The first Congress on North-South collaboration in Physics research was held in Oujda Morocco, between April 9th and 13th, 2007. The congress was based on talks giving an overview of relevant subjects both from experiments and theory in all…

I recall my "first hour" events following on my meeting in Fall 1968 in the classroom with my academic teacher and thesis mentor Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. multiple Walter Greiner. My comments focus on the creation of the new "strong fields" domain…

From 28 to 30 January 1933 was held at the Institut Henri Poincar\'{e} (Paris) the first International Conference of Nonlinear Oscillations organized at the initiative of the Dutch physicist Balthazar Van der Pol and of the Russian…

The concept of extremely dense matter at supra-nuclear density was first speculated by L. Landau in the beginning of 1930s when neutron was just discovered. A historical review on these issues not only explains the interaction between micro…

Celebrating fifty years of collaboration and friendship with Chris Isham.

Before 1905, Poincar\'e stressed the importance of the method of clocks and their synchronization, but unlike Einstein, magnet and conductor (asymmetries in Lorentz's theory regarding the explanation of Faraday's induction) or chasing a…

This is an expanded version of my talk given at the workshop "Hot Topics: Thin Groups and Super-strong Approximation" (MSRI, Berkeley, February 6-10, 2012).

An inventory is made of the experiments which can measure the transversely polarized quark distributions and fragmentation functions at leading twist. (Contribution to the 10th International Symposium on High Energy Spin Physics, Nagoya,…

Talk given at the First Workshop on Forward Physics and Luminosity Determination at the LHC, Helsinki, Finland, November 2000. 12 pages, 9 figures

For Boris Zilber on his 75th birthday. I trace the roots of my collaboration with Boris Zilber, which combines categoricity theory, finite model theory, algorithmics, and combinatorics.

We briefly recount the long friendship that developed between Ludwig and us (Moshe Flato and I), since we first met at ICM 1966 in Moscow. That friendship extended to his school and family, and persists to this day. Its strong personal…

Henri Poincare's work on mathematical features of the Lorentz transformations was an important precursor to the development of special relativity. In this paper I compare the approaches taken by Poincare and Einstein, aiming to come to an…

The origins of the series of European Cosmic-Ray Symposia are briefly described. The first meeting in the series, on Hadronic Interactions and Extensive Air Showers, held in Lodz, Poland in 1968, was attended by the author: some memories…

An introductory talk at a Meeting on results and prospects of collaboration of Russian research organizations with European organization for nuclear research (CERN), which took place at the Ministry of science and technical policy of Russia…

Scientific research is and was at all times a transnational (global) activity. In this respect, it crosses several borders: national, cultural, and ideological. Even in times when physical borders separated the scientific community,…

An extended text of the talk given at the conference ``2001: A Spacetime Odyssey'', to be published in the Proceedings of the Inaugural Conference of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, 21-25 May…

A discussion of the method of multiscale analysis in the study of localization of random operators based on lectures given at \emph{Random Schr\"odinger operators: methods, results, and perspectives}, \'Etats de la recherche, Universit\'e…

Gunnar Nordstrom constructed the first relativistic theory of gravitation formulated in terms of interactions with a scalar field. It was an important precursor to Einstein's general theory of relativity a couple of years later. He was also…

In 1965, I published a paper, exhibiting a hitherto unknown limit of the Lorentz group, which I christened Carroll group because of its seemingly paradoxical physical contents. Since I saw it as more curious than relevant, I published it in…

In this article we pay tribute to Herbert Dingle for his early call to re-assess special relativity from philosophical and logical perspectives. However, we disagree with Dingle about a number of issues particularly his failure to…
