Who invented zero? | India and The Divinity of Numbers | Math and the Rise of Civilization
Who invented zero in India? In 628 CE, astronomer-mathematician Brahmagupta wrote his text Brahma Sphuta Siddhanta which contained the first mathematical treatment of zero. He defined zero as the result of subtracting a number from itself, postulated negative numbers and discussed their pr

Brahmagupta's formula and the Quadruple Quad Formula (II) | Rational Geometry Math Foundations 126
The classical Brahmaguptas' formula gives the area for a convex cyclic quadrilateral, in terms of the four side lengths. We want to connect this with the purely 1-dimensional result called the Quadruple Quad Formula. First we review the corresponding relation between Heron's formula and th

Varadaraja Raman - Is God a “Person”?
If 'Does God exist?' is the first question, 'Is God a Person?' should be the second. Only a 'person' has awareness, knowledge, beliefs, intents, goals, relationships. An impersonal force or principle has none of these. If hope counts, God exists and God is a person. But that's absurd: hope

What can we know about God? The easy answer is 'nothing': God is not like anything. Finite humans cannot know an infinite God. But that's not good enough. If there is a God, God must have traits, attributes, characteristics. More deeply, God should have an 'essence', a nature. We must be a
