parents began worrying kids were not learning.
In teaching, first, we will compose a full list of mathematical topics that are related to the problems and application of the project.
Conclusion In the original Architech program, teachers complained about the lack of a clear mathematic framework, students had difficulty connecting the activities in the simulation to their understandings of math, and parents were concerned that their children were not doing enough math to meet standards.

 Final Report on Student Web-Based Project
The idea behind the research project is that students select from a list of approved mathematical topics, spend several months researching the topic until they become "experts" in their area and then write a paper and give a presentation to their classmates.
On the first day of the project, students were handed a sheet with all the deadlines as well as a rubric for how each portion of the project would be evaluated.
They were also given a list of possible topics for their research.
