This site contains brief histories of mathematical topics, famous curves, and links to other Web sites.
- The Mathematical atlas:
a gateway to modern mathematics
This is a collection of short articles designed to provide an introduction to the areas of modern
mathematics and pointers to further information, as well as answers to some common (or not!)
questions. The material is arranged in a hierarchy of disciplines, each with its own index page.
- Mathematical Snippets
Contains descriptions of six mathematical concepts: the Pythagorean Theorem, Archimedes'
Tombstone, the Mobius Strip, the Koch Snowflake Curve, Plateau's Problem, and Counting to
Infinity. Each snippet contains a very brief history and an explanation of the concept.
Illustrations are used to convey the physical meaning and consequences of each concept.

- New York Journal of Mathematics
The _New York Journal of Mathematics_ (_NYJM_), based at the State University of New York,
Albany, is the first electronic general journal of mathematics. This online journal is refereed by
mathematicians at top North American universities and provides high quality articles (1994-present)
covering topics in matrix and linear algebra, geometry, and other general math. Users can read the
articles in a variety of formats (.pdf, .ps, .txt, .gif), and view the _NYJM_ with full graphics or through
the "no frills" option, ideal for readers with older browsers. A search engine, links to mirror sites and
to authors (when available), and submission instructions are also available.
