Abstract

Even though Sanhak has a long history, it has disappeared from the stage of modern mathematics. What happened to Sanhak? This article tries to answer the question. In fact, the authors argue that the oriental perception toward to infinity has played an important role in such situation. The authors claim that actual infinity and virtual infinity have resulted in quite different types of mathematics, respectively.
