Examples of discrete -- continuous in analysis (English)
0 references
[For the entire collection see Zbl 0758.00020.] This is an interesting mathematical essay, discussing many examples of continuous and discrete items arising in analysis, and pointing out some surprising connections between them. The Cantor set \(\{0,1\}^ \mathbb{N}\) and Sierpiński's gasket are related to the Pascal's triangle of binomial coefficients and to \(p\)-adic numbers. The same triangle leads to a discrete wave and a difference equation of parabolic type. The author emphasizes the strong relations between fractals, \(p\)-adic numbers and nonstandard analysis.
