We review the life and remarkable contributions to Physics of Gregor Wentzel.
A brief remembrance of some aspects of the author's scientific interaction with Stephen Hawking. A contribution to Physics Today's March 14, 2018 web page in which Stephen Hawking is remembered by his colleagues.
This is a survey article concerning applications of Hilbert's metric in the analysis and dynamics of linear and nonlinear mappings on cones. It will appear as a chapter in the "Handbook of Hilbert geometry", ed. G. Besson, A. Papadopoulos…
The original Schrodinger's paper is translated and annotated in honour of the 70-th anniversary of his Uncertainty Relation [published also in: Bulg. Journal of Physics,vol.26,no.5/6 (1999) pp.193-203]. In the annotation it is shown that…

In commemoration of the fifth anniversary since Nino Boccara's departure, this article offers some personal recollections and provides insight into his life and accomplishments. Detailed bibliography of his works is included together with…
In this brief essay we succinctly comment on the historical origin of Hilbert geometry. In particular, we give a summary of the letter in which David Hilbert informs his friend and colleague Felix Klein about his discovery of this geometry.…
A focused modernization of Sophus Lie's brilliant writings about the foundations of geometry that every contemporary geometer should have at least once a look at. Translated, updated, commented.
