1. A strange determinant
推荐理由
Gowers has one of my favourite video series about how he approaches a problem he is unfamiliar with
说明
这是2021年由Timothy Gowers发布的一部课堂讲座,主题归在Pure mathematics。它讲的是mathematical problem solving这一支里的具体问题,而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合已经能看懂基本术语、想继续往下走的人。内容上可以概括成:Timothy Gowers thinks aloud, in real time, as he tries to understand why Pascal's determinant equals 1. He does not fully solve it in this episode, but shows his exploratory process.这些读者给出的理由,核心是:HN commenters recommend it to see how a top mathematician approaches an unfamiliar problem through experiments and curiosity.讲法不绑某一条新闻,过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2022年到2026年,有3位不同的读者在3个不同月份把它推荐出来,其中明确叫别人去看的有1次。节奏接近上课,可以暂停做笔记。它假设你愿意跟着一条推导走完。如果已经会了基本定义,就把注意力放在它怎么把mathematical problem solving变成能跟着复述的例子。
