The integration of the history and philosophy of statistics was initiated at least by Hacking (1975) and advanced by Hacking (1990), Mayo (1996), and Zabell (2005), but it has not received sustained follow-up. Yet such integration is more…
We start by summarising very briefly the various prior attempts (during the last one and half a decade), some of which were made as independent research centres and others as visiting centres with extensive visiting programs for luminaries…
We give an overview of several of the mathematical works of Gilles Lachaud and provide a historical context. This is interspersed with some personal anecdotes highlighting many facets of his personality.
This is a survey of Berezin's work focused on three topics: representation theory, general concept of quantization, and supermathematics.
We compare several approaches to the history of mathematics recently proposed by Blasjo, Fraser--Schroter, Fried, and others. We argue that tools from both mathematics and history are essential for a meaningful history of the discipline. In…
This article is about life and work of Otto Toeplitz, who was influenced by the ideas of Felix Klein and David Hilbert.
This article concerns the life and work of Lucjan Emil B\"ottcher (1872-1937), a Polish mathematician. Besides biographical and bibliographical information, it contains a survey of his mathematical achievements in the theory of iteration…
Bibliometric studies are a rare undertaking in the field of English language teaching, especially at a journal level. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of TEFLIN Journal, this study exhibits a bibliometric portrait of its publication,…
Despite the increasing number of women graduating in mathematics, a systemic gender imbalance persists and is signified by a pronounced gender gap in the distribution of active researchers and professors. Especially at the level of…
This paper describes some strategies used in a `transition' course. Such courses help undergraduate mathematics majors move from learning procedures to learning to function as critical mathematicians in order to understand and work with…
We survey techniques to compute the action of the Hecke operators on the cohomology of arithmetic groups. These techniques can be seen as generalizations in different directions of the classical modular symbol algorithm, due to Manin and…
Ian Macdonald's works changed our perspective on so many parts of algebraic combinatorics and formal power series. This talk will display some selected works of the art of Ian Macdonald, representative of different periods of his oeuvre,…
The aim of this paper is to honor Ivo G. Rosenberg by describing some of his most influential results and their impact in logic, discrete mathematics, algebra, and computer science.
We provide an historical overview of how advances in technology influenced high school and university mathematical competitions in the United States and at the International Mathematical Olympiad. While students are not allowed the usage of…
In 1926 Albert Einstein gave a clear explanation of the physical processes involved in the meander formation and evolution in open channels (Einstein, 1926). Although this work is far from being recognized as one of his greatest…
We present the results of a large-scale computational analysis of mathematical papers from the ArXiv repository, demonstrating a comprehensive system that not only detects mathematical errors but provides complete referee reports with…
After Furstenberg had provided a first glimpse of remarkable rigidity phenomena associated with the joint action of several commuting automorphisms (or endomorphisms) of a compact abelian group, further key examples motivated the…
We study continuity and H\"older continuity of $t\mapsto P_tf$, where $P_t$ is a generalized Mehler semigroup in $C_b(X)$, the space of the continuous and bounded functions from a Banach space $X$ to $R$, and $f\in C_b(X)$. The generators…
These are reminiscences of my interactions with Julian Schwinger from 1968 through 1981 and beyond.
[Taken from the "README" in the book] My goal with this book is to provide some kind of bridge for mathematics between the high-school-level and college-level for physics students. From my perspective, our job as physicists is to observe…
