| Title | Excursions in classical analysis: Pathways to advanced problem solving and undergraduate research |
| Author(s) | Hongwei Chen |
| Publication | Washington, Mathematical Association of America, 2010. |
| Description | xiii, 301p. |
| Abstract Note | Excursions in Classical Analysis will introduce students to advanced problem solving and undergraduate research in two ways: it will provide a tour of classical analysis, showcasing a wide variety of problems that are placed in historical context, and it will help students gain mastery of mathematical discovery and proof.
The author presents a variety of solutions for the problems in the book. Some solutions reach back to the work of mathematicians like Leonhard Euler while others connect to other beautiful parts of mathematics. Readers will frequently see problems solved by using an idea that might at first glance, not even seem to apply to that problem. Other solutions employ a specific technique that can be used to solve many different kinds of problems. Excursions emphasizes the rich and elegant interplay between continuous and discrete mathematics by applying induction, recursion, and combinatorics to traditional problems in classical analysis.
The carefully selected assortment of problems presented at the end of the chapters includes 22 Putnam problems, 50 MAA Monthly problems, and 14 open problems. These problems are not related to the chapter topics, but connect naturally to other problems and even serve as introductions to other areas of mathematics.
The book will be useful in students' preparations for mathematics competitions, in undergraduate reading courses and seminars, and in analysis courses as a supplement. The book is also ideal for self study, since the chapters are independent of one another and may be read in any order. |

| Title | Aha! solutions |
| Author(s) | Martin Erickson |
| Publication | Washington, Mathematical Association of America, 2009. |
| Description | xii, 207p. |
| Series | (MAA problem books series) |
| Abstract Note | This book is a collection of problems with aha! solutions. The problems are at the level of the college mathematics student, but there should be something of interest for the high school student, the teacher of mathematics, the ``math fan,'' and anyone else who loves mathematical challenges.
This collection includes one hundred problems in the areas of arithmetic, geometry, algebra, calculus, probability, number theory, and combinatorics. The problems start out easy and generally get more difficult as you progress through the book. A few solutions require the use of a computer. An important feature of the book is the bonus discussion of related mathematics that follows the solution of each problem. This material is there to entertain and inform you or point you to new questions. If you don't remember a mathematical definition or concept, there is a Toolkit in the back of the book that will help.
