Ordered vector spaces and cones made their debut in mathematics at the beginning of the twentieth century. They were developed in parallel (but from a different perspective) with functional analysis and operator theory. Before the 1950s, ordered vector spaces appeared in the literature in a fragmented way. Their systematic study began around the world after 1950 mainly through the efforts of the Russian, Japanese, German, and Dutch schools. Since cones are being employed to solve optimization problems, the theory of ordered vector spaces is an indispensable tool for solving a variety of applied problems appearing in several diverse areas, such as engineering, econometrics, and the social sciences. For this reason this theory plays a prominent role not only in functional analysis but also in a wide range of applications. This is a book about a modern perspective on cones and ordered vector spaces. It includes material that has not been presented earlier in a monograph or a textbook. With many exercises of varying degrees of difficulty, the book is suitable for graduate courses. Most of the new topics currently discussed in the book have their origins in problems from economics and finance. Therefore, the book will be valuable to any researcher and graduate student who works in mathematics, engineering, economics, finance, and any other field that uses optimization techniques.

This book represents a breakthrough in number theory, by showing the inner, hidden structure of numbers, such as two types of dual characteristics; the surprising inner structure of prime number reciprocals; hidden multiplication and division tables; the many different ways to "construct" a prime number reciprocal; palindromes; perfect balances of evens and odds; plus and minus differences; a predictable and perfect 12/24-based prime number structure; inner secrets hiding in the Fibonacci series and the Pascal Triangle; ratios related to the square roots of numbers; the special roles of the numbers 1, 2 and 3, as well as 3, 6 and 9; the amazing number 7; the fundamental roles of 81 and 19; the mediating roles of 2 and 5, etc. A bonus chapter has been added about the numbers operating in our solar system. One question will baffle any reader: how is it possible that so many phenomena are happening all at the same time? One question cannot be escaped; Is there an inherent intelligent logic hiding in the world of numbers?
