Current and Future Perspectives of Ethnomathematics as a Program (ICME-13 Topical Surveys)
by Milton Rosa Ubiratan D'Ambrosio Daniel Clark Orey Lawrence Shirley Wilfredo V. Alangui Pedro Palhares Maria Elena GavarreteThis surveyon the modernity of ethnomathematics addresses numerousthemes related both to ethnomathematics and culturally relevant pedagogy. Itoffers a broader view of mathematics, including ideas, concepts, procedures,processes, methods and practices rooted in distinct cultural environments. Inaddition, by reflecting on the social and political dimensions ofethnomathematics, another important aspect of this research program is thedevelopment of innovative approaches for a dynamic and globalizedsociety. Ethnomathematics recognizes that members of different culturesdevelop unique mathematical techniques, methods and explanations that allow foran alternative understanding and transformation of societal norms. Thetheoretical basis of ethnomathematics offers a valid alternative to traditionalstudies of history, philosophy, cognition and pedagogical aspects ofmathematics. Ethnomathematics' current agenda is to continue an ongoing,progressive trajectory that contributes to the achievement of social justice, peaceand dignity for all.

Curvature Measures of Singular Sets (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)
by Martina Zähle Jan RatajThe book describes how curvature measures can be introduced for certain classes of sets with singularities in Euclidean spaces. Its focus lies on sets with positive reach and some extensions, which include the classical polyconvex sets and piecewise smooth submanifolds as special cases. The measures under consideration form a complete system of certain Euclidean invariants. Techniques of geometric measure theory, in particular, rectifiable currents are applied, and some important integral-geometric formulas are derived. Moreover, an approach to curvatures for a class of fractals is presented, which uses approximation by the rescaled curvature measures of small neighborhoods. The book collects results published during the last few decades in a nearly comprehensive way.

Curves and Surfaces (UNITEXT)
by M. Abate F. TovenaThe book provides an introduction to Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces. The theory of curves starts with a discussion of possible definitions of the concept of curve, proving in particular the classification of 1-dimensional manifolds. We then present the classical local theory of parametrized plane and space curves (curves in n-dimensional space are discussed in the complementary material): curvature, torsion, Frenet's formulas and the fundamental theorem of the local theory of curves. Then, after a self-contained presentation of degree theory for continuous self-maps of the circumference, we study the global theory of plane curves, introducing winding and rotation numbers, and proving the Jordan curve theorem for curves of class C2, and Hopf theorem on the rotation number of closed simple curves. The local theory of surfaces begins with a comparison of the concept of parametrized (i.e., immersed) surface with the concept of regular (i.e., embedded) surface. We then develop the basic differential geometry of surfaces in R3: definitions, examples, differentiable maps and functions, tangent vectors (presented both as vectors tangent to curves in the surface and as derivations on germs of differentiable functions; we shall consistently use both approaches in the whole book) and orientation. Next we study the several notions of curvature on a surface, stressing both the geometrical meaning of the objects introduced and the algebraic/analytical methods needed to study them via the Gauss map, up to the proof of Gauss' Teorema Egregium. Then we introduce vector fields on a surface (flow, first integrals, integral curves) and geodesics (definition, basic properties, geodesic curvature, and, in the complementary material, a full proof of minimizing properties of geodesics and of the Hopf-Rinow theorem for surfaces). Then we shall present a proof of the celebrated Gauss-Bonnet theorem, both in its local and in its global form, using basic properties (fully proved in the complementary material) of triangulations of surfaces. As an application, we shall prove the Poincaré-Hopf theorem on zeroes of vector fields. Finally, the last chapter will be devoted to several important results on the global theory of surfaces, like for instance the characterization of surfaces with constant Gaussian curvature, and the orientability of compact surfaces in R3.

Custom Search - Discover more: A Complete Guide to Google Programmable Search Engines
by Irina Shamaeva David Michael GalleyGoogle’s Programmable Search Engines (PSEs, previously called Custom Search Engines) provide search opportunities that are unavailable with any other tool. PSEs have advanced settings and search operators that are not supported by "regular" Google. With PSEs, it is possible to perform filtered searches within parts of the web as if they were databases! While lots of professionals use existing PSEs to source for talent or with other research goals, few people have experience creating them. Even fewer know about powerful PSE-only search operators. The main reason PSEs are not as popular as they should be is that it is not easy to get educated on PSE creation. There is little information online and no books (other than this one) on the subject. Even less info is available on the "structured" operators that allow for filtered searches. The first of its kind, this book hopes to popularize these fun and powerful tools so that many more people can include PSEs in their work. Key Features: A detailed introduction to creating PSEs, including info absent in Google’s help A "hack" for creating PSEs that look for profiles in seconds An introduction to advanced PSE-only search operators allowed to perform filtered searches of parts of the web A "hack" for expanding Google’s search limits to 500 terms Use cases, examples, and approaches that would be educational for those doing online research This book will be of interest to researchers, OSINT specialists, investigative journalists, Competitive Intelligence people, recruiters, and Sourcers, to name a few categories, and to the general public interested in how to search better.
