在数学的浩瀚星空中,有一颗璀璨的星辰,以其无与伦比的简洁与深邃,被誉为“上帝最喜爱的公式”。本文将带你踏上一场探索之旅,揭开这一数学奇迹的神秘面纱。
1 五大常数
在数学中有这样五个常数:
- 0: 一切的起点与归宿,数学的虚空与全有。
- 1: 统一与存在的象征,数学运算的基石。
- π: 圆周率,自然界无处不在的比例,连接直线与曲线的桥梁。
- e: 自然对数的底,增长与变化的自然法则。
- i: 虚数单位,超越实数范畴,开启复数世界的钥匙。
2 欧拉恒等式
而有这样一个公式,将数学中几个这几个看似不相关的常数——自然对数底 e、圆周率 π、虚数单位 i、以及整数 1 和 0,以一种令人难以置信的简洁方式联系起来:$$e^{i\pi}+1=0$$ 这便是欧拉恒等式,它以一种几乎魔法般的方式,将数学中最基本的常数编织在一起,揭示了宇宙秩序的内在和谐。这样简短的公式蕴含了深刻的意义,展示了数学结构的精妙和谐。
3 证明
文章当然不会在这里介绍到这里就结束了,好奇的朋友肯定会问为什么。其实答案很简单,也很有意思,核心就是——泰勒公式。
考虑泰勒公式,有
- \(e^x = 1 + x + \frac{x^2}{2!} + \frac{x^3}{3!} + \cdots = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{x^n}{n!}\)
- \(\sin x = x - \frac{x^3}{3!} + \frac{x^5}{5!} - \cdots =\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{{(-1)}^nx^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!}\)
- \(\cos x = 1 - \frac{x^2}{2!} + \frac{x^4}{4!} - \cdots = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{{(-1)^{n}}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}\)
仔细观察,有没有感觉,如果不考虑每一项符号,那么似乎有 \(e^x = \sin x + \cos x\)。
事实上,只要让虚数单位 i 参与其中,就能让等式成立:
$$e^{ix} = \cos x + i \sin x$$ 而这个公式,其实就是大名鼎鼎的欧拉公式(之一)!
这里本质就是因为 \(i^2=-1\),你们可以把上面的泰勒公式代进去验证一下。
至此,我们证明了欧拉公式 \(e^{ix} = \cos x + i \sin x\),证明欧拉恒等式 \(e^{i\pi}+1=0\) 的最后一步,就交给你们自己了。
4 结语
欧拉恒等式,这串看似简单的字符,实则是数学与现实世界深刻联系的缩影。它不仅是一扇窗口,让我们窥见数学的美丽与复杂,更是一把钥匙,解锁了理解宇宙秩序的新途径。让我们带着这份对知识的敬畏与渴望,继续在数学的海洋中航行,探索更多未知的奇迹。

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
Some genuinely superb content on this web site, thanks for contribution. "For today and its blessings, I owe the world an attitude of gratitude." by Clarence E. Hodges.
very nice post, i certainly love this web site, carry on it
Hi, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, fantastic blog!
Would you be enthusiastic about exchanging hyperlinks?
of course like your website however you have to take a look at the spelling on several of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling issues and I in finding it very troublesome to tell the reality however I will certainly come again again.
Wonderful website. Lots of useful info here. I¦m sending it to several friends ans also sharing in delicious. And certainly, thank you in your sweat!
What i don't realize is actually how you are no longer actually a lot more neatly-liked than you might be now. You are so intelligent. You know thus significantly with regards to this topic, produced me in my opinion consider it from a lot of numerous angles. Its like men and women are not interested except it is something to do with Lady gaga! Your personal stuffs great. At all times maintain it up!
