5차방정식과 정이십면체

 

 

간단한 소개

20세기 수학의 궤도를 제시한 힐버트의 역사적인 1900년 국제수학자대회 연설의 초반부에는 다음과 같은 언급이 있음. (Mathematical Problems, Lecture delivered before the International Congress of Mathematicians at Paris in 1900 By Professor David Hilbert)

 

But it often happens also that the same special problem finds application in the most unlike branches of mathematical knowledge. So, for example, the problem of the shortest line plays a chief and historically important part in the foundations of geometry, in the theory of curved lines and surfaces, in mechanics and in the calculus of variations. And how convincingly has F. Klein, in his work on the icosahedron, pictured the significance which attaches to the problem of the regular polyhedra in elementary geometry, in group theory, in the theory of equations and in that of linear differential equations.
