Abstract:
The life that is lived now and in the future cannot be separated from the role of history in the past. Mathematics learning plays an important role in everyday life, often we find problems in everyday life can be solved with mathematical concepts. In learning mathematics, mathematical scientists contribute greatly to the learning of mathematics and mathematical concepts. It cannot be denied, in the golden age of Islam many Muslim scientists sprang up, including mathematical scientists. Muslim mathematicians who were very famous, one of them was al- Khawarizmi. The branch of science in mathematics put forward by al- Khawarizmi is Algebra. Algebra is very much used in the life of the current global era. Algebra is found in many daily activities, such as buying and selling, Mawaris knowledge, and so on. al- Khawarizmi is also an inventor of zeros and the originator of the concept of algorithms. In addition, this paper will discuss the contribution of scientist Ibn al- Haytham to the concept of absolute value, al- Biruni towards the concept of "The Broken Chord" theorem, al- Khayyami on the concept of geometry. The mathematical concepts found by scientists are what we use a lot today to solve problems used in everyday life.

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to introduce Muḥammad ibn Mûsâ al-Khwârizmî and his works in terms of history of mathematics and mathematics education. Muḥammad ibn Musa al-Khwârizmî an Iraqi Muslim scholar and it is the first of the Muslim mathematicians who have contributed to this field by taking an important role in the progress of mathematics in his own period. He found the concept of Algorithm in mathematics. In some circles, he was given the nickname Abu Ilmi’l-Hâsûb (the father of the account). He carried out important studies in algebra, triangle, astronomy, geography and map drawing. Algebra has carried out systematic and logical studies on the solution of inequalities at second level in the development of the algebra. He with all these studies have contributed to mathematical science and today was a guide to the works done in the field of mathematics.

Abstract:
This work is devoted to Al-Farabi as a scientist and a person, about his philosophical and mathematical works and his main approach to life and science as a classification of sciences (enumeration of sciences), and here it should be emphasized that Al-Farabi combined theory and practice into a single, he considered a scientist is not only a creator of scientific ideas, but also must be a person of virtue in society. Its main ideological platform was philosophy and logic. And, as they say in Arabic الفلسفففففففففف أم العلوم) i.e. philosophy is the mother of sciences). He followed the great Greek philosophers Aristotle (the first teacher) and Plato. And it is no coincidence that Al-Farabi became known as the "second teacher", and this is due to the fact that he deeply assimilated Greek philosophical knowledge, perfectly commented on it and corrected it when needed.

Abstract:
The literature on art and mathematics has focused largely on how geometric forms have influenced artists and on the use of computer visualization in mathematics. The authors consider a fundamental but undiscussed connection between mathematics and art: the role of drawing in mathematical research, both as a channel for creativity and intuition and as a language for communicating with other scientists. The authors argue that drawing, as a shared way of knowing, allows communication between mathematicians, artists and the wider public. They describe a collaboration based on drawing and “inverse vision” in which the differing logics of the artist and the mathematician are treated on equal terms.

Abstract:
This year, the 1150th anniversary of the great scientist Abu Nasir al-Farabi is widely celebrated. In this regard, it is necessary to especially note the merits of the outstanding researcher of the history and pedagogy of Muslim East science, Professor Audanbek Kubessov, who restored the true image of the great scientist as a thinker-mathematician, naturalist and teacher. His special contribution to science as a scientist is directly related to the study of the research works of the great scientist Abu Nasir al-Farabi. A. Kubesov researched the rich scientific heritage of al-Farabi and published more than two hundred scientific, popular and science and other works, translations from the Arabic language of the great scientist. Our current duty is to use and promote the rich heritage of our ancestor al-Farabi in teaching and educating the youth.

Abstract:
accompanying the view that music training leads to improved mathematical performance is the view that that there is an overlap between the kinds of skills needed for music and mathematics. We examined the popular conception that mathematicians have better music abilities than nonmathematicians. We administered a self-report questionnaire via the internet to assess musicality (music perception and music memory) and musicianship (music performance and music creation). Respondents were doctoral-level members of the American Mathematical Association or the Modern Language Association (i.e., literature and language scholars). The mathematics group did not exhibit higher levels of either musicality or musicianship. Among those reporting high music-performance ability (facility in playing an instrument and/or sight-reading ability), mathematicians did not report significantly greater musicality than did the literature/language scholars. These findings do not lend support to the hypothesis that mathematicians are more musical than people with nonquantitative backgrounds.

Abstract:
Ibn al-Haytham (965-1039) is so far known merely as a mathematician and scientist. It is understand-able because most of his available works at this time are on mathematics and science. As a result, researches on his philosophical, psychological, and theological thought are still lacking. This paper discusses Ibn al-Haytham’s philosophy of happiness, using historical research method by collecting and analyzing his works linguistically, particularly his Thamarat al-H{ikmah. The results reveal that Ibn al-Haytham, as well as Muslim philosophers of his time, accepted the concept of happiness from Greek philosophers, such as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. However, he incorporated religio-metaphysical dimensions to his concept of happiness. This finding shows that Ibn al-Haytham is not only a mathematician and scientist, but also a philosopher like al-F?r?b?, Ibn Miskawayh, and al-Ghaz?l?.

Abstract:
The author’s father, Luciano Emmer, was an Italian filmmaker who made feature movies and documentaries on art from the 1930s through 2008, one year before his death. Although the author’s interest in films inspired him to write many books and articles on cinema, he knew he would be a mathematician from a young age. After graduating in 1970 and fortuitously working on minimal surfaces—soap bubbles—he had the idea of making a film. It was the start of a film series on art and mathematics, produced by his father and Italian state television. This article tells of the author’s professional life as a mathematician and a filmmaker.

Abstract<title> SUMMARY </title>The Pompei excavations have given us a good number of bronze compasses from the Roman period. Today these are conserved in the National Archaeological Museum of Naples. The paucity of findings of this instrument, apart from these found in the area around Vesuvius, should not mislead us; in the Roman world the compass was well known and diffused in various types according to the needs of different applications. They were used by mathematicians, architects, surveyors, ceramicists and sculptors. The particular archaeological context from which these derive, they illustrate a clear connection between precision instruments and the historical circumstances of Pompei in the first century A.D.: the eruption of 79 A.D. caught the city be surprise just as it was being rebuilt after the severe earthquake damage of 62 A.D.

Abstract:
The study examines the role of music in the lives and work of 20th century mathematicians within the framework of understanding the contribution of affect to mathematical thinking. The current study focuses on understanding affect and mathematical identity in the contexts of the personal, familial, communal and artistic domains, with a particular focus on musical communities. The study draws on published and archival documents and uses a multiple case study approach in analyzing six mathematicians. The study applies the constant comparative method to identify common themes across cases. The study finds that the ways the subjects are involved in music is personal, familial, communal and social, connecting them to communities of other mathematicians. The results further show that the subjects connect their involvement in music with their mathematical practices through 1) characterizing the mathematician as an artist and mathematics as an art, in particular the art of music; 2) prioritizing aesthetic criteria in their practices of mathematics; and 3) comparing themselves and other mathematicians to musicians. The results show that there is a close connection between subjects’ mathematical and musical identities. I identify eight affective elements that mathematicians display in their work in mathematics, and propose an organization of these affective elements around a view of mathematics as an art, with a particular focus on the art of music. This organization of affective elements related to mathematical thinking around the view of mathematics as an art has implications for the teaching and learning of mathematics.

Abstract:
Though Greek mathematics would have considered the notion of “irrational numbers” to be inherently contradictory, in the sixteenth century this concept found advocates on musical grounds well before it appeared in the theory of equations. Michael Stifel, the leading German mathematician of the century, first used the term “irrational numbers” in the context of his discussion of music, but then drew back from the infinity of digits implicit in this concept. Girolamo Cardano, the famous physician and mathematician, brought this concept forward in his musical writings and later used it in his treatment of algebra. Nicola Vicentino’s interest in reviving ancient Greek quarter-tones in enharmonic music led him to advocate “irrational proportions.” Each of their involvements with practical music and composition related closely to their mathematical views. Distrust of the irrational, both musical and mathematical, also color controversies about the expressive dissonances used in early opera, such as Giovanni Maria Artusi’s critique of Claudio Monteverdi.

Abstract:
Mozart’s musical dice game is one example of how musicians and other artists have incorporated aleatoric elements into their work. Jazz improvisation means every performance is different. Cage left space for the environment to make its own music, but Xenakis took a mathematician’s understanding of randomness and created avant-garde compositions that use the orchestra in new ways. Generative techniques use random numbers to provide new music and other kinds of art on demand. Blocked creativity can be freed by deliberate injections of spontaneity.

Abstract:
In Europe, the first millennium life and music were tightly controlled by religion. Instruments were limited, with major differences between folk music for the masses, the aristocracy, and the church. Much early music was just a single line sung in unison. Progressions to several lines, chords, and the complexity of polyphony developed in parallel with written works and printing of religious and secular music. This liberating feature stimulated a wide range of new types of composition. By around 1600, there was an Italian explosion into opera and a major demand for secular music. Mathematicians devised a scheme of equal temperament tuning, which replaced the earlier ‘natural’ musical scales and this enabled keyboard instruments to play in any key. Low-cost printed music was widely available. Despite the volume of compositions, a relatively small fraction has survived as performance music in the present day and the reasons for this are mentioned.

Abstract:
Music has long been a subject of analysis for mathematicians and has led to interesting questions in music theory and other fields. For the most part, computer scientists have looked into applying artificial intelligence to music and finding algorithms and data structures to solve various musical problems. These problems tend to be solvable in polynomial time using dynamic programming and have various applications. This chapter takes an additional step in this direction, asking what sorts of problems in music cannot be efficiently computed. Specifically, it asks how various constraints affect the computational complexity of arranging music originally written for one set of instruments for a single instrument instead. It then applies these results to other domains, including musical choreography (such as ice skating and ballet) as well as to creating levels for rhythm games (such as Rock Band). It proves that all of the problems are NP-complete.

Few aspects of the Hellenistic world have captivated the modern imagination so much as the Museum and Library of Ptolemaic Alexandria, a dedicated institution of learning and research, populated by librarians, poets, and scholars, and munificently endowed by an enlightened Ptolemaic state. The 3rd and 2nd centuries bc saw spectacular developments in the fields of mathematics, geography, the natural sciences, humanistic scholarship, and poetry. The most impressive figure associated with the Museum was the mathematician, astronomer, chronographer, literary critic, and poet Eratosthenes of Cyrene (c.276–194 bc). ‘Eratosthenes and the system of the world’ outlines the work of Eratosthenes; his contemporary, Archimedes of Syracuse (c.287–212 bc); and the philosophical ‘schools’ of Hellenistic Athens.

Abstract:
In the 1950s and 1960s, many composers, influenced by Arnold Schoenberg and Anton Webern, embraced serial compositional techniques. Tonal music became atonal and composers, such as Pierre Boulez from France and the German composer, Karlheinz Stockhausen, championed this new compositional approach. This chapter defines serialism and how composers applied it to works for percussion instruments. Music examples include Stockhausen’s solo work, Zyklus, with its totally original notational system, and a setting of an E. E. Cummings poem, Circles, by the Italian composer Luciano Berio. American composer Charles Wuorinen’s use of Milton Babbitt’s “time point” system in both his solo work Janissary Music and his forty-five-minute Percussion Symphony is presented, as is the work of Argentine composer Alberto Ginastera, who contributed to the literature one of the twentieth century’s largest percussion works, Cantata para América Mágica, for dramatic soprano and fifty-three percussion instruments. A discussion of percussion solo and ensemble works by the Greek composer, architect, and mathematician Iannis Xenakis completes the chapter.

Abstract:
This article discusses the current state of neurointerface technologies, not limited to deep electrode approaches. There are new heuristic ideas for creating a fast and broadband channel from the brain to artificial intelligence. One of the ideas is not to decipher the natural codes of nerve cells, but to create conditions for the development of a new language for communication between the human brain and artificial intelligence tools. Theoretically, this is possible if the brain "feels" that by changing the activity of nerve cells that communicate with the computer, it is possible to "achieve" the necessary actions for the body in the external environment, for example, to take a cup of coffee or turn on your favorite music. At the same time, an artificial neural network that analyzes the flow of nerve impulses must also be directed at the brain, trying to guess the body's needs at the moment with a minimum number of movements. The most important obstacle to further progress is the problem of biocompatibility, which has not yet been resolved. This is even more important than the number of electrodes and the power of the processors on the chip. When you insert a foreign object into your brain, it tries to isolate itself from it. This is a multidisciplinary topic not only for doctors and psychophysiologists, but also for engineers, programmers, mathematicians. Of course, the problem is complex and it will be possible to overcome it only with joint efforts.
