This study had suggested the direction and implications of mathematics education for the gifted student by looking into domestic research trends in relation with mathematics education for the talented children from 2000 to 2010. 168 theses were analyzed by researching theses about mathematics education for the talented children and the total 10 kinds of special journals that are registered or to be registered at National Research Foundation of Korea in order to find a research trend about mathematics education for the talented children. As a result of analyzing theses of each year, the number of theses on mathematics education for the talented children has been increasing largely since2004 and it is steadily being conducted until now. As a result of analyzing theses for each research theme, frequency was shown in order of development research about educational course program for mathematics education for the talented children and research on characteristics of the talented children. For analysis result of research target, research targeting elementary school students has taken great importance. For the aspect of research methods, research about development of program and research tool was used in theses and qualitative research method was mainly used in journals and therefore a direction of mathematics education for the talented children was discussed according to this.

It summarized and analyzed how the definitions of prism, which is the main mathematics education contents of the upper grades of elementary school, have changed from the teaching period to the 2015 revised curriculum. To this end, the definition method was divided into three methods, and how each method was used in each curriculum was examined. Through this, it was confirmed that the definitions of prism were quite different for each curriculum period. In addition, the implications for the definition of each prism were compressed and presented. It will be an opportunity for the textbook author to think about what is a more meaningful definition method of prism.

We prove the existence of multiple solutions for the fourth order nonlinear elliptic problem with fully nonlinear term. Our method is based on the critical point theory; the variation of linking method and category theory.

The Cahn-Hilliard equation is modeled to describe the dynamics of phase separation in glass and polymer systems. A priori error estimates for the Cahn-Hilliard equation have been studied by the authors. In order to control accuracy of approximate solutions, a posteriori error estimation of the Cahn-Hilliard equation is obtained by discontinuous Galerkin method.

In this paper we present a method of conic section approximation by hexic Bézier curves. The hexic Bézier approximants are G³ Hermite interpolations of conic sections. We show that there exists at least one hexic Bézier approximant for each weight of the conic section The hexic Bézier approximant depends one parameter and it can be obtained by solving a quartic polynomial, which is solvable algebraically. We present the explicit upper bound of the Hausdorff distance between the conic section and the hexic Bézier approximant. We also prove that our approximation method has the maximal order of approximation. The numerical examples for conic section approximation by hexic Bézier curves are given and illustrate our assertions.

In this paper we present an approximation method of quadric surface using quartic spline. Our method is based on the approximation of quadratic rational B$\acute{e}$zier patch using quartic B$\acute{e}$zier patch. We show that our approximation method yields $G^1$ (tangent plane) continuous quartic spline surface. We illustrate our results by the approximation of helicoid-like surface.

We consider the semilinear biharmonic equation with Dirichlet boundary condition. We give a theorem that there exist at least three nontrivial solutions for the semilinear biharmonic boundary value problem. We show this result by using the critical point theory, the finite dimensional reduction method and the shape of the graph of the corresponding functional on the finite reduction subspace.

The purpose of this thesis is, through analysing the characteristics of the definitions in Korean school mathematics textbooks, to explore the levels of them. Definitions use din academic mathematics are rigorous. But they should be transformed into various types, which are presented in school mathematics textbooks, with didactical purposes. In this thesis we investigated such types of transformation. With the result of this investigation we tried to identify the levels of the definitions in school mathematics textbooks. We tried to construct, with consideration about methods of definition, frame for analysing the types of the definitions in school mathematics. Methods of definition are classified as connotative method, denotative method, and synonymous method. Especially we identified that connotative method contains logical definition, genetic definition, relational definition, operational definition, and axiomatic definition. With these analyses we made a frame for investigating the characteristics of the definitions in school mathematics textbooks. With this frame we identified concrete types of transformations of methods of definition. We tried to analyse this result with van Hieles' theory about let·els of geometry learning and the mathematical language levels described by Freudenthal, and identify the levels of definitions in school mathematics. We showed the levels of definitions in the geometry area of the Korean school mathematics.

The purpose of this study is to lay the groundwork for effectively supporting mathematics learning for multi-cultural students by enhancing understanding of the cultural background regarding mathematics. In order to attain these purposes, this study compared to learning contents, deployment of contents, teaching method of the Korean and Vietnamese elementary mathematics textbooks. According to analysis, Vietnamese textbooks emphasize mathematical rigor and logic over Korean textbooks, and it integrate learning contents from various areas according to mathematical relevance. But Vietnamese textbooks do not present the connection between mathematical content, such as the combination, symmetry, and coverage of shapes. While Korean textbooks use teaching method that students find and define the concept of shapes themselves, Vietnamese textbooks present concepts of shapes and let students to learn about them. From this result, this study presented suggestions for supporting mathematics learning for multi-cultural students.

In this paper, using the fixed point method, we investigate the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the system of quintic functional equation $f(x_1+x_2,y)+f(x_1-x_2,y)=2f(x_1,y)+2f(x_2,y)\;f(x,2_{y1}+y_2)+f(x,2_{y1}-y_2)=f(x,y_1-2_{y2})+f(x,y_1+y_2)\;-f(x,y_1-y_2)+15f(x,y_1)+6f(x,y_2)$ in non-Archimedean 2-Banach spaces.
