The use of the computer is also fundamental in research mathematics.
THE TWENTIETH CENTURY (20th Century)
Floor 1Mature continues to grow at an exponential rate.
It was created more especially in the 20th century than in all previous centuries put together. 25,500 professional mathematicians appear in the International Yearbook. The fields and varieties of mathematics are so rich that it is impossible to summarize them.
The main developments occurred in set theory, symbolic logic, group theory, game theory, topology.
The application of Riemann's ideas on curved geometric space led Einstein to relativity theory.
The computer has also opened new research routes, so much so that thecomputer science it can be considered, properly, as one of the new branches of modern mathematics.
The theory of games is an example of mathematicization of real life.
Direct contact through set theory is extremely representative.
