相关论文: Some remarks on the work of Lawrence Ein
This paper is devoted to Poincar\'e's work in probability. Though the subject does not represent a large part of the mathematician's achievements, it provides significant insight into the evolution of Poincar\'e's thought on several…
A Thesis about Euler discussing the possibilities and limits of his method of work in Mathematics.
Times magazine selected Albert Einstein, the German born Jewish Scientist as the person of the 20th century. Undoubtedly, 20th century was the age of science and Einstein's contributions in unraveling mysteries of nature was unparalleled.…
The article presents the main milestones of the science and technology biography of Ivan Edward Sutherland. The influence of the family and the school on the development of its research competencies is shown, and little-known biographical…
These notes are based on a lecture given by S. L. Woronowicz at the Institute of Mathematics, Polish Academy of Sciences.
As a 30th anniversary tribute, I discuss the present and possible future impact of the physics and the physicists of BFKL.
I intend to make a scientific contribution of my subjective experience as a single unit of self-described ``artist'' leveraging artificial intelligence as an assistive visual creation tool, in the hopes that it may provide some inspiration…
I first met Louis Nirenberg in person in 1972 when I became a Courant Instructor. He was already a celebrated mathematician and a suave sophisticated New Yorker, even though he was born in Hamilton, Canada and grew up in Montreal. In this…
A brief introduction is given to the methods and spirit of effective lagrangians. The emphasis is on a summary of the overall picture, using a simple model as the vehicle to motivate and illustrate the main points. Powercounting is…
Remarks at the Irving Kaplansky Memorial about a collaboration during the early period of the renewal of contacts between mathematicians and theoretical physicists.
One of the great pleasures of working with Imre Leader is to experience his infectious delight on encountering a compelling combinatorial problem. This collection of open problems in combinatorics has been put together by a subset of his…
The Ising model is one of the standard models in statistical physics. Since 1969 more than 12000 publications appeared using this model. In 1996 Ernst Ising celebrated his 96th birthday. Some biographical notes and milestones of the…
A sketch of some of the fundamental notions related to the nature of knowledge is offered, with special focus on the role of mathematics and my own opinions. No single idea exposed here is entirely original; indeed, this topic has been…
This is a brief response to a recent posting by Gross.
We discuss the legacy of Alan Turing and his impact on computability and analysis.
This is an extension and background to a talk I gave on 9 October 2013 to the Brown Graduate Student Seminar, called `A friendly intro to sieves with a look towards recent progress on the twin primes conjecture.' During the talk, I mention…
This is brief and hopefully friendly, with basic notions, a few different perspectives, and references with more information in various directions.
These are reminiscences of my interactions with Julian Schwinger from 1968 through 1981 and beyond.
The year 2005 marks the hundredth anniversary of the pioneering contribution of Einstein's to modern physics in 1905. The discussion of Einstein's five groundbreaking fundamental papers, which change our picture of the universe and ideas…
I am most honoured to have the privilege to present the Foreword to this fascinating and wonderfully varied collection of contributions, concerning the nature of computation and of its deep connection with the operation of those basic laws,…
