http://olympiads.win.tue.nl/imo/books.html
A great list of problem-solving resources and classic books from
various branches of mathematics, strongly recommended for all
students with a passion for mathematics and especially interesting
for those preparing for competitions. You may find some of the
recommended books in our library.
http://www.artofproblemsolving.com
Very interesting for the students preparing for math competitions;
check out the resources.
http://math.furman.edu/~mwoodard/mquot.html
"The Mathematical Quotations Server" from Furman University.
Contains hundreds of more or less famous quotes about mathematics
by mathematicians and not only.
http://www.ams.org/outreach/undergrad.html
American Mathematical Society's site for undergraduate mathematics
majors. Contains general information about contests, summer
programs, graduate schools and more.
http://www.ams.org/programs/students/undergrad/emp-reu
American Mathematical Society's guide to REU's (research experience
for undergraduates - summer programs in mathematics).
Unfortunately, among the many excellent programs from the list,
very few accept applications from students that are not US citizens
or permanent residents. However, the few that do accept
applications from non US citizens or permanent residents are
usually great opportunities for those interested in doing research
in mathematics (and they are generally very well paid).
http://www-history.mcs.st-andrews.ac.uk/Indexes/HistoryTopics.html
Contains many links and articles about the history of
mathematics
http://www-history.mcs.st-andrews.ac.uk/BiogIndex.html
Contains many biographies of mathematicians
http://gams.nist.gov/
A guide to available mathematical software
http://archives.math.utk.edu/undergraduates.html
Math Archives: contains a lot of interesting information and links
for mathematics majors (e.g. summer programs, competitions, careers
in mathematics, best graduate programs)
http://www.ams.org/mathscinet
The MathSciNet reviews: the most well-known source of mathematical
reviews (books, articles, journals) on the web. A must for anyone
considering a career in mathematics
http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu
The Mathematics Genealogy Project has the high ambition of
compiling information about all the mathematicians in the world.
You can find here most of the people that have a doctor's degree in
mathematics, the name of the university offering the degree, the
title of their dissertation, their advisor, and can follow the
"tree of advisors" until very famous names like Gauss or Euler.
