摘　　要：惠施是春秋战国时期诸子百家之一,提出了著名的"合同异"思想理论。为了支撑和论证"合同异"理论,惠施对自然现象和客观事物进行了深入研究,提出了"历物"十事、"尺棰"论、"镞矢"论等命题。这些命题蕴含了丰富的无穷、极限、运动、连续等数学思想。Huishi was one of the Hundred Schools of Thought in the Spring and Autumn Warring States period,who came up with the ideology of integrated the same and the difference. To support this theory,Huishi made an intensive study on the nature and the fact. Hence,he put forward Ten Paradoxical Propositions and the thesis of foot stick,flying arrow,containing abundant mathematical concepts,such as the infinity,the limit,the thought of moving and continuity.
