About

This site was conceived as a collation of personal curiosities and a digital commonplace resource for exploring ideas that demand rigorous and honest contemplation and a slower pace. ⊕ Still Life and Street. M.C. Escher, 1937. Escher in Het Paleis, The Hague. Woodcut 48.7 x 49 cm. Its content is best understood as a modest accumulation of somewhat organised thoughts and provisional understandings by the author.

Who is Artëm Kolmogorov? #

Artëm Kolmogorov is my tongue-in-cheek pseudonym born from a shared inside joke. It’s a nod to the Soviet mathematician A. N. Kolmogorov.

Readership #

The primary intended reader of this site is myself. As such, I write exclusively about subjects that are of interest to me.

Iterative Improvement #

⊕ Illustration of a contraction mapping. From “Introductory Real Analysis” (A.N. Kolmogorov and S.V. Fomin) Articles are living documents; they are never truly “final”. Each entry functions as a log of thoughts, and commit dates are marked against each article.
