A Álgebra é generosa; ela frequentemente dá mais do que aquilo que lhe é pedido. (D'Alembert)
“Eu sou um matemático e gostaria de subir no seu telhado.”
Foi assim que Ron Eglash cumprimentou várias famílias africanas enquanto pesquisava os padrões africanos de fractais que descobriu por todo o continente.

Esta série de 13 programas é uma viagem não linear em barco de duas quilhas: uma é a Arte, a outra a Matemática, interligadas por uma estrutura segura, a Estética.
Em todas as épocas, os homens observam a Natureza e procuraram respostas para as suas perguntas. Alguns chegaram à música, outros desenvolveram as esculturas. A harmonia foi contraposta ao caos. Alguns perceberam a regularidade na natureza, outros se encontraram com o inesperado.

Les Nobel ont cent ans. L’impressionnante liste des lauréats du Prix Nobel montre ce que la pensée scientifique, occidentale d’abord puis mondiale, a produit de plus performant au service de la connaissance. L’histoire de ces éminents savants, tels Einstein, Pierre et Marie Curie, Pavlov, Flemming, etc. c’est l’histoire du XXe siècle. Leur vie croise les grands événements historiques, leurs découvertes y contribuent et en sont parfois à l’origine.
L’ambition de cette série est de montrer qu’avec ces femmes et ces … Ler mais
A Brilliant Madness is the story of a mathematical genius whose career was cut short by a descent into madness. At the age of 30, John Nash, a stunningly original and famously eccentric MIT mathematician, suddenly began claiming that aliens were communicating with him and that he was a special messenger. Diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, Nash spent the next three decades in and out of mental hospitals, all but forgotten.
During that time, a proof he had written at … Ler mais
Documentary which looks at how developments in mathematics over the past 40 years have completely changed our understanding of the fundamental nature of the world we live in.
As we approach tipping points in both the economy and the climate, the film examines the mathematics we have been reluctant to face up to and asks if, even now, we would rather bury our heads in the sand rather than face harsh truths.

For more than 2000 years, a mathematical riddle has baffled the world’s greatest minds. It’s a problem of such difficulty that it has tormented those mathematicians brave enough to tackle it. Some have given up in despair. Others have been driven mad.
Yet it’s a conundrum that helped Britain to win the Second World War; that was instrumental in the birth of the computer; and that has shed light on the behaviour of atoms, the building blocks of matter itself.… Ler mais

Exactly 100 years ago, Albert Einstein grappled with the implications of his revolutionary special theory of relativity and came to a startling conclusion: mass and energy are one, related by the formula E = mc2. In “Einstein’s Big Idea,” NOVA dramatizes the remarkable story behind this equation.
E = mc2 was just one of several extraordinary breakthroughs that Einstein made in 1905, including the completion of his special theory of relativity, his identification of proof … Ler mais
I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay undiscovered before me. — Sir Isaac Newton

You may not know it, but fractals, like the air you breathe, are all around you. Their irregular, repeating shapes are found in cloud formations and tree limbs, in stalks of broccoli and craggy mountain ranges, even in the rhythm of the human heart. In this film, NOVA takes viewers on a fascinating quest with a group of maverick mathematicians determined to decipher the rules that govern fractal geometry.
For centuries, fractal-like irregular shapes were considered beyond the boundaries … Ler mais
At 2pm on October 29th, 1998, at Christie’s auction house in New York, a very special old book was sold to an anonymous collector for $2,000,000. This collector deposited the manuscript at The Walters Art Museum in Baltimore in order to conserve it, image it, and study it.
The book is special because it contains seven treatises by the ancient Greek mathematician Archimedes. Two of these treatises, The Stomachion and The Method exist nowhere else in the world. This … Ler mais
Twenty-two centuries after Archimedes wrote his most revealing mathematical work, and eight centuries after a Christian monk erased what may have been the last surviving copy, the lost treatise has turned up and is being deciphered in a Baltimore museum. “Infinite Secrets” reports the story of the manuscript’s amazing discovery and how modern technology is being used to read its startling contents.
Archimedes is famous for shouting “Eureka!” (Greek for “I have found it!”) on stepping into his … Ler mais
