Knot Theory and Quantitative Literacy
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing mathematical knot theory and how it can be used to illustrate quantitative literacy. A mathematical researcher noticed that the equations derived in the complex area of knot investigation were closely aligned with many of the standard equations of quantum physics. Further investigation reveals applicability of knot theory to the action of replicating DNA molecules, but the initial realization of knot theory's equations' similarities with other disciplines was possible only under quantitative literacy, in which the individual is able to draw conclusions in one area using information from another. It normally is explained within the framework of being able to apply arithmetic lessons to daily life, such as determining an appropriate restaurant tip. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
