Discussion of ``The William Kruskal Legacy: 1919--2005'' by Stephen E. Fienberg, Stephen M. Stigler and Judith M. Tanur [arXiv:0710.5063]

Here we present in a single essay a combination and completion of the several aspects of the problem of randomness of individual objects which of necessity occur scattered in our texbook "An Introduction to Kolmogorov Complexity and Its…

A recollection of special moments spent with Yakov Borisovich Zeldovich and with the scientists of Soviet Union and abroad.

In the Euclidean setting, the well-known Alexandrov theorem states that convex functions are twice differentiable almost everywhere. In this note, we extend this theorem to rank-one convex functions. Our approach is novel in that it draws…

This short note is dedicated to the memory of the distinguish logician V. Yankov (Jankov).

The article describes the biography and manifold contributions to research in mathematics of Mikhail Aleksandrovich Shubin.

This is historical-mathematical and historical notes on Moscow mathematics 1914-1936. Nikolay Luzin was a central figure of that time. Pavel Alexandroff, Nina Bari, Alexandr Khinchin, Andrey Kolmogorov, Mikhail Lavrentiev, Lazar Lyusternik,…

Being asked to write about Asan D. Taimanov, I had a little problem. I knew Taimanov. I liked and respected him, and so I wanted to write something. But I didn't know him well. I didn't live in the Novosibirsk Akademgorodok where he lived…

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…

Georgy Theodosiyovych Voronoi (1868-1908) is famous for his seminal contributions to number theory,perhaps mostly those involving quadratic forms and Voronoi tessellations. He was born and grew up in the town of Zhuravka in the Ukraine, at…

This text is written in remembrance of Vladimir (Volodia) Sidorenko, honoring his scientific work, his kindness, and the warm and humorous spirit he brought into the community.

Brief recollections by the author of how he interacted with Feynman and was influenced by him.

This article contains reminiscences of the collaborative work that Richard Arnowitt and I did together which stretched over many years and encompasses several areas of particle theory. The article is an extended version of my talk at the…

As additivity is a characteristic property of the classical information measure, Shannon entropy, pseudo-additivity is a characteristic property of Tsallis entropy. Renyi generalized Shannon entropy by means of Kolmogorov-Nagumo averages,…

Professor Richard H. Dalitz passed away on January 13, 2006. He was almost 81 years old and his outstanding contributions are intimately connected to some of the major breakthroughs of the 20th century in particle and nuclear physics. These…
