INTRODUCTION OF NEGATIVE NUMBERS IN THE GREEK MATHEMATICAL EDUCATION

ABSTRACT

This paper explores the introduction of negative numbers in the Greek Mathematical Education. Especially, we study the translation of the Fourcy's book of Algebra by the Greek mathematician Ch.Vafas(1837). Furthermore, an issue that is discussed is the way by which these numbers got introduced in these two books, and how each of the writers faced them.

In a short flashback are cited the prevailing concepts that influenced the development of these numbers in France of the 19th century. Next, we attempt to find out the divergence that might have the thesis of the two mathematicians, in respect of negative quantities. Also, there is an effort of identification and recognition of the personal Vafas's comments in his textbook, which reflect the Greek Mathematical reality of this period and how the French ideas had an impact on it.

Especially

Well, I think you should find out another phrase, instead of this.
Here do I have from the dictionary. "Especially "is usually used before a noun, preposition or adverb, or before a clause beginning with 'if', 'when', 'as' etc

E.g. He was very much influenced by Picasso, especially when he was young

In a short flashback are cited the prevailing concepts

Is this you mean? In a short flashback are the prevailing concepts cited (Inverted Version)

ooh thank. you are right for the inversion that i need to use. Regarding the ''especially'' word.. maybe I should use specifically, or something instead...

Anyway, thank you for your response!

This paper explores the introduction of negative numbers in the Greek Mathematical Education.

This paper intends to study the introduction of negative numbers by Greek mathematicians.

Furthermore, an issue that is discussed is the way by which these numbers got introduced in these two books,and how each of the writers faced them.

The latter part sounds a bit confusing for me... I wish you rephrase that again.

In a short flashback are cited the prevailing concepts that influenced the development of these numbers in France of the 19th century.

.... In this , the first part is more confusing :(
Try and write shorter and more simple sentences as they have better clarity :)
