About this Item

Print on Demand. This book explores the theory of ikosahedron and elliptic modular functions, developing insights into single-valued functions with linear transformations. It positions this knowledge within the broader context of modern analytic theory, presenting the first place in these pages to the subject of the ikosahedron and treating this as the true basis of the processes of solution. The author has introduced into the details of these expositions the practices of their lecture-room. It is in this spirit the title should be interpreted: the author would have the reader see in the term not a particular case but rather the general principle involved. The fundamental problem is solved here by reducing the form-problem, and the intricate equations discussed by the author are solved by linear differential equations of the second order. The author provides a fresh calculation of the magnitude, m, and geometrical interpretation of Gordans theory and concludes with algebraical aspects after Gordan. This book contributes to pressing need of text-books upon the higher branches of mathematic, and will be of particular interest to those already familiar with the field. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. Seller Inventory # 9781333653231_0

About this title

Synopsis:

Excerpt from Lectures on the Ikosahedron, and the Solution of Equations of the Fifth Degree

It would be out of place to Speak here of the book itself; a glance at the table of contents will suggest that tract of beautiful country, seen at first in the distance, but which will bear to be rambled through and studied in every detail of hill-side and valley, stream, rock, wood, and ?ower.
