Career opportunities are often a matter of chance, but also of willingness to cross interdisciplinary boundaries.

A didactical survey of the foundations of Algorithmic Information Theory. These notes are short on motivation, history and background but introduce some of the main techniques and concepts of the field. The "manuscript" has been evolving…

This paper has been withdrawn by the author(s) in the light of several other works available and due to a misunderstanding in the authorships.

In this paper, the notion of generic transversality and its characterization are given. The characterization is also a further improvement of the basic transversality result and its strengthening which was given by John Mather.

This is a write up on some sections of convex geometry, functional analysis, optimization, and nonstandard models that attract the author.

Socio-economic inequalities are manifested in different aspects of our social life. We discuss various aspects, beginning with the evolutionary and historical origins, and discussing the major issues from the social and economic point of…

In this article I reflect upon the problems connected with writing women in mathematics into Wikipedia. I discuss some of the current projects and efforts aimed at increasing the visibility of women in mathematics on Wikipedia. I present…

We discuss three rainbow theories created by Descartes, Newton and Young. The note is written primary for school students.

I will share with the reader what I have learned from Richard Stanley and the ways in which he has contributed to research in combinatorics conducted by me and my collaborators.

Some personal reflections on the past and future of "econophysics", to appear in Europhysics News

This text is an introduction to the study of NIP (or dependent) theories. It is meant to serve two purposes. The first is to present various aspects of NIP theories and give the reader the background material needed to understand almost any…

In these lecture notes I describe some of the main theoretical ideas emerged to explain the aging dynamics. This is meant to be a very short introduction to aging dynamics and no previous knowledge is assumed. I will go through simple…

This is a survey of some problems in geometric group theory which I find interesting. The problems are from different areas of group theory. Each section is devoted to problems in one area. It contains an introduction where I give some…

The theory of bi-Hamiltonian systems has its roots in what is commonly referred to as the "Lenard recursion formula". The story about the discovery of the formula told by Andrew Lenard is the subject of this article.

Author impact evaluation and prediction play a key role in determining rewards, funding, and promotion. In this paper, we first introduce the background of author impact evaluation and prediction. Then, we review recent developments of…

The purpose of this informal article is to introduce the reader to some of the objects and methods of the theory of p-adic representations. My hope is that students and mathematicians who are new to the subject will find it useful as a…

The paper is an introduction to intuitionistic mathematics.

A Thesis about Euler discussing the possibilities and limits of his method of work in Mathematics.

Research at the interface between cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and the science of complex, dynamical systems, is piecing together an understanding of the creative process, including how it works, how it can be fostered, and the…

This paper presents an offering of some of the myriad connections between Combinatorics and Probability, directed in particular toward combinatorialists. The choice of material was dictated by the author's own interests, tastes and…
