Distributed Consensus With Limited Communication Data Rate

TL;DR: It is proved that under the protocol designed, for a connected network, average consensus can be achieved with an exponential convergence rate based on merely one bit information exchange between each pair of adjacent agents at each time step.

The behaviour of eigenstates of arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the random wave model for eigenstates does not apply universally in 3 degrees of freedom for arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds, and that there is no strong localization (scarring) onto totally geodesic submanifolds.

A History of Greek Mathematics

D'arcy W. Thompson
- 01 Mar 1922 - 
TL;DR: Heath as mentioned in this paper presents a history of Greek mathematics, from Thales to Euclid, from Aristarchus to Diophantus, with a focus on the historical aspect of science; it is for all lovers of Greek, for mathematics is a true legacy of Greece, and is interwoven through and through with Greek thought and philosophy.

TL;DR: Smith as discussed by the authors presents the most significant passages from the works of the most important contributors to mathematics during the last three or four centuries, with the aim of presenting a very entertaining volume, a surprisingly successful attempt to do what nearly all good judges would have declared to be impossible.
