Klappentext zu „Mathematics for Social Sciences and Arts “
This book addresses interconnections between contemporary advances in mathematics, especially algebra, with applications in the social sciences and the arts. It promotes the idea that knowledge cannot remain in disciplinary silos, rather, it belongs to all people, and is dedicated to associative relationships in a variety of mathematics applications, from sociology to linguistics, including anthropology, semiotics, education, and cognitive science. Contributions illuminate some of the ways in which algebra is developed, learned, understood, communicated, and applied in the social sciences and the humanities.The content in this book has its origins in a conference, Mathematics for Social Sciences and Arts-Algebraic Modelling, virtually hosted by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Nis, Serbia, from the 24th to the 26th of May, 2021. This conference brought together scholars from various disciplines and geographic regions and focused on thejuxtaposition of algebra and social science applications. The conference organizers, higher education institutes from four different continents, invited leading scientists in social sciences and algebra, to contribute to this volume.
The first part of this book addresses algebraic and mathematical thinking, specifically learning and practicing mathematics from a cognitive science perspective, as well as illustrative applications to distinctly human concerns, like education and semiotics. The second part focuses on algebraic semigroups and some of their generalizations. This book and the conference that engendered it provide an example of a fruitful collaboration, in which the skills and deep knowledge of algebraic structures, modeling, social sciences and arts brought in by the authors from different countries and continents merge in harmonious ways. These expositions are a rich resource and are of interest both to mathematicians and non-mathematicians.

Autoren-Porträt
Mahouton Norbert Hounkonnou is a Full Professor at the University of Abomey-Calavi, Benin. His works deal with noncommutative and nonlinear mathematics, mathematical physics and complexity. He was a member of UNESCO Scientific Council for International Basic Sciences Programme and member of the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) working group on Harnessing Science, Engineering and Medicine to Address Africa's Challenges. He is also a member of several academies, including the Academy of Science of South Africa, Hassan II Academy of Science and Technology, Morocco, African Academy of Sciences, The World Academy of Sciences. He is the co- chair of the Network of African, European and Mediterranean Academies for Science Education, President of the Network of African Science Academies and former President of Benin National Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters. He is member of the IAP Science Education Global Council, and representative for Africa of the International Mathematical Union (IMU) Commission for Developing Countries (CDC). He was awarded several international prestigious Prizes, the last being the American Institute of Physics 2023 Tate Medal for his efforts to build and maintain an enduring transnational African mathematical physics research and education community.Dr. Dragana Martinovic is Professor Emerita at Faculty of Education, University of Windsor. She is a Fellow of the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences and a Co-Director of the Fields Centre for Mathematics Education. She is a founding and current Co-Editor of the Springer book series, Mathematics Education in the Digital Era. Dragana serves on the Editorial Boards for Brill'sStudies in Mathematics in the Arts and Humanities book series, Springer's Mathematics in Mind book series, and journals such as Participatory Educational Research (PER) and Semiotica. Dragana is also the Chair of the GeoGebra Institute of Canada/Institut de GeoGebra du Canada (GIC-IGC).

Dragana has co-chaired various national and international conferences. In her research, Dragana explores knowledge for teaching mathematics, ways in which technology can assist in teaching and learning of mathematics, and epistemologies of Science, Mathematics, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in relation to teacher and K-12 education. Dragana's research is funded by SSHRC, KNAER, the Fields Institute, and various Canadian government organizations. She has published edited books and books of conference proceedings and multiple book chapters, refereed journal papers, and research and technical reports.
Melanija Mitrovic is a Full Professor at the University of Nis, Serbia, having received her PhD degree at the same university. She works in the field of classical and constructive algebra. Her innovating work within the theory of constructive binary structures with apartness positions her among the pioneers of constructive mathematics in Serbia. She develops interdisciplinary research investigating applications of algebraic structures to problems in engineering space, social sciences and humanities. She is, also, the Head of the Center of Applied Mathematics of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Nis, CAM- FMEN (since 2019), a member of the Editorial Board of Mathematics in Mind, Springer; a member of the Fields Cognitive Science Network. She holds the status of Permanent Full Professor at the International Chair in Mathematical Physics and Applications (ICMPA-UNESCO Chair), University of Abomey-Calavi, Benin Republic. She has held visiting professor positions at Linköping University and Malardaren University, Sweden; Bar-Ilan University, Israel; TU Wien, Austria; UTAD and University of Minho, Portugal; and Politecnico di Milano, Italy. She is member of the Grant Selection Committee (GSC) of the International Mathematical Union (IMU) Commission for Developing Countries (CDC).
