Originally published: General investigations of curved surfaces of 1827 and 1825. [Princeton]: Princeton University Library, 1902.

In 1827 Gauss presented to the Royal Society of G�ttingen his important paperon the theory of surfaces, which seventy-three years afterward the eminent Frenchgeometer, who has done more than any one else to propagate these principles, characterizes as one of Gauss's chief titles to fame, and as still the most finishedand useful introduction to the study of infinitesimal geometry._ This memoir maybe called: General Investigations of Curved Surfaces, or the Paper of 1827, todistinguish it from the original draft written out in 1825, but not publisheduntil 1900. A list of the editions and translations of the Paper of 1827 follows.There are three editions in Latin, two translations into French, and two intoGerman. The paper was originally published in Latin under the title: Ia. Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvasauctore Carolo Friderico Gauss.

This influential work defines the concept of surface curvature and presents the important theorem stating that the "Gauss curvature" is invariant under arbitrary isometric deformation of a curved surface. 1902 edition.

"In truth, it is not knowledge, but learning, not possessing, but production, not being there, but travelling there, which provides the greatest pleasure. When I have completely understood something, then I turn away and move on into the dark; indeed, so curious is the insatiable man, that when he has completed one house, rather than living in it peacefully, he starts to build another. " Letter from C. F. Gauss to W. Bolyai on Sept. 2, 1808 This textbook adds a book devoted to applied mathematics to the series "Grundwissen Mathematik. " Our goals, like those of the other books in the series, are to explain connections and common viewpoints between various mathematical areas, to emphasize the motivation for studying certain prob lem areas, and to present the historical development of our subject. Our aim in this book is to discuss some of the central problems which arise in applications of mathematics, to develop constructive methods for the numerical solution of these problems, and to study the associated questions of accuracy. In doing so, we also present some theoretical results needed for our development, especially when they involve material which is beyond the scope of the usual beginning courses in calculus and linear algebra. This book is based on lectures given over many years at the Universities of Freiburg, Munich, Berlin and Augsburg.

Perception is an EBook that describes the universal superstructure that pervades our universe. Whether if you watch TV, drive your car or do calculus at work. This structure grasps everywhere. It’s so universal, it governs even meta-entities like thoughts or written information. Now, let’s keep this simple: You probably noticed on one point in your life that there is an constant stream of change. Nothing seems to be certain. Everything is moving, old things go and new things come. Yet there is also a solid underlying structure: Some things always stay the same. The laws of physics are the same here as on the moon. The flow of water follows the same laws as electricity does. This “sameness” is eventually called “Self-Similarity”. It is a term used in higher mathematics. When you follow that trail you will end up at very sophisticated concepts on differential manifold, fractals or tensor products. This is the material that is kind of “hard” to access for regular people who are not active in the field. Perception is reality: That saying is still as true as it always was. What do I get from this? First of all: There is a load of knowledge that can be transferred towards everyday life and made use of. Not only in building machines, coding software or social interaction. Also in money making, business running or creating success. Knowledge on the Superstructure can enhance your life on a massive scale IF you know how to apply it. Unfortunately, that is the hard part that requires you to have either years of training, studying or learning. Yet, once you “get” the basics you will notice that it opens up a lot of shortcuts to this world. Cheat codes for the Universe!?! Yes. Perception is basically a “real-world transfer” of super-heavy math & physics. It is keptvery easy and does not require an advanced degree for understanding. I have put strong focus on keeping things simple, straight forward and fast to comprehend. ThereforePerception is made up of 70% illustrations and only 30% text. As I teached these insights in the past, I noticed that people have it way easier with a visual depiction to orientate on. And this is what I will provide you with on every landmark of the road. GIVING YOU THE EDGE Perception is reality: It describes in detail the unchanging and underlying superstructure of our universe. It will explain you how multiple layers of reality interact with you in your daily life. Some of them visible, some of them invisible and some of them very deeply in your unconsciousness. Past cultures have identified these interactions as a connection to either higher consciousness, gods or pagan entities. Yet, it’s only a very simple but elegant processthat operates behind our eyes. With Perception I will take you on a ride and show you what it’s all about. Once you “click” on some basics insights, you will be able to: Predict future events with extremely high accuracy via the principle of fractal progression Gain a competitive advantage in business, professional and academic life by the method of aligning and mapping self-similar layers Use the concept of asymmetric information within observational topology to have the upper hand in any given negotiation, discussion or relationship. Especially this one is so good; having knowledge on it should be close to being illegal. Perception is reality: Use this knowledge to your advantage. Perception pulls you into the application of advanced concepts from Information Theory, Physics and Mathematics. Even the top-notch professionals in that fields takes it years to fully comprehend, grasp and make use of these insights. Perception is a massively compressed view into high-level knowledge, simplified and eased to an enormous extend. It will save you years of studying and provide you with unique shortcuts and massive advantages: Transfer knowledge easily between different fields by means of Occult Symmetry. Use the principle of Macroscopic Superposition to create events the way you want them. If you ever wondered how the Law of Attraction works in detail- this is it. Tap into your perceptive feedback loop by means of Dimensional Synchronizationand gain instant access to the holographic database: This will allow you to request & receive any information, anytime, anywhere at zero cost. You are probably doing this already on some level- but with the exact background knowledge this will boost your efficiency by 600-700%. Perception is the Theory of Everything’s scientific base. It includes in full: the scientific blueprint all of its related, highly detailed illustrations a clean-cut to-the-point analysis for easy real-world transfer It will allow you to employ advanced scientific concepts: Make use of the Schrodinger Equation to determine which situational outcome you desire. (This will take some practice and dedication, yet its definitely worth it. The Push/Pull Emotions of your Holographic Representation play a big role in this as well as your feedback loop to the external world. Nevertheless, after some practice you can reliably choose which currently hidden alternative shall manifest in the real world. There are thousands of people who successfully employ this e.g. in gambling, business or private life.) Employ the strategy of habitual centralization to generate invisible gravity on meta entities like luck, health or financial success. (How this works, is actually pretty much common sense – yet it’s very interesting to know the mechanics behind it.) Use Dimensional Synchronization to tap into infinite knowledge. (Everyone of us uses this on some level in everyday life- yet you can boost up efficiency 5-6x times if you know how to do it right. Knowledge on this is extremely handy when it comes to learning, comprehending or planning.)

"A mind-bending jaunt ... that makes clear in fascinating detail how math is more than a sum of its parts" (Publishers Weekly) “Let no one ignorant of geometry enter here,” Plato warned would-be philosophers. Mathematician Karl Sigmund agrees. In The Waltz of Reason, he shows how mathematics and philosophy together have shaped our understanding of space, chance, logic, cooperation, voting, and the social contract. Sigmund shows how game theory is integral to moral philosophy, how statistics shaped the meaning of reason, and how the search for a logical basis for math leads to deep questions about the nature of truth itself. But this is no dry tome: Sigmund’s wit and humor shine as brightly as his erudition. The Waltz of Reason is an engrossing history of ideas as vibrant as a ballroom full of dancers, one that empowers as it entertains, following the complex and occasionally dizzying steps of the thinkers who have molded our thought and founded our world.

Did you ever wonder what this world is about? There is a multitude of theories on the universe out there. Yet, only one definitive answer exists. Asking for higher guidance, searching for a higher being that guides one’s life has always been a natural part of any human. The believe in God sets us apart from animals and the rest of creation. Yet, what is God about? Does he really exist? Does believing in him make even sense? What about evolution and when there is a God who is the right one to choose from? Isn’t a rational approach to this world more effective? And why does he not present himself? All these questions have been answered piece by piece already centuries ago, yet a unified picture and perspective always lacked. Many people have actual problems with the concept of God and are either not able to understand or even reject the truth behind it. Here come’s NATVRA into play. What it is: NATVRA is a full-fledged EBook that is based upon the Theory of Everything’s scientific findings. More than an EBook, it is also an Illustrated Presentation to the Theory of Everything. It connects via easy visual cues the scientific background that pervades our visual universe with the theological concept of Christianity. This is what NATVRA will provide you with: A full scale proof of God, his traits, how he acts and what his character is Your relation with God and why he loves you What happens after death and why Heaven and Hell are real The comprehensible and common-sense final theory of the universe It bridges the realms of science and Christianity It will teach you how to attain the Kingdom of God: A place of everlasting peace, rest and beauty. Table of Contents NATVRA™: The Illustrated Presentation to The Theory of Everything THEOLOGY Your Relation with God Why God loves you God’s plan for your life Life after Death: Heaven or Hell SCIENCE Absolute & Relative Separation Meta Structures Concentrations & Distribution Unified Theory of the Universe NATVRA is the scientific bridge towards the age old story of the fall of man and his saving by Jesus Christ. NATVRA unifies all known theories of the universe to explains you not only the symbolic language of the garden of Eden, how it relates to our world, but also how God’s plan of salvation is meant to work in our lives. Being a connector of science and Christianity, NATVRA also covers the following theological topics: Why God loves you Your relationship with God Attaining the Kingdom of God Why God wants you to be with him Unification of Christianity and Science Life after death: The reality of Heaven and Hell Covering Illustrated Presentation Detailed Depictions Clean & Cut to the Point

Secret Knowledge: The Physics of the Law of Attraction Secret Knowledge: What is this? Nike is a Digital Download EBook. It is not only a compilation of arcane occult secrets, it goes beyond the general techniques and describes the underlying scientific core. There are certain concepts in all branches of the occult, namely -Wicca, Sorcery, Hermeticism or Magic- that share the same basis. Eventually, it always relates to the change of an individual’s perception. Nike gives you detailed insights and instructions on occult secret knowledge. By means of bridging towards universal topics like quantum resonance or energetic vibration, Nike makes the connection from the occult towards academic science. Eventually, Nike delivers you the very basics of any occult teaching in a scientific way. The product is split into two parts, part one “Reality Creation” is about how reality gets created, maintained or changed. Here we’re going pretty deep into consciousness itself, your perceptive feedback look and your energetic vibration. Reality Creation lays the foundation that makes you later on understand how part two, Infinity Navigation (closely related to the “the law of attraction”), actually works. We’re going into how intentions operate, how words, thoughts and actions shape your reality and how YOU can influence the outcome of future events solely with your mind. Infinity Navigation is all about a practical insight into the law of attraction, e.g. understanding when to put focus on something, reading the signals of your feedback loop, comprehending when to take action and generally getting in synchronization with your higher self. It will massively support you in achieving your goals and getting what you want. Later on we go deeper into physics and explain the impact of quantum mechanics on the occult: Quantum Entanglement: Inner/Outer-World synchronization effects and their impact on reality, sounds and scents. Learn how to effectively employ the skill of psychokinesis. Wave-Particle Duality: How to make use of perceptive techniques like focus, ignorance, attachment and detachment to change your fractal position. Master this and you will later on be able to gain the ability of telepathy. Manifest through controlled Wave collapse: Choose your desired future by means of perceptive selection. Macroscopic Super-positioning: Comprehend how the invisible hand of group consciousness shapes reality’s larger events. Nike will introduce you to the concept of the Occult Terrain, a simplified version of the Higher Astral Planes. The Occult Terrain is effectively a fine level string field that feeds on mental input: This grand-unified approach towards the occult gives a lot of advantages when it comes to comprehending and applying secret knowledge: A standardized Model to Remote Viewing Self-similarity towards Telepathy Symmetry with Psychokinesis Eased physics of the Law of Attraction (Push/Pull and Sender/Receiver) Simplified access towards Astral Projection Nike covers with Reality Creation and Infinity Navigation the basic fundamentals of occultsecret knowledge. This EBook goes already pretty deep and gives you access to material that had in the past been reserved for high-level Illuminati and ascended masters. Yet, there is even more. If you are interested in the exact and pinpointed scientific mechanics (Uncertainty Relation, Wave Function, Imaginary Unit, Euler’s Identity, etc.) make sure to check out Perception and NATVRA that cover these in full. Table of Contents I. Reality Creation A scientific overview on how reality is created: The basics to the Law of Attraction Wave Particle Duality: Open and closed systems, approximative telepathy Wave Collapse: Certainty and probability on events Occult Space: Standardized model that gives mayor occult concepts a unified base II.
