Sixth Form Pure Mathematics, Volume 1, Second Edition, is the first of a series of volumes on Pure Mathematics and Theoretical Mechanics for Sixth Form students whose aim is entrance into British and Commonwealth Universities or Technical Colleges. A knowledge of Pure Mathematics up to G.C.E. O-level is assumed and the subject is developed by a concentric treatment in which each new topic is used to illustrate ideas already treated. The major topics of Algebra, Calculus, Coordinate Geometry, and Trigonometry are developed together. This volume covers most of the Pure Mathematics required for the single subject Mathematics at Advanced Level. Early and rapid progress in calculus is made at the beginning of this volume in order to facilitate the student's progress along the most satisfactory lines in Pure Mathematics, in Theoretical Mechanics and in Physics. The worked examples are an essential feature of this book and they are followed by routine exercises within the text of each chapter, associated closely with the work on which they are dependent. The exercises at the end of each chapter collectively embody all the topics of that chapter and, where possible, the preceding chapters also.

Following on from Introducing Pure Mathematics by Smedley and Wiseman, Further Pure Mathematics covers in one volume all the pure mathematics required by students taking further mathematics. It also provides the basics for mathematics encountered in Higher Education. A clear text is supported by worked examples, exercises, and examination questions. The two books will cover the requirements of Pure Mathematics as part of double-certification Mathematics for any examinations board. · Clearly written explanations and graded worked examples to help students when they are studying alone · Wide variety of exercises · Comprehensive selection of recent exam questions from all the major examination boards

This volume continues the work covered in Core Maths or Mathematics - The Core Course for Advanced Level to provide a full two-year course in Pure Mathematics for A-Level.

Theoretical Mechanics for Sixth Forms, Second Edition is a 14-chapter book that begins by elucidating the nature of theoretical mechanics. The book then describes the statics of a particle in illustration of the techniques of handling vector quantities. Subsequent chapters focus on the principle of moments, parallel forces and centers of gravity; and the application of Newton's second law to the dynamics of a particle and the ideas of work and energy, impulse and momentum, and power. The concept of friction is also explained. This volume concludes with chapters concerning motion in a circle and simple harmonic motion. This text will serve as a more complete course for pupils taking mathematics as a single or double subject.

Includes twenty-six papers that survey a cross section of work in modern geometric measure theory and its applications in the calculus of variations. This title provides an access to the material, including introductions and summaries of many of the authors' much longer works and a section containing 80 open problems in the field.
