Book Description
For the curious reader looking to sharpen their arsenal of mathematical strategies on the Olympiad level, 113 Geometric Inequalities from the AwesomeMath Summer Program is a valuable addition. This problem-solving methodology prompts key ideas in other domains such as calculus or complex numbers as the solutions are usually nonstandard in a geometric sense. Nevertheless, trying your hand at these types of inequalities consolidates your mathematical reasoning while exposing you to a broad range of problems, all teeming with insightful inequality-type solutions.

Book Description
This book contains 107 geometry problems used in the AwesomeMath Year-Round Program. The problems offer additional challenges for those who have progressed through the 106 Geometry Problems from the AwesomeMath Summer Camp publication. The book begins with a theoretical chapter, where the authors review basic facts and familiarize the reader with some more advanced techniques. The authors then proceed to the main part of the work, the problem sections. The problems are a carefully selected and balanced mix which offers a vast variety of flavors and difficulties, ranging from AMC and AIME levels to high-end IMO problems. Out of thousands of Olympiad problems from around the globe the authors chose those which best illustrate the featured techniques and their applications. The problems meet the authors' demanding taste and fully exhibit the enchanting beauty of classical geometry. For every problem the authors provide a detailed solution and strive to pass on the intuition and motivation behind it. Numerous problems have multiple solutions.Directly experiencing Olympiad geometry both as contestants and instructors, the authors are convinced that a neat diagram is essential to efficiently solve a geometry problem. Their diagrams do not contain anything superfluous, yet emphasize the key elements and benefit from a good choice of orientation. Many of the proofs should be legible only from looking at the diagrams.

Book Description
This book would certainly help Olympiad students who wish to prepare for the study of inequalities, a topic now of frequent use at various competitive levels. The inequalities from each section are ordered increasingly by the number of variables: one, two, three, four, and multi-variables. Each problem has at least one complete solution and many problems have multiple solutions, useful in developing the necessary array of mathematical machinery for competitions.

Book Description
This introductory textbook takes a problem-solving approach to number theory, situating each concept within the framework of an example or a problem for solving. Starting with the essentials, the text covers divisibility, unique factorization, modular arithmetic and the Chinese Remainder Theorem, Diophantine equations, binomial coefficients, Fermat and Mersenne primes and other special numbers, and special sequences. Included are sections on mathematical induction and the pigeonhole principle, as well as a discussion of other number systems. By emphasizing examples and applications the authors motivate and engage readers.
