Mathematica and finite geometry (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gordon, N. Mathematica and finite geometry. Presented at International Mathematica Symposium

We describe the use of Mathematica in the investigation of some aspects of finite geometry, in particular we look at an example of finding a single polynomial function corresponding to a set of polynomial functions, and an example of finding the PGL(...

Gordon, N. (1994). Finite Geometry and Computer Algebra, with Applications. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/405456

The interaction between geometry and algebra is a diverse and fruitful area to explore. Of particular interest is the area of groups and geometry. In this work we will examine various aspects of this interplay, in particular looking at geometric cano... Read More about Finite Geometry and Computer Algebra, with Applications.

Let V denote a 5-dimensional vector space over a field, and let (bij) denote the 10 independent components of a bivectorb?Λ2Vrelative to a choice of product basis {eiΛej: 1 ≤i<j≤ 5} forΛ2V. It is well known thatb(≠ 0) is decomposable (pure, simple) i...

Mathematica in the teaching of mathematics for computer science students in H.E.
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gordon, N. Mathematica in the teaching of mathematics for computer science students in H.E. Presented at 8th International Mathematica Symposium, Avignon

This paper considers the use of Mathematica in the teaching of mathematics to Computer Science students in Higher Education (H.E.). This is based on experiences in the English H.E. system, and includes examples of the kinds of illustrations and appro...

E-commerce And E-business: A new paradigm or old business in new clothes?
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Brayshaw, M., & Gordon, N. (2006, July). E-commerce And E-business: A new paradigm or old business in new clothes?. Presented at IADIS International Conference e-Society, Dublin, Ireland

This paper aims to answer the question implicit in the title, namely is e-commerce and e-business a new paradigm or old business in new clothes? We consider whether this topic is truly a new discipline worthy of study and understanding in its own rig... Read More about E-commerce And E-business: A new paradigm or old business in new clothes?.
