Personal recollections on theoretical particle physics in the years when the Standard Theory was formed. In the background, the remarkable development of Italian theoretical physics in the second part of the last century, with great…
We present animations based on the aggregated journal-journal citations of Leonardo during the period 1974-2008. Leonardo is mainly cited by journals outside the arts domain for cultural reasons, for example, in neuropsychology and physics.…
Based at a talk given at the Kato Centennial Symposium in Sept. 2017, this article discusses the scientific life and some of the scientific work of T. Kato.
The philosopher Plato is remembered even today by scientists, and his writings are still inspiring the scientific research. In the present short note (intended essentially for public outreach) two examples are briefly illustrated: 1) the…
In this article we explore some aspects of Fourier analysis on fuzzy sets. This work was part of a broader project jointly with Professor Vittorio Cafagna which spanned over a few years between 1998 and 2005. Professor Cafagna passed away…
In the following article a Ph.D. student of V.I.~Arnold gives a personal account on his teacher who unexpectedly passed away earlier this year.
Large Language Models (LLM) are studied. Applications to chatbots and education are considered. A case study on Leonardo's contribution to astronomy is presented. Major problems with accuracy, reproducibility and traceability of answers are…
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…
This article discusses the life and work of Professor Ola Bratteli (1946--2015). Family, fellow students, his advisor, colleagues and coworkers review aspects of his life and his outstanding mathematical accomplishments.
The study of arboreal Galois representations (that is, Galois groups arising from iteration of polynomial and rational functions) originated with work of Odoni in the 1980s. Beginning in the early 2000s it underwent a period of renewed…
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…
Despite growing interest in Learning-by-Teaching (LbT), few studies have explored how this paradigm can be implemented with autonomous, peer-like social robots in real classrooms. Most prior work has relied on scripted or Wizard-of-Oz…
This obituary is devoted to M. I. Polikarpov (28.12.1952 - 18.07.2013), our teacher, our colleague, our friend. We recollect some facts of his biography and stages of his scientific career, and make a brief review of some of his most known…
This article discusses the life and work of Professor Srishti Dhar Chatterji, who passed away on September 28, 2017, in Lausanne, Switzerland, most suddenly and unexpectedly, after a very brief illness. Complete bibliographical information…
Artificial intelligence is poised to transform teaching and coaching practices,yet its optimal role alongside human expertise remains unclear.This study investigates human and AI collaboration in fitness education through a one year…
This paper was written as a tribute to Mario Petrich, a major figure in the history of semigroup theory. Publication is posthumous in view of his recent death.
In this paper we study a generalization of the Fibonacci sequence in which rabbits are mortal and take more that two months to become mature. In particular we give a general recurrence relation for these sequences (improving the work in the…
Homage is paid to E. Majorana by dedicating our recent work in his memory.
In these notes we propose a setting for fuzzy computing in a framework similar to that of well-established theories of computation: boolean, and quantum computing. Our efforts have been directed towards stressing the formal similarities:…
Roger Carter (1934--2022) was a very well known mathematician working in algebra, representation theory and Lie theory. He spent most of his mathematical career in Warwick. Roger was a great communicator of mathematics: the clarity,…
