This monograph is a collection of articles on the mathematical concepts and knowledge found in ancient and medieval Jaina Literature. The material in the monograph is valuable for a course on History of Mathematics in the Departments of Mathematics and Education in colleges and universities. The articles are aimed at a broader audience interested in the History of Mathematics, serving as a reference book. The monograph contains twelve articles. Three of these articles relate to the development of ideas concerning arithmetic and geometry in the Jaina tradition over extended periods, and the rest of nine articles deal with specific themes that engaged the Jaina scholars in the course of their pursuits. In two of the articles, 9 and 10, the readers will find connections to modern topics like cryptography and logic in statistical thinking. |
