This is an attempt to illustrate the glorious history of logical foundations and to discuss the uncertain future.

These are notes on Zhang's work and subsequent developments produced in preparation for 5 hours of talks for a general mathematical audience given in Cambridge, Edinburgh and Auckland over the last year. Being for colloquium-style talks,…

This Festschrift is dedicated to Peter Thiemann on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday, celebrating his significant contributions to the field of programming languages. Over the span of more than three decades, Peter has worked on a wide…

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…

This is an extended version of summary of the talk at the International Conference on Group Theory in honor of Victor Mazurov on the occasion of his 80th birthday. The concise version of this report can be found in the talks and…

I gave a rambling talk about gravity and its many mysteries at Chen-Ning Yang's 85th Birthday Celebration held in November 2007. I don't have any answers.

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,…

More than a paper, this is just a little divertissement about coauthoring, the Hirsch h-index, and bibliometric evaluation in general. Without pretending to yield any general conclusions, what I found rummaging through the physics…

A Letter to the Editor shortly summing up ten or so years of research into the h-index.

The following paragraphs will describe the origins of John Rainwater, the impact of his work, the motivations for various parts of it and the prospects for his future.

The essay is devoted to the personality of the prominent theorist D.V. Volkov and his pioneer works in quantum field theory and elementary particle physics.

In this reminiscence I discuss the influence of Henry Eyring and John Barker upon my life and work. Others, especially my family, have been of even greater personal influence. However, these two great and grand men were of tremendous…
