    Terence Chi-Shen Tao FAA FRS (Chinese: 陶哲軒; born 17 July 1975) is an Australian-American mathematician, Fields medalist, and professor of mathematics at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where he holds the James and Carol Collins Chair in the College of Letters and Sciences.

  3. Criticism of nonstandard analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_nonstandard...

    Also nonstandard analysis as developed is not the only candidate to fulfill the aims of a theory of infinitesimals (see Smooth infinitesimal analysis). Philip J. Davis wrote, in a book review of Left Back: A Century of Failed School Reforms [3] by Diane Ravitch: [4] There was the nonstandard analysis movement for teaching elementary calculus.

  4. Parity problem (sieve theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_problem_(sieve_theory)

    Terence Tao gave this "rough" statement of the problem: [1]. Parity problem.If A is a set whose elements are all products of an odd number of primes (or are all products of an even number of primes), then (without injecting additional ingredients), sieve theory is unable to provide non-trivial lower bounds on the size of A.

  5. Smooth infinitesimal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smooth_infinitesimal_analysis

    Terence Tao has referred to this concept under the name "cheap nonstandard analysis." [1] The nilsquare or nilpotent infinitesimals are numbers ε where ε² = 0 is true, but ε = 0 need not be true at the same time. Calculus Made Easy notably uses nilpotent infinitesimals.

  6. Restricted isometry property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restricted_isometry_property

    The concept was introduced by Emmanuel Candès and Terence Tao [1] and is used to prove many theorems in the field of compressed sensing. [2] There are no known large matrices with bounded restricted isometry constants (computing these constants is strongly NP-hard , [ 3 ] and is hard to approximate as well [ 4 ] ), but many random matrices ...

  7. Mathematical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_analysis

    Functional analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis, the core of which is formed by the study of vector spaces endowed with some kind of limit-related structure (e.g. inner product, norm, topology, etc.) and the linear operators acting upon these spaces and respecting these structures in a suitable sense.
