「和算」をご存じだろうか。聞いたことはあっても、よく知らないという人が大半ではないかと思う。それもそのはず。学校の教科書でもほとんど触れられず、高校の日本史で和算家の代表格、関孝和の名前が出てくる程度だからだ。
和算とは、江戸時代から明治にかけて日本人が独自に研究、発展させた数学だ。そのレベルは極めて高度で当時、世界最高水準にあった。たとえば、関孝和の弟子である建部賢弘は、「円周率π」の計算で41桁まで弾き出すことに成功。これは天才レオンハルト・オイラーが微積分学を用いて同じ公式を発見する15年も前のことだ。
数学というと、我々は西洋から学んだものと思いがちだ。確かに明治維新で「西洋数学」を取り入れたが、それ以前に日本には和算という独自の数学があった。だからこそドイツの数学を輸入する際、いとも簡単に日本語に翻訳できたのだ。また、和算の発展があったから、数学のノーベル賞ともいわれるフィールズ賞を日本人は3人も受賞しているのだ。国別の受賞者数では、米仏ロ英に次ぐ5位で、日本はまさに世界に冠たる数学大国であり、その原点が和算なのだ。
和算は江戸を中心に全国の各藩で盛んに研究された。私の出身地の山形は、江戸に次いで和算が盛んな藩の1つだった。紅花などで大儲けした富裕層がいて文化的なものを尊ぶ風土があり、また冬は雪に閉ざされるため家で数学の問題に打ち込むのによい環境だった。和算には関孝和の関流を筆頭にさまざまな流派があるが、山形では会田安明が「最上(さいじょう)流」をつくり、関流と20年間も優劣を競い合った。http://president.jp/articles/-/16450
そこで今回は、この和算に挑戦してみよう。数ある和算書のなかでも、『算法童子問』(村井中漸著)から「大原の花売り」を紹介したい。書名の通り子ども向けの本だが、案外と難しいので侮れない。
「京都大原の里から、毎日花を売りに来る女がいる。女の家には『桜・桃・椿・柳』の4種類の花があり、そのうち3種類を毎日均等になるように選び、売り歩く。選ぶ順番も同じだという。ある日、『桜・桃・椿』を買った。次に同じ組み合わせの花を購入できるのは何日後になるだろうか?」

どの花を家に置いてくるかを考える!
どの花を家に置いてくるかを考える!
これは「組み合わせ」の問題である。4種類の花から3種類を選ぶ方法は何通りあるかを考えるのだが、「選び出す花」を考えると複雑になるので、逆に「家に置いてくる花」に着目する。「4種類のなかから3種類を選び出す」ことと、「どれか1種類を家に置いてくる」ことは同じ意味だからだ。
これを「余事象」といい、ある事象に対して、そうではない反対の事象を指す。この問題は余事象に注目することがポイントになる。要するに発想の転換だ。
図の通り、花は4種類なので、家に置いてくる花の選び方も4通りだ。したがって4種類のなかから3種類を選び出す方法も同じ4通り。つまり、花の組み合わせは4日で1回りするので、答えは「4日後」ということになる。http://president.jp/articles/-/16450?page=2
和算は、ゼロ除算をやっていないようです:

\section{Introduction}
%\label{sect1}
By a {\bf natural extension} of the fractions
\begin{equation}
\frac{b}{a}
\end{equation}
for any complex numbers $a$ and $b$, we found the simple and beautiful result, for any complex number $b$
\begin{equation}
\frac{b}{0}=0,
\end{equation}
incidentally in \cite{s} by the Tikhonov regularization for the Hadamard product inversions for matrices and we discussed their properties and gave several physical interpretations on the general fractions in \cite{kmsy} for the case of real numbers.
The division by zero has a long and mysterious story over the world (see, for example, Google site with the division by zero) with its physical viewpoints since the document of zero in India on AD 628, however,
Sin-Ei Takahasi (\cite{kmsy}) established a simple and decisive interpretation (1.2) by analyzing the extensions of fractions and by showing the complete characterization for the property (1.2):
\bigskip
{\bf Proposition 1. }{\it Let F be a function from ${\bf C }\times {\bf C }$ to ${\bf C }$ satisfying
$$
F (b, a)F (c, d)= F (bc, ad)
$$
for all
$$
a, b, c, d \in {\bf C }
$$
and
$$
F (b, a) = \frac {b}{a }, \quad a, b \in {\bf C }, a \ne 0.
$$
Then, we obtain, for any $b \in {\bf C } $
$$
F (b, 0) = 0.
$$
}
Note that the complete proof of this proposition is simply given by 2 or 3 lines.
We should define $F(b,0)= b/0 =0$, in general.
\medskip
We thus should consider, for any complex number $b$, as (1.2);
that is, for the mapping
\begin{equation}
W = \frac{1}{z},
\end{equation}
the image of $z=0$ is $W=0$ ({\bf should be defined}). This fact seems to be a curious one in connection with our well-established popular image for the point at infinity on the Riemann sphere. Therefore, the division by zero will give great impact to complex analysis and to our ideas for the space and universe.
However, the division by zero (1.2) is now clear, indeed, for the introduction of (1.2), we have several independent approaches as in:
\medskip
1) by the generalization of the fractions by the Tikhonov regularization and by the Moore-Penrose generalized inverse,
\medskip
2) by the intuitive meaning of the fractions (division) by H. Michiwaki - repeated subtraction method,
\medskip
3) by the unique extension of the fractions by S. Takahasi, as in the above,
\medskip
4) by the extension of the fundamental function $W = 1/z$ from ${\bf C} \setminus \{0\}$ into ${\bf C}$ such that $W =1/z$ is a one to one and onto mapping from $ {\bf C} \setminus \{0\} $ onto ${\bf C} \setminus \{0\}$ and the division by zero $1/0=0$ is a one to one and onto mapping extension of the function $W =1/z $ from ${\bf C}$ onto ${\bf C}$,
\medskip
and
\medskip
5) by considering the values of functions with the mean values of functions.
\medskip
Furthermore, in (\cite{msy}) we gave the results in order to show the reality of the division by zero in our world:
\medskip
\medskip
A) a field structure containing the division by zero --- the Yamada field ${\bf Y}$,
\medskip
B) by the gradient of the $y$ axis on the $(x,y)$ plane --- $\tan \frac{\pi}{2} =0$,
\medskip
C) by the reflection $W =1/\overline{z}$ of $W= z$ with respect to the unit circle with center at the origin on the complex $z$ plane --- the reflection point of zero is zero, not the point at infinity.
\medskip
and
\medskip
D) by considering rotation of a right circular cone having some very interesting
phenomenon from some practical and physical problem.
\medskip
In (\cite{mos}), many division by zero results in Euclidean spaces are given and the basic idea at the point at infinity should be changed. In (\cite{ms}), we gave beautiful geometrical interpretations of determinants from the viewpoint of the division by zero. The results show that the division by zero is our basic and elementary mathematics in our world.
\medskip
See J. A. Bergstra, Y. Hirshfeld and J. V. Tucker \cite{bht} for the relationship between fields and the division by zero, and the importance of the division by zero for computer science. It seems that the relationship of the division by zero and field structures are abstract in their paper.
Meanwhile, J. P. Barukcic and I. Barukcic (\cite{bb}) discussed recently the relation between the divisions $0/0$, $1/0$ and special relative theory of Einstein. However, their logic seems to be curious and their results contradict with ours.
Furthermore, T. S. Reis and J.A.D.W. Anderson (\cite{ra,ra2}) extend the system of the real numbers by introducing an ideal number for the division by zero $0/0$.
Meanwhile, we should refer to up-to-date information:
{\it Riemann Hypothesis Addendum - Breakthrough

\medskip
Here, we recall Albert Einstein's words on mathematics:
Blackholes are where God divided by zero.
I don't believe in mathematics.
George Gamow (1904-1968) Russian-born American nuclear physicist and cosmologist remarked that "it is well known to students of high school algebra" that division by zero is not valid; and Einstein admitted it as {\bf the biggest blunder of his life} [1]:
1. Gamow, G., My World Line (Viking, New York). p 44, 1970.
Apparently, the division by zero is a great missing in our mathematics and the result (1.2) is definitely determined as our basic mathematics, as we see from Proposition 1. Note its very general assumptions and many fundamental evidences in our world in (\cite{kmsy,msy,mos}). The results will give great impact on Euclidean spaces, analytic geometry, calculus, differential equations, complex analysis and physical problems.
The mysterious history of the division by zero over one thousand years is a great shame of mathematicians and human race on the world history, like the Ptolemaic system (geocentric theory). The division by zero will become a typical symbol of foolish human race with long and unceasing struggles. Future people will realize this fact as a definite common sense.
We should check and fill our mathematics, globally and beautifully, from the viewpoint of the division by zero. Our mathematics will be more perfect and beautiful, and will give great impact to our basic ideas on the universe.
For our ideas on the division by zero, see the survey style announcements.
\section{Basic Materials of Mathematics}
(1): First, we should declare that the divison by zero is possible in the natural and uniquley determined sense and its importance.
(2): In the elementary school, we should introduce the concept of division by the idea of repeated subtraction method by H. Michiwaki whoes method is applied in computer algorithmu and in old days for calculation of division. This method will give a simple and clear method for calculation of division and students will be happy to apply this simple method at the first stage. At this time, they will be able to understand that the division by zero is clear and trivial as $a/0=0$ for any $a$. Note that Michiwaki knows how to apply his method to the complex number field.
(3): For the introduction of the elemetary function $y= 1/x$, we should give the definition of the function at the origin $x=0$ as $y = 0$ by the division by zero idea and we should apply this definition for the occasions of its appearences, step by step, following the curriculum and the results of the division by zero.
(4): For the idea of the Euclidean space (plane), we should introduce, at the first stage, the concept of steleographic projection and the concept of the point at infinity -
one point compactification. Then, we will be able to see the whole Euclidean plane, however, by the division by zero, the point at infinity is represented by zero. We can teach the very important fact with many geometric and analytic geometry methods. These topics will give great pleasant feelings to many students.
Interesting topics are: parallel lines, what is a line? - a line contains the origin as an isolated
point for the case that the native line does not through the origin. All the lines pass the origin, our space is not the Eulcildean space and is not Aristoteles for the strong discontinuity at the point at infinity (at the origin). - Here note that an orthogonal coordinates should be fixed first for our all arguments.
(5): The inversion of the origin with respect to a circle with center the origin is the origin itself, not the point at infinity - the very classical result is wrong. We can also prove this elementary result by many elementary ways.
(6): We should change the concept of gradients; on the usual orthogonal coordinates $(x,y)$,
the gradient of the $y$ axis is zero; this is given and proved by the fundamental result
$\tan (\pi/2) =0$. The result is trivial in the definition of the Yamada field. This result is derived also from the {\bf division by zero calculus}:
\medskip
For any formal Laurent expansion around $z=a$,
\begin{equation}
f(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} C_n (z - a)^n,
\end{equation}
we obtain the identity, by the division by zero
\begin{equation}
f(a) = C_0.
\end{equation}
\medskip
This fundamental result leads to the important new definition:
From the viewpoint of the division by zero, when there exists the limit, at $ x$
\begin{equation}
f^\prime(x) = \lim_{h\to 0} \frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h} =\infty
\end{equation}
or
\begin{equation}
f^\prime(x) = -\infty,
\end{equation}
both cases, we can write them as follows:
\begin{equation}
f^\prime(x) = 0.
\end{equation}
\medskip
For the elementary ordinary differential equation
\begin{equation}
y^\prime = \frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{1}{x}, \quad x > 0,
\end{equation}
how will be the case at the point $x = 0$? From its general solution, with a general constant $C$
\begin{equation}
y = \log x + C,
\end{equation}
we see that, by the division by zero,
\begin{equation}
y^\prime (0)= \left[ \frac{1}{x}\right]_{x=0} = 0,
\end{equation}
that will mean that the division by zero (1.2) is very natural.
In addition, note that the function $y = \log x$ has infinite order derivatives and all the values are zero at the origin, in the sense of the division by zero.
However, for the derivative of the function $y = \log x$, we have to fix the sense at the origin, clearly, because the function is not differentiable, but it has a singularity at the origin. For $x >0$, there is no problem for (2.6) and (2.7). At $x = 0$, we see that we can not consider the limit in the sense (2.3). However, for $x >0$ we have (2.6) and
\begin{equation}
\lim_{x \to +0} \left(\log x \right)^\prime = +\infty.
\end{equation}
In the usual sense, the limit is $+\infty$, but in the present case, in the sense of the division by zero, we have:
\begin{equation}
\left[ \left(\log x \right)^\prime \right]_{x=0}= 0
\end{equation}
and we will be able to understand its sense graphycally.
By the new interpretation for the derivative, we can arrange many formulas for derivatives, by the division by zero. We can modify many formulas and statements in calculus and we can apply our concept to the differential equation theory and the universe in connetion with derivatives.
(7): We shall introduce the typical division by zero calculus.
For the integral
\begin{equation}
\int x(x^{2}+1)^{a}dx=\frac{(x^{2}+1)^{a+1}}{2(a+1)}\quad(a\ne-1),
\end{equation}
we obtain, by the division by zero,
\begin{equation}
\int x(x^{2}+1)^{-1}dx=\frac{\log(x^{2}+1)}{2}.
\end{equation}
We will consider the fundamental ordinary differential equations
\begin{equation}
x^{\prime \prime}(t) =g -kx^{\prime}(t)
\end{equation}
with the initial conditions
\begin{equation}
x(0) = -h, x^{\prime}(0) =0.
\end{equation}
Then we have the solution
\begin{equation}
x(t) = \frac{g}{k}t + \frac{g(e^{-kt}- 1)}{k^2} - h.
\end{equation}
Then, for $k=0$, we obtain, immediately, by the division by zero
\begin{equation}
x(t) = \frac{1}{2}g t^2 -h.
\end{equation}
In those examples, we were able to give valuable functions for denominator zero cases. The division by zero calculus may be applied to many cases as a new fundamental calculus over l'Hôpital's rule.
(8): When we apply the division by zero to functions, we can consider, in general, many ways. For example,
for the function $z/(z-1)$, when we insert $z=1$ in numerator and denominator, we have
\begin{equation}
\left[\frac{z}{z-1}\right]_{z = 1} = \frac{1}{0} =0.
\end{equation}
However,
from the identity --
the Laurent expansion around $z=1$,
\begin{equation}
\frac{z}{z-1} = \frac{1}{z-1} + 1,
\end{equation}
we have
\begin{equation}
\left[\frac{z}{z-1}\right]_{z = 1} = 1.
\end{equation}
For analytic functions we can give uniquely determined values at isolated singular points by the values by means of the Laurent expansions as the division by zero calculus, however, the values by means of the Laurent expansions are not always reasonable. We will need to consider many interpretations for reasonable values. In many formulas in mathematics and physics, however, we can see that the division by zero calculus is reasonably valid. See \cite{kmsy,msy}.
\section{Albert Einstein's biggest blunder}
The division by zero is directly related to the Einstein's theory and various
physical problems
containing the division by zero. Now we should check the theory and the problems by the concept of the RIGHT and DEFINITE division by zero. Now is the best time since 100 years from Albert Einstein. It seems that the background knowledge is timely fruitful.
Note that the Big Bang also may be related to the division by zero like the blackholes.
\section{Computer systems}
The above Professors listed are wishing the contributions in order to avoid the division by zero trouble in computers. Now, we should arrange new computer systems in order not to meet the division by zero trouble in computer systems.
By the division by zero calculus, we will be able to overcome troubles in Maple for specialization problems.
\section{General ideas on the universe}
The division by zero may be related to religion, philosophy and the ideas on the universe, and it will creat a new world. Look the new world introduced.
\bigskip
We are standing on a new generation and in front of the new world, as in the discovery of the Americas. Should we push the research and education on the division by zero?
