: The study of mathematical concepts for their own sake, independent of any application outside of mathematics. : Arithmetic and number theory.
Analysis is the rigorous study of limits, continuity, and infinite processes.

Looking at entire systems of mathematical objects, such as Groups, Rings, and Fields. This branch studies the underlying symmetry of mathematics. map of mathematics pdf
In Walliman’s map, the expansive world of pure mathematics is primarily organized around four foundational pillars:
Understanding its immense educational value, Walliman has made a version available for free, high-resolution download on his Flickr account. This is an excellent resource for teachers and students. You can find it here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/95869671@N08/32264483720 .
Mathematics is a vast, sprawling universe—one that can feel deeply intimidating to newcomers and even to seasoned practitioners. While the math we learn in school provides a solid foundation, it reveals only a small corner of a magnificent landscape. : The study of mathematical concepts for their
Often called "rubber-sheet geometry." It looks at properties of spaces that do not change when stretched, twisted, or crumpled—only when torn or glued. To a topologist, a coffee mug and a donut are the exact same shape because both have exactly one hole. Analysis & Calculus (Change and Quantity)
The MSC was first introduced in 1970 by the American Mathematical Society (AMS) and has undergone several revisions since then. The current version, MSC 2020, is the most widely used classification system in mathematics.
The map is not a rigid, dry diagram; it's a vibrant, subway-like illustration that shows the rich connections between different branches of mathematics. Instead of viewing areas like pure and applied math as isolated silos, the map reveals a dense network of interconnections, turning the abstract subject into a tangible, navigable landscape. : Often hosted on platforms like the Internet
At the heart of the map lies the foundation. This includes , Set Theory , and Number Theory . It deals with the fundamental nature of numbers (primes, integers) and the logical rules that govern mathematical truth. 2. Algebra
The study of relationships between the sides and angles of triangles.
The final pillar of pure math is Analysis. This is the rigorous study of change and motion, encompassing calculus, differential equations, and real analysis. It provides the tools necessary to understand functions and limits, forming the backbone of modern physics. Applied Mathematics: Tools for Understanding the Universe
