Abstract

Mathematics is a science. However, Mathematics has
exceptional features that other sciences can hardly attain; for instance
the beauty in cognitive development, in Mathematics applied in other
fields such as Physics, Computer Science, Music, Fine Art, Literature,
etc… Mathematical beauty manifests itself in many forms and is divided
into many different categories. Mathematical beauty can be divided into
inner and outer beauty, or it can be categorized by fields or divided into the
beauty in method, in problem development, and in mathematical formulas.
The charactersitics of mathematical are repetition, harmony and Nonmonotonicity.                                                                                            Beauty is a vague concept. It is not easy to define, measure,or estimate.
