摘要
保罗-J.-纳欣(Paul J. Nahin)所著的《当最小就是最好:数学家如何发现让事物尽可能小(或尽可能大)的许多巧妙方法》(2021 年版)更新了 "过去二十几个世纪中许多杰出数学家在极值问题上所做工作 "的历史性但高度技术性的描述。
When Least Is Best: How Mathematicians Discovered Many Clever Ways to Make Things as Small (or as Large) as Possible (2021 ed.) by Paul J. Nahin updates a historical but highly technical account of "what many brilliant mathematicians have done in the subject of extrema over the last two dozen centuries."
