This is an intrusion in the life and the mathematics of Norbert A'Campo, intended to be a tribute to him and an acknowledgement of his impact on those who know him and his work. The final version of this paper appears in the book ``Essays…
We give an account of the theory of $E_0$-semigroups. We first focus on Arveson's contributions to the field and related results. Then we present the recent development of type II and type III $E_0$-semigroups. We also include a short note…
This collection presents a selected set of unsolved problems in semigroup theory, a fundamental branch of modern algebra. The publication is dedicated to the 110th anniversary of the birth of E. S. Lyapin, one of the founders of the field…

This article is a reflection on the mathematical legacy of Professor Petr Simon.
These brief remarks have been prepared in connection with a conference in honor of my thesis advisor, Richard Rochberg.
This article represents a personal tribute to Richard Askey together with a new look at some of his favorite integrals, including the Cauchy beta integral. The article also provides some new multidimensional extensions of Cauchy's beta…
I published an interview of Leo Breiman in Statistical Science [Olshen (2001)], and also the solution to a problem concerning almost sure convergence of binary tree-structured estimators in regression [Olshen (2007)]. The former summarized…
Leo Breiman was a highly creative, influential researcher with a down-to-earth personal style and an insistence on working on important real world problems and producing useful solutions. This paper is a short review of Breiman's extensive…
This paper is a historical and mathematical review of the book, "The q-theory of Finite Semigroups" by John Rhodes and Benjamin Steinberg.
This is an English translation of six articles, originally written in Ukrainian, by the semigroup theorist Anton Kazimirovich Sushkevich (1889-1961). The articles date between 1935 and 1939, and were all written in Kharkiv. A preface is…
This paper has several purposes. We present through a critical review the results from already published papers on the constructive semigroup theory, and contribute to its further development by giving solutions to open problems. We also…
This survey aims to give an overview of several substantial developments of the last 50 years in the structure theory of regular semigroups and to shed light on their impact on other parts of semigroup theory.
Homage is paid to E. Majorana by dedicating our recent work in his memory.
This short paper focuses on Schr\"oder's contribute towards a structural view of group theory.
In this paper I shall try to sketch some typical aspects of Erich Lehmann's contributions to statistics through his research, his teaching, his service to the profession and his personality.

This is a review of the main physical ideas and examples of applicability in astrophysics and pure physics of a semiclassical theory of dense matter proposed by Pavle Savic and Radivoje Kasanin in the early sixties. A hypothesis, advanced…
As a contribution requested by the editors of a Memorial Volume for Peter G.O. Freund (1936-2018), we recall the lively particle theory group at the Enrico Fermi Institute of the University of Chicago in the late sixties, of which Peter was…
This contribution highlights some concepts and aspects of Petri nets that are frequently neglected, but that the authors consider important or interesting, or that Carl Adam Petri emphasized.
