Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Analyzing the annual reports of the Shisei Sanka school, the "Kiou Shu," which include a lot of problems proposed by the pupils, I confirmed that they had tried to maintain their prestige by collecting difficult problems but there had been no remarkable development in their mathematical skill. It means that they enjoyed mathematics as a stereotypical hobby only. The representative mathematicians in pre-modern Japan, Seki Takakazu, Takebe Katahiro, and Takebe Kataakira, revealed their view of mathematics and a lot of mathematical arts in their 20 volumes of the "Taisei Sankei". But it is very difficult to understand their work because they lacked the mathematical language or means to describe their mathematics. I analyzed several volumes of this work in detail to determine this clearly. As for the "Collected Works of Seki Takakazu", which will be published by Iwanami Shoten, I read some of his Chinese writings in Japanese and translated them into modern Japanese.
