https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne%20Cobbe | Anne Philippa Cobbe (7 August 1920 – 15 December 1971) was a mathematician at the University of Oxford. She was an inspirational and supportive pure mathematics tutor at Somerville College which, during her time there, was still a women's college.
Early life
Anne was born in Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire, youngest child of General Alexander Cobbe (member of the Cobbe family) and Winifred Ada Bowen. Her mother was the daughter of Sir Albert Bowen, 1st Baronet, lord of Colworth House, where Anne grew up. She had a sister, Winifred Alice (born 1912) and brother, Alexander William Locke (born 1919). At the age of ten, her father died. Her brother, known as Bill, was killed as an RAF pilot in the Battle of Britain in 1940.
Education and career
She attended Downe House School near Newbury, Berkshire. She started reading mathematics in the Sixth form but sat the history scholarship examinations at the University of Oxford in 1938. The result being that she was told that history was not the right subject for her to study. The following year, 1939, she sat the mathematics entrance exam and was awarded an exhibition for a place at Somerville College, Oxford. (Her head teacher Olive Willis had also studied at Somerville College.)
Anne sat her finals in 1942 and then took up a position in operational research for the Royal Navy. After the war she returned to Oxford and was awarded her MA in 1946.
She undertook research at Lady Margaret Hall under the guidance of J. H. C. Whitehead who knew her as a family friend. Her first paper in homological algebra (Some algebraic properties of crossed modules) was published in 1951 and she earned her DPhil for her thesis Modern Algebraic Theories in 1952.
Cobbe became a lecturer at Lady Margaret Hall and published On the cohomology groups of a finite group in 1955. She returned to Somerville the same year, where she was appointed as a fellow and tutor. She enjoyed carefully looking after the gardens of Somerville College and preferred tutoring algebra there – with tea and biscuits, rather than lecturing. In 1957, she published On Q-kernels with operators, a joint paper with Robert Leroy Taylor.
Later life
Cobbe became gravely ill in 1969, a year after interviewing Caroline Series for her admission to Somerville. She gave up her positions as Fellow and Tutor in April 1971, however in the absence of a replacement she continued to offer support and advice until the time of her death in December. She gifted her house in Walton Street through her will to Somerville, on the condition that philosopher Philippa Foot would be granted life tenure. Jane Bridge, whom she had tutored at Somerville, became her successor as mathematics tutor at Somerville after her death.
In 1972, Somerville College established the Anne Cobbe Memorial Fund with contributions from her friends, colleagues and pupils. The purpose of this fund is to provide opportunities for undergraduates reading mathematics, physics or engineering.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanny%20Hammarstr%C3%B6m | Nanny Matilda Hammarström (March 23, 1870 – December 3, 1953) was a Finland-Swedish teacher and author.
Hammarström was born in Vaasa. She taught mathematics, natural history, and geography at schools in Kokkola (1890–1891), Mariehamn (1895–1900), and Loviisa (1900–1943). She was active in a variety of roles in the community and society in Loviisa; she was a member of the town council from 1919 to 1923, and she became the chair of the town library board in 1930.
Hammarström was known in particular as an author of children's books with nature themes. Her eleven books of stories were published in large print runs. She gained an international foothold with her debut work (The Adventures of Two Ants, 1906); the book was translated into Finnish, Norwegian, German, English, and Russian. This was followed, among other works, by (The Spring Wind's Journey; 1929), a story in which the south wind tells about everything it meets on its journey north. Her books are about the life and interaction of nature and animals, and Hammarström illustrated them herself. In 1979, and (The Hirundo Swallow Couple, 1915) were republished in new editions. The books (Children and Adults I–II, published in 1918 and 1920), are about the author's own family.
Hammarström died in Loviisa, where she is also buried.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurable%20acting%20group | In mathematics, a measurable acting group is a special group that acts on some space in a way that is compatible with structures of measure theory. Measurable acting groups are found in the intersection of measure theory and group theory, two sub-disciplines of mathematics. Measurable acting groups are the basis for the study of invariant measures in abstract settings, most famously the Haar measure, and the study of stationary random measures.
Definition
Let be a measurable group, where denotes the -algebra on and the group law. Let further be a measurable space and let be the product -algebra of the -algebras and .
Let act on with group action
If is a measurable function from to , then it is called a measurable group action. In this case, the group is said to act measurably on .
Example: Measurable groups as measurable acting groups
One special case of measurable acting groups are measurable groups themselves. If , and the group action is the group law, then a measurable group is a group , acting measurably on .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dionisio%20Gallarati | Dionisio Gallarati (May 8, 1923 – May 13, 2019) was an Italian mathematician, who specialised in algebraic geometry. He was a major influence on the development of algebra and geometry at the University of Genova.
Life
Born 8 May 1923 in Savona, Italy, Gallarati joined the University of Pisa in 1941. His studies being interrupted by the war, he received his first degree from Genova.
He started his research career at l'Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica in Rome, where he was taught by Giacomo Albanese, Leonard Roth, Leonida Tonelli, E. G. Togliatti, Beniamino Segre and Francesco Severi.
He took a post at Genova in 1947, where he stayed until he retired in 1987.
Research
Gallarati published 64 papers between 1951 and 1996.
Important amongst his research was the study of surfaces in P3 with multiple isolated singularities. His lower bounds for maximal number of nodes of surfaces of degree n stood for a long time, and exact solutions for large n were still unknown in 2001.
In Grassmannian geometry he extended Segre's bound "for the number of linearly independent complexes containing the curve in the Grassmannian corresponding to the tangent lines of a nondegenerate projective curve." He extended the results to arbitrarily dimensioned varieties' tangent spaces, to higher degree complexes, and to arbitrary curves in Grassmannians corresponding to degenerate scrolls.
Works
Gallarati wrote three books and 64 papers, in algebraic geometry, differential geometry, functional analysis, group theory, and biography. His co-authors include Giulio Aruffo, Mauro C. Beltrametti, Maria Teresa Bonardi, Gabriella Canonero, Ettore Carletti, Enrica Casazza, Mario G. Galli, Aldo Monti Iandelli, Giacomo Bragadin, Giorgio Luigi Olcese, Giulio Passatore, Luigi Robert, Aldo Rollero, Michele Sarà, Giulio Scarsi and Maria Ezia Serpico.
33 of his papers are collected in Dionisio Gallarati: Collected Papers of Dionisio Gallarati Kinston, Ontario, 2000, ed A. V. Geramita.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%A9odore%20Macdonald | Théodore Harney MacDonald (25 November 1933 – 2011) was a Canadian polymath, professor of mathematics and health, and human rights defender.
Background
MacDonald was raised in Montreal, Quebec, as one of six children. His father was Cuthbert Goodridge MacDonald (1897-1967), editor of The Montreal Herald and a poet. Cuthbert's mother was the writer, Elizabeth Roberts MacDonald.
Reports differ as to his early childhood. One account says that his mother left the family when he was ten and that the children were largely raised by the oldest daughter, then aged thirteen. Another says that he ran away from home, repelled by his father, but this seems unlikely because he gave praise for his father in a book preface. All agree that he was largely educated by Jesuits and that his precocious talents led to him finishing school curriculum several years early. All obituaries also report he obtained a Licentiate in Music (L.Mus) by the age of twelve.
After this, he taught music before completing a second degree in mathematics and epidemiology from McGill University at the age of seventeen.
He then worked in the Canadian Wildlife Service and (possibly) served for Canada in the Korean War. One obituary says that he was captured by North Korea but defected to them at the end of the war in 1953, aged twenty, travelling by ship with East German allies and settling there to complete a medical degree. He remained a socialist for the rest of his life. He also had a C. Psychol., possibly an MA or MSc from Columbia University, and PhD, possibly two (institution and discipline unknown, possibly medicine or biology and one source suggests from Glasgow and Delaware).
In 1960, MacDonald participated in organized, nonviolent protest against racial segregation in the US southern states led by Martin Luther King Jr. and was eventually exiled from the US (he may later have studied at Columbia and Santa Clara), probably because he also began visiting Cuba and was known to authorities as a communist.
MacDonald was in Perth, at the University of Western Australia, 1961-1963, and again in the 1970s, working at Monash University and the University of Newcastle, and had a Chair at the relatively young University of the South Pacific in 1972 and 1973 before being banned from entering Fiji on the grounds of 'political activity' in 1973. In all he spent over a decade in Australia, then relocated to London in the early 1980s, eventually settling in Littlehampton, on England's south coast, where he completed several books after retirement.
He was married to Elizabeth Scammell (1936-2016) between 1962 and 1980 and adopted her two daughters, Lynda and Anne, from her previous marriage and was legal parent to her son Ross, but was estranged from him from the mid-1980s. Elizabeth and Theo had two children, a daughter Sara and son Gareth (1968-1988). MacDonald was subsequently married to Chris and had one child, Matthew, with another adopted, nine grandchildren, and one great-grandson by |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarz%20lantern | In mathematics, the Schwarz lantern is a polyhedral approximation to a cylinder, used as a pathological example of the difficulty of defining the area of a smooth (curved) surface as the limit of the areas of polyhedra. It is formed by stacked rings of isosceles triangles, arranged within each ring in the same pattern as an antiprism. The resulting shape can be folded from paper, and is named after mathematician Hermann Schwarz and for its resemblance to a cylindrical paper lantern. It is also known as Schwarz's boot, Schwarz's polyhedron, or the Chinese lantern.
As Schwarz showed, for the surface area of a polyhedron to converge to the surface area of a curved surface, it is not sufficient to simply increase the number of rings and the number of isosceles triangles per ring. Depending on the relation of the number of rings to the number of triangles per ring, the area of the lantern can converge to the area of the cylinder, to a limit arbitrarily larger than the area of the cylinder, or to infinity—in other words, the area can diverge. The Schwarz lantern demonstrates that sampling a curved surface by close-together points and connecting them by small triangles is inadequate to ensure an accurate approximation of area, in contrast to the accurate approximation of arc length by inscribed polygonal chains.
The phenomenon that closely sampled points can lead to inaccurate approximations of area has been called the Schwarz paradox. The Schwarz lantern is an instructive example in calculus and highlights the need for care when choosing a triangulation for applications in computer graphics and the finite element method.
History and motivation
Archimedes approximated the circumference of circles by the lengths of inscribed or circumscribed regular polygons. More generally, the length of any smooth or rectifiable curve can be defined as the supremum of the lengths of polygonal chains inscribed in them. However, for this to work correctly, the vertices of the polygonal chains must lie on the given curve, rather than merely near it. Otherwise, in a counterexample sometimes known as the staircase paradox, polygonal chains of vertical and horizontal line segments of total length can lie arbitrarily close to a diagonal line segment of length , converging in distance to the diagonal segment but not converging to the same length. The Schwarz lantern provides a counterexample for surface area rather than length, and shows that for area, requiring vertices to lie on the approximated surface is not enough to ensure an accurate approximation.
German mathematician Hermann Schwarz (1843–1921) devised his construction in the late 19th century as a counterexample to the erroneous definition in J. A. Serret's 1868 book , which incorrectly states that:
Independently of Schwarz, Giuseppe Peano found the same counterexample. At the time, Peano was a student of Angelo Genocchi, who, from communication with Schwarz, already knew about the difficulty of defining surfa |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%C3%B3zsef%20Solymosi | József Solymosi is a Hungarian-Canadian mathematician and a professor of mathematics at the University of British Columbia. His main research interests are arithmetic combinatorics, discrete geometry, graph theory, and combinatorial number theory.
Education and career
Solymosi earned his master's degree in 1999 under the supervision of László Székely from the Eötvös Loránd University and his Ph.D. in 2001 at ETH Zürich under the supervision of Emo Welzl. His doctoral dissertation was Ramsey-Type Results on Planar Geometric Objects.
From 2001 to 2003 he was S. E. Warschawski Assistant Professor of Mathematics at the University of California, San Diego. He joined the faculty of the University of British Columbia in 2002.
He was editor in chief of the Electronic Journal of Combinatorics from 2013 to 2015.
Contributions
Solymosi was the first online contributor to the first Polymath Project, set by Timothy Gowers to find improvements to the Hales–Jewett theorem.
One of his theorems states that if a finite set of points in the Euclidean plane has every pair of points at an integer distance from each other, then
the set must have a diameter (largest distance) that is linear in the number of points. This result is connected to the Erdős–Anning theorem, according to which an infinite set of points with integer distances must lie on one line. In connection with the related Erdős–Ulam problem, on the existence of dense subsets of the plane for which all distances are rational numbers, Solymosi and de Zeeuw proved that every infinite rational-distance set must either be dense in the Zariski topology or it must have all but finitely many of its points on a single line or circle.
With Terence Tao, Solymosi proved a bound of on the number of incidences between points and affine subspaces of any finite-dimensional Euclidean space, whenever each pair of subspaces has at most one point of intersection. This generalizes the Szemerédi–Trotter theorem on points and lines in the Euclidean plane, and because of this the exponent of cannot be improved. Their theorem solves (up to the in the exponent) a conjecture of Toth, and was inspired by an analogue of the Szemerédi–Trotter theorem for lines in the complex plane.
He has also contributed improved bounds for the Erdős–Szemerédi theorem, showing that every set of real numbers has either a large set of pairwise sums or a large set of pairwise products, and for the Erdős distinct distances problem, showing that every set of points in the plane has many different pairwise distances.
Recognition
In 2006, Solymosi received a Sloan Research Fellowship and in 2008 he was awarded the André Aisenstadt Mathematics Prize. In 2012 he was named a doctor of the Hungarian Academy of Science.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-topology | In mathematics, especially in algebraic geometry, the v-topology (also known as the universally subtrusive topology) is a Grothendieck topology whose covers are characterized by lifting maps from valuation rings.
This topology was introduced by and studied further by , who introduced the name v-topology, where v stands for valuation.
Definition
A universally subtrusive map is a map f: X → Y of quasi-compact, quasi-separated schemes such that for any map v: Spec (V) → Y, where V is a valuation ring, there is an extension (of valuation rings) and a map Spec W → X lifting v.
Examples
Examples of v-covers include faithfully flat maps, proper surjective maps. In particular, any Zariski covering is a v-covering. Moreover, universal homeomorphisms, such as , the normalisation of the cusp, and the Frobenius in positive characteristic are v-coverings. In fact, the perfection of a scheme is a v-covering.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European%20Women%20in%20Mathematics | European Women in Mathematics (EWM) is an international association of women working in the field of mathematics in Europe. The association participates in political and strategic work to promote the role of women in mathematics and offers its members direct support. Its goals include encouraging women to study mathematics and providing visibility to women mathematicians. It is the "first and best known" of several organizations devoted to women in mathematics in Europe.
Mission
European Women in Mathematics aims to encourage women to study mathematics, support women in their careers, provide a meeting place for like-minded people and highlight and make women mathematicians visible. In this way, and by promoting scientific communication and working with groups and organisations with similar goals, they spread their vision of mathematics and science.
Mentorship
EWM has a mentoring programme which can be joined at any time of the year. EWM brings together a younger and a more experienced member to share different experiences and perspectives for motivation and inspiration.
Grants
EWM awards travel grants for female mathematicians every year. The travel grants are awarded to EWM members who are at an early stage of their career or work in a developing country and who need financial resources (travel and/or accommodation, up to 400 EUR) to attend and speak at an important conference in their field of expertise.
Regular Activities
Every other year, EWM holds a general meeting and a summer school. A newsletter is published at least twice a year, EWM has a website, a facebook group and an e-mail network. EWM coordinates a mentoring programme and awards a travel grant twice a year.
General Meetings
EWM hold a General Meeting every other year in the form of a week-long conference with a scientific program of mini-courses on mathematical topics, discussions on the situation of women in the field and a General Assembly.
General meetings have been held in Paris (1986), Copenhagen (1987), Warwick (1988), Lisbon (1990), Marseilles (1991), Warsaw (1993), Madrid (1995), Trieste ICTP (1997), Hannover (1999), Malta (2001), Luminy (2003), Volgograd (2005), Cambridge (2007), Novi Sad (2009), Barcelona (2011), Bonn (2013), Cortona (2015), and Graz (2018).
Activities at international conferences
EWM holds satellite conferences to the European Congress in Mathematics and takes part in ICWM International Conference of Women in Mathematics, International Congress of Women Mathematicians and now World Meeting for Women Mathematicians.
History
Although the group that became EWM began holding informal meetings as early as 1974,
EWM was founded as an organization in 1986 by Bodil Branner, Caroline Series, Gudrun Kalmbach, Marie-Françoise Roy, and Dona Strauss, inspired by the activities of the Association for Women in Mathematics in the USA. It was established as an association under Finnish law in 1993 with its seat in Helsinki.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kakutani%27s%20theorem%20%28measure%20theory%29 | In measure theory, a branch of mathematics, Kakutani's theorem is a fundamental result on the equivalence or mutual singularity of countable product measures. It gives an "if and only if" characterisation of when two such measures are equivalent, and hence it is extremely useful when trying to establish change-of-measure formulae for measures on function spaces. The result is due to the Japanese mathematician Shizuo Kakutani. Kakutani's theorem can be used, for example, to determine whether a translate of a Gaussian measure is equivalent to (only when the translation vector lies in the Cameron–Martin space of ), or whether a dilation of is equivalent to (only when the absolute value of the dilation factor is 1, which is part of the Feldman–Hájek theorem).
Statement of the theorem
For each , let and be measures on the real line , and let and be the corresponding product measures on . Suppose also that, for each , and are equivalent (i.e. have the same null sets). Then either and are equivalent, or else they are mutually singular. Furthermore, equivalence holds precisely when the infinite product
has a nonzero limit; or, equivalently, when the infinite series
converges.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3Blue1Brown | 3Blue1Brown is a math YouTube channel created and run by Grant Sanderson. The channel focuses on teaching higher mathematics from a visual perspective, and on the process of discovery and inquiry-based learning in mathematics, which Sanderson calls "inventing math". , the channel has 5.47 million subscribers.
Grant Sanderson
Early life and education
Sanderson graduated from Stanford University in 2015 with a bachelor's degree in mathematics. He worked for Khan Academy from 2015 to 2016 as part of their content fellowship program, producing videos and articles about multivariable calculus, after which he started focusing his full attention on 3Blue1Brown.
Career
In 2020, Grant Sanderson became one of the creators and lecturers of the MIT course Introduction to Computational Thinking, together with Alan Edelman, David Sanders, James Schloss, and Benoit Forget. The course uses the Julia programming language and Grant Sanderson's animations to explain various topics: convolutions, image processing, COVID-19 data visualization, epidemic modelling, ray tracing, introduction to climate modelling, ocean modelling, and the algorithms that lie behind these topics.
In February 2022, Sanderson determined that the best starting word on the game Wordle was CRANE using information theory. Later, he stated that the code he wrote to determine the best starting word had a bug in it, and the actual best word is SALET.
In January 2020, Sanderson delivered a talk in An Evening with Grant Sanderson, hosted by the Stanford Speakers Bureau. Sanderson offered his perspective on engaging with math: instead of prioritizing usefulness, he emphasizes emotion, wonder and imagination. He aims to "bring life to math" with visuals, graphics, and animations. In August 2021, Sanderson was one of several featured speakers at SIGGRAPH 2021.
In November 2022, Sanderson delivered a keynote speech, "What can algorithms teach us about education?", at the 17th Dutch National Informatics Congress CelerIT hosted by Stichting Nationaal Informatica Congres (SNiC). Sanderson offered his perspective on how mathematics education should evolve in the future and related his findings with the way neural networks learn, he emphasizes the need for students to grasp concepts and understand them.
Origin
3Blue1Brown started as a personal programming project in early 2015. In an episode of the podcast Showmakers, Sanderson explained that he wanted to practice his coding skills and decided to make a graphics library in Python, which eventually became the open-source project, Manim (Mathematical Animation engine). To have a goal for the project, he decided to create a video with the library and upload it to YouTube. On March 4, 2015, he uploaded his first video. He started to publish more videos and to improve the graphics tool.
Videos, podcasts and other media

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/August%20Gutzmer | Karl Friedrich August Gutzmer (2 February 1860 – 10 May 1924) was a German mathematician who was chairman of some German commissions about improvement of the teaching of mathematics.
Life and work
Gutzmer was born near Schwerin but his family moved to Berlin when he was eight years old. In Berlin he studied in Friedrichswerdersche Gymnasium till 1881. From 1881 to 1884 he attended mathematics lectures at Berlin University despite not being registered as a student. He graduated in 1887 in Berlin.
He began his academic career publishing five articles in the Portuguese journal Jornal de Sciencias mathematicas e astronomicas (best known as Teixeira's Journal) between 1887 and 1890. In 1893 he was awarded a doctorate submitting at the University of Halle a dissertation about certain partial differential equations. Married in the same year, he left his academic career to manage his wife's lands. In 1894 he returned to teaching at the Technical University of Berlin and the following year he obtained his venia legendi at the University of Halle where he taught as assistant professor till 1899.
From 1900 to 1905 he was full professor at the University of Jena. In 1905 he returned to Halle University succeeding Georg Cantor, where he remained till his death in 1924. He was rector of the university (1914–1915), chairman of the German Committee for Mathematical and Scientific Teaching (1908–1913), member of the Academy of Sciences Leopoldina from 1900 and his president from 1922 to 1924. At the International Congress of Mathematicians he was an invited speaker in 1904 in Heidelberg and in 1908 in Rome.
Gutzmer published more than forty works; among them, the reports about the activities of the teaching committee are specially relevant. He also wrote a history of the German Mathematical Society.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel%20Zelinsky | Daniel Zelinsky (22 November 1922, Chicago – 16 September 2015) was an American mathematician, specializing in algebra.
Zelinsky studied at the University of Chicago with bachelor's degree in 1941. From 1941 to 1943 he was a research mathematician in Columbia University's applied mathematics group, in which he was the youngest member. He was from 1943 to 1944 an instructor at the University of Chicago, where he received in 1943 his PhD under A. A. Albert with thesis Integral sets of quasiquaternion algebras. Zelinsky worked from 1944 to 1946 for the applied mathematics group of Columbia University and from 1946 to 1947 as an instructor at the University of Chicago. From 1947 to 1949 he was at the Institute for Advanced Study as a National Research Council Fellow.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe%20P.%20Buhler | Joe Peter Buhler (born 1950 in Vancouver, Washington) is an American mathematician known for his contributions to algebraic number theory, algebra and cryptography.
Education and career
Buhler received his undergraduate degree from Reed College in 1972, and his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1977 with thesis Icosahedral Galois Representations and thesis advisor John Tate. Buhler was a professor at Reed College in Portland, Oregon from 1980 until his retirement in 2005. From 2004 to 2017, he was director of the IDA Center for Communications Research in La Jolla, California.
In 1997, he introduced, with Zinovy Reichstein, the concept of essential dimension.
Buhler is involved in a project to numerically verify the Kummer–Vandiver conjecture of Harry Vandiver and Ernst Eduard Kummer concerning the class number of cyclotomic fields. Vandiver proved it with a desk calculator up to class number 600, Derrick Lehmer (in the late 1940s) to about 5000, and Buhler with colleagues (in 2001) to 12 million. He continues the project with David Harvey and others.
He was elected a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society in 2012.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson%E2%80%93Kadec%20theorem | In mathematics, in the areas of topology and functional analysis, the Anderson–Kadec theorem states that any two infinite-dimensional, separable Banach spaces, or, more generally, Fréchet spaces, are homeomorphic as topological spaces. The theorem was proved by Mikhail Kadec (1966) and Richard Davis Anderson.
Statement
Every infinite-dimensional, separable Fréchet space is homeomorphic to the Cartesian product of countably many copies of the real line
Preliminaries
Kadec norm: A norm on a normed linear space is called a with respect to a total subset of the dual space if for each sequence the following condition is satisfied:
If for and then
Eidelheit theorem: A Fréchet space is either isomorphic to a Banach space, or has a quotient space isomorphic to
Kadec renorming theorem: Every separable Banach space admits a Kadec norm with respect to a countable total subset of The new norm is equivalent to the original norm of The set can be taken to be any weak-star dense countable subset of the unit ball of
Sketch of the proof
In the argument below denotes an infinite-dimensional separable Fréchet space and the relation of topological equivalence (existence of homeomorphism).
A starting point of the proof of the Anderson–Kadec theorem is Kadec's proof that any infinite-dimensional separable Banach space is homeomorphic to
From Eidelheit theorem, it is enough to consider Fréchet space that are not isomorphic to a Banach space. In that case there they have a quotient that is isomorphic to A result of Bartle-Graves-Michael proves that then
for some Fréchet space
On the other hand, is a closed subspace of a countable infinite product of separable Banach spaces of separable Banach spaces. The same result of Bartle-Graves-Michael applied to gives a homeomorphism
for some Fréchet space From Kadec's result the countable product of infinite-dimensional separable Banach spaces is homeomorphic to
The proof of Anderson–Kadec theorem consists of the sequence of equivalences

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princeton%20University%20Department%20of%20Mathematics | The Princeton University Department of Mathematics is an academic department at Princeton University. Founded in 1760, the department has trained some of the world's most renowned and internationally recognized scholars of mathematics. Notable individuals affiliated with the department include John Nash, former faculty member and winner of the 1994 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences; Alan Turing, who received his doctorate from the department; and Albert Einstein who frequently gave lectures at Princeton and had an office in the building. Fields Medalists associated with the department include Manjul Bhargava, Charles Fefferman, Gerd Faltings, Michael Freedman, Elon Lindenstrauss, Andrei Okounkov, Terence Tao, William Thurston, Akshay Venkatesh, and Edward Witten (who began graduate study in the mathematics department before transferring to the physics department). Many other Princeton mathematicians are noteworthy, including Ralph Fox, Donald C. Spencer, John R. Stallings, Norman Steenrod, John Tate, John Tukey, Arthur Wightman, and Andrew Wiles.
Since 2012, the chair of the department has been David Gabai, who was awarded the Oswald Veblen Prize in Geometry in 2004 and was elected into the United States National Academy of Sciences in 2011.
History
The first courses in mathematics were offered in 1760 when undergraduates enrolled in classes such as algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and conic sections. Walter Minto was one of the earliest teachers of mathematics beginning in 1787. By the beginning of the twentieth century, the department became "one of the world's great centers of mathematical teaching and research." President Woodrow Wilson appointed Henry Burchard Fine as dean of the faculty in 1903 and later as the first chairman of the Department of Mathematics in 1905. The university invited a number of leading mathematics to conduct research at Princeton including Luther P. Eisenhart, Solomon Lefschetz, James W. Alexander II, James Jeans, J.H.M. Wedderburn, George David Birkhoff, Oswald Veblen. In 1928, Princeton created the first research professorship in mathematics in the United States. Research in the field of mathematics also continued to thrive when the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) was founded in Princeton, New Jersey in 1930. Although the IAS and Princeton remain separate, they have continued to maintain close relations and collaborative projects thanks to their proximity to one another. Students and faculty are able to collaborate with IAS members and attend IAS seminar series.
The political situation in Europe also caused an increased number of immigrants to enter the United States beginning in the 1930s. These scholars included Emil Artin, Valentine Bargmann, and William Feller. Others worked with both the then School of Mathematics and the Institute for Advanced Study to immigrate to the United States, including Albert Einstein, Hermann Weyl, Oskar Morgenstern, John von Neumann, Eugene Wigner, and Paul Erdős.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudy%20Horne | Rudy Lee Horne (1968 – 2017) was an American mathematician and professor of mathematics at Morehouse College. He worked on dynamical systems, including nonlinear waves. He was the mathematics consultant for the film Hidden Figures.
Early life and education
Horne grew up in the south side of Chicago. His father worked at Sherwin-Williams. He graduated from Crete-Monee High School. He completed a double degree in mathematics and physics at the University of Oklahoma in 1991. He joined the University of Colorado Boulder for his postgraduate studies, earning a master's in physics in 1994 and in mathematics in 1996. He completed his doctorate, Collision induced timing jitter and four-wave mixing in wavelength division multiplexing soliton systems, in 2001 which was supervised by Mark J. Ablowitz. He was the first African American to graduate from the University of Colorado Boulder Department of Applied Mathematics.
Career and research
After completing his PhD, Horne had a position at the California State University, East Bay. before working as postdoctoral researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with Chris Jones. Horne joined Florida State University in 2005. Horne joined Morehouse College in 2010 and was promoted to associate professor of mathematics in 2015. He continued to study four-wave mixing. His work considered nonlinear optical phenomena. He uncovered effects in parity-time symmetric systems.
Horne was recommended to serve as a mathematics consultant for Hidden Figures by Morehouse College. He worked closely with Theodore Melfi ensured the actors knew how to pronounce "Euler's". He spent four months working with 20th Century Fox. In particular, Horne worked with Taraji P. Henson on the mathematics she required for her role as Katherine Johnson. He taught the cast how to get excited by mathematics. His handwriting is on screen during a scene at the beginning of the film where Katherine Johnson solves a quadratic equation. He appeared on the interview series In the Know. Horne completed a Mathematical Association of America Maths Fest tour where he discussed the mathematics in Hidden Figures, focusing on the calculations that concerned Glenn's orbit around in 1962. He appeared on NPR's Closer Look.
He died on December 11, 2017 after surgery for a torn aorta. The University of Colorado Boulder established a Rudy Lee Horne Memorial Fellowship in his honour. He was described as a "rock star", inspiring generations of black students. He was awarded the National Association of Mathematicians (NAM) lifetime achievement award posthumously in 2018, and was recognized by Mathematically Gifted & Black as a Black History Month 2018 Honoree.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toby%20Gee | Toby Stephen Gee (born 2 January 1980) is a British mathematician working in number theory and arithmetic aspects of the Langlands Program. He specialises in algebraic number theory.
Gee was awarded the Whitehead Prize in 2012, the Leverhulme Prize in 2012, and was elected as a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society in 2014.
Career
Gee read mathematics at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he was Senior Wrangler in 2000. After completing his PhD with Kevin Buzzard at Imperial College in 2004, he was a Benjamin Peirce Assistant Professor at Harvard University until 2010. From 2010 to 2011 Gee was an assistant professor at Northwestern University, at which point he moved to Imperial College London, where he has been a professor since 2013.
With Mark Kisin, he proved the Breuil–Mézard conjecture for potentially Barsotti–Tate representations, and with Thomas Barnet-Lamb and David Geraghty, he proved the Sato–Tate conjecture for Hilbert modular forms. One of his most influential ideas has been the introduction of a general 'philosophy of weights', which has immensely clarified some aspects of the emerging mod p Langlands philosophy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphaethynolate | The phosphaethynolate anion, also referred to as PCO, is the phosphorus-containing analogue of the cyanate anion with the chemical formula or . The anion has a linear geometry and is commonly isolated as a salt. When used as a ligand, the phosphaethynolate anion is ambidentate in nature meaning it forms complexes by coordinating via either the phosphorus or oxygen atoms. This versatile character of the anion has allowed it to be incorporated into many transition metal and actinide complexes but now the focus of the research around phosphaethynolate has turned to utilising the anion as a synthetic building block to organophosphanes.
Synthesis
The first reported synthesis and characterisation of phosphaethynolate came from Becker et al. in 1992. They were able to isolate the anion as a lithium salt (in 87% yield) by reacting lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)phosphide with dimethyl carbonate . The x-ray crystallographic analysis of the anion determined the bond length to be (indicative of a phosphorus-carbon triple bond) and the bond length to be . Similar studies were performed on derivatives of this structure and the results indicated that dimerisation to form a four-membered Li ring is favoured by this molecule.
Ten years later, in 2002, Westerhausen et al. published the use of Becker's method to make a family of alkaline earth metal salts of PCO ; this work involved the synthesis of the magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium bis-phosphaethynolates. Like the salts previously reported by Becker, the alkali-earth metal analogues were unstable to moisture and air and thus were required to be stored at low temperatures (around ) in dimethoxyethane solutions.
It was not until 2011 that the first stable salt of the phosphaethynolate anion was reported by Grutzmacher and co-workers . They managed to isolate the compound as a brown solid in 28% yield. The structure of the stable sodium salt, formed by carbonylation of sodium phosphide, contains bridging PCO units in contrast to the terminal anions found in the previously reported structures. The authors noted that this sodium salt could be handled in air as well as water without major decomposition; this emphasises the significance of the accompanying counter cation in stabilisation of PCO.
Direct carbonylation was a method also employed by Goicoechea in 2013 in order to synthesis a phosphaethynolate anion stabilised by a potassium cation sequestered in 18-crown-6 . This method required the carbonylation of solutions of at and produced by-products that were readily separated during aqueous work ups. The use of aqueous work ups reflects the high stability of the salt in water. This method afforded the PCO anion in reasonable yields around 43%. Characterisation of the compound involved infra-red spectroscopy; the band indicative of the triple bond stretch was observed at .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilona%20Pal%C3%A1sti | Ilona Palásti (1924–1991) was a Hungarian mathematician who worked at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics. She is known for her research in discrete geometry, geometric probability, and the theory of random graphs.
With Alfréd Rényi and others, she was considered to be one of the members of the Hungarian School of Probability.
Contributions
In connection to the Erdős distinct distances problem, Palásti studied the existence of point sets for which the th least frequent distance occurs times. That is, in such points there is one distance that occurs only once, another distance that occurs exactly two times, a third distance that occurs exactly three times, etc. For instance, three points with this structure must form an isosceles triangle. Any evenly-spaced points on a line or circular arc also have the same property, but Paul Erdős asked whether this is possible for points in general position (no three on a line, and no four on a circle). Palásti found an eight-point set with this property, and showed that for any number of points between three and eight (inclusive) there is a subset of the hexagonal lattice with this property. Palásti's eight-point example remains the largest known.
Another of Palásti's results in discrete geometry concerns the number of triangular faces in an arrangement of lines. When no three lines may cross at a single point, she and Zoltán Füredi found sets of lines, subsets of the diagonals of a regular -gon, having triangles. This remains the best lower bound known for this problem, and differs from the upper bound by only triangles.
In geometric probability, Palásti is known for her conjecture on random sequential adsorption, also known in the one-dimensional case as "the parking problem". In this problem, one places non-overlapping balls within a given region, one at a time with random locations, until no more can be placed. Palásti conjectured that the average packing density in -dimensional space could be computed as the th power of the one-dimensional density. Although her conjecture led to subsequent research in the same area, it has been shown to be inconsistent with the actual average packing density in dimensions two through four.
Palásti's results in the theory of random graphs include bounds on the probability that a random graph has a Hamiltonian circuit, and on the probability that a random directed graph is strongly connected.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft%20configuration%20model | In applied mathematics, the soft configuration model (SCM) is a random graph model subject to the principle of maximum entropy under constraints on the expectation of the degree sequence of sampled graphs. Whereas the configuration model (CM) uniformly samples random graphs of a specific degree sequence, the SCM only retains the specified degree sequence on average over all network realizations; in this sense the SCM has very relaxed constraints relative to those of the CM ("soft" rather than "sharp" constraints). The SCM for graphs of size has a nonzero probability of sampling any graph of size , whereas the CM is restricted to only graphs having precisely the prescribed connectivity structure.
Model formulation
The SCM is a statistical ensemble of random graphs having vertices () labeled , producing a probability distribution on (the set of graphs of size ). Imposed on the ensemble are constraints, namely that the ensemble average of the degree of vertex is equal to a designated value , for all . The model is fully parameterized by its size and expected degree sequence . These constraints are both local (one constraint associated with each vertex) and soft (constraints on the ensemble average of certain observable quantities), and thus yields a canonical ensemble with an extensive number of constraints. The conditions are imposed on the ensemble by the method of Lagrange multipliers (see Maximum-entropy random graph model).
Derivation of the probability distribution
The probability of the SCM producing a graph is determined by maximizing the Gibbs entropy subject to constraints and normalization . This amounts to optimizing the multi-constraint Lagrange function below:
where and are the multipliers to be fixed by the constraints (normalization and the expected degree sequence). Setting to zero the derivative of the above with respect to for an arbitrary yields
the constant being the partition function normalizing the distribution; the above exponential expression applies to all , and thus is the probability distribution. Hence we have an exponential family parameterized by , which are related to the expected degree sequence by the following equivalent expressions:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preconditioned%20Crank%E2%80%93Nicolson%20algorithm | In computational statistics, the preconditioned Crank–Nicolson algorithm (pCN) is a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for obtaining random samples – sequences of random observations – from a target probability distribution for which direct sampling is difficult.
The most significant feature of the pCN algorithm is its dimension robustness, which makes it well-suited for high-dimensional sampling problems. The pCN algorithm is well-defined, with non-degenerate acceptance probability, even for target distributions on infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. As a consequence, when pCN is implemented on a real-world computer in large but finite dimension N, i.e. on an N-dimensional subspace of the original Hilbert space, the convergence properties (such as ergodicity) of the algorithm are independent of N. This is in strong contrast to schemes such as Gaussian random walk Metropolis–Hastings and the Metropolis-adjusted Langevin algorithm, whose acceptance probability degenerates to zero as N tends to infinity.
The algorithm as named was highlighted in 2013 by Cotter, Roberts, Stuart and White, and its ergodicity properties were proved a year later by Hairer, Stuart and Vollmer. In the specific context of sampling diffusion bridges, the method was introduced in 2008.
Description of the algorithm
Overview
The pCN algorithm generates a Markov chain on a Hilbert space whose invariant measure is a probability measure of the form
for each measurable set , with normalising constant given by
where is a Gaussian measure on with covariance operator and is some function. Thus, the pCN method applied to target probability measures that are re-weightings of a reference Gaussian measure.
The Metropolis–Hastings algorithm is a general class of methods that try to produce such Markov chains , and do so by a two-step procedure of first proposing a new state given the current state and then accepting or rejecting this proposal, according to a particular acceptance probability, to define the next state . The idea of the pCN algorithm is that a clever choice of (non-symmetric) proposal for a new state given might have an associated acceptance probability function with very desirable properties.
The pCN proposal
The special form of this pCN proposal is to take
or, equivalently,
The parameter is a step size that can be chosen freely (and even optimised for statistical efficiency). One then generates and sets
The acceptance probability takes the simple form
It can be shown that this method not only defines a Markov chain that satisfies detailed balance with respect to the target distribution , and hence has as an invariant measure, but also possesses a spectral gap that is independent of the dimension of , and so the law of converges to as . Thus, although one may still have to tune the step size parameter to achieve a desired level of statistical efficiency, the performance of the pCN method is robust to the dimension of the samplin |

Yes, the Virgin Mary appeared at Kibeho on November 28th, 1981 and in the months that followed. There are more reasons to believe in the apparitions than to deny them. Only the three initial testimonies merit being considered authentic; they were given by Alphonsine Mumureke, Nathalie Mukamazimpaka, and by Marie Claire Mukangango.

From 1879 to 1882 he studied mathematics at ETH Zurich; in 1882 he moved to Berlin where he studied under Weierstrass, Frobenius and other outstanding mathematicians. In 1885 he moved to Leipzig, where he was awarded a doctorate under Felix Klein in 1885.
Returned to Zurich, he was privatdozent at ETH Zurich. In 1889 he was named full professor at the Industrieschule (in 1904 renamed as Oberrealschule, and now Kantonsschule Rämibühl). He was the principal of the school from 1904 to 1926 whem he retired.
Fiedler only produced some secondary school textbooks and any research paper. But he has left some lecture notes on courses given by his father and other professors like Weierstrass.
He also joined the Swiss Army and became the youngest colonel in the army. From 1889 he lectured on ballistics at the Polytechnicum. He was also member of a number of committees to improve the secondary schools.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew%20J.%20Sommese | Andrew John Sommese (born 3 May 3, 1948 in New York City) is an American mathematician, specializing in algebraic geometry.
Sommese received in 1969 from Fordham University a bachelor's degree and in 1973 from Princeton University a PhD under Phillip Griffiths with thesis Algebraic properties of the period-mapping. As a postdoc Sommese was from 1973 to 1975 a Gibbs Instructor at Yale University and was for the academic year 1975–1976 at the Institute for Advanced Study. He became at Cornell University in 1975 an assistant professor and at the University of Notre Dame in 1979 an associate professor and in 1983 a full professor. At the University of Notre Dame he was from 1988 to 1992 the chair of the mathematics department and from 1987 to 1992 the co-director of the Center for Applied Mathematics. Since 1994 he is there Duncan Professor for mathematics.
Sommese deals with numerical algebraic geometry (solution of polynomial equation systems) with applications, e.g. in robotics. For such applications he, with colleagues, developed software (such as Bertini) and cluster-software (i.e. software for computer clusters). He also deals with the numerical analysis of systems of nonlinear differential equations.
He was a visiting professor at the University of Göttingen (1977) and the University of Bonn (1978/79) and a visiting scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn.
In 1993 he received the Humboldt Prize. In 1973 he was a Sloan Research Fellow. From 1986 to 1993 he was a co-editor of Manuscripta Mathematica and since 2000 is a co-editor for Advances in Geometry. He was elected a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society in 2012.
His doctoral students include Mark Andrea de Cataldo and Jaroslaw Wisniewski.

He started studying mathematics at university, but quit to enroll at Milan's film-making school Civica Scuola di Cinema «Luchino Visconti», where he graduated in 1999. He taught himself American literature and started directing documentaries in 2004, especially about social, political and literary topics. His first work as a writer was the short story Fare ordine, which won the Premio Subway−Letteratura. He loves New York City, which has become the main subject of some of his documentaries. His other passion is the mountains, where he likes to spend a few months alone every year. In 2016, he published his first novel Le otto montagne (The Eight Mountains, English translation by Simon Carnell and Erica Segre for Atria Books, 2018), which granted him the Premio Strega 2017, Italy′s most prestigious literary award, as well as various international awards, such as the Prix Médicis étranger, the Prix François Sommer, and the English Pen Translates Award.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feldman%E2%80%93H%C3%A1jek%20theorem | In probability theory, the Feldman–Hájek theorem or Feldman–Hájek dichotomy is a fundamental result in the theory of Gaussian measures. It states that two Gaussian measures and on a locally convex space are either equivalent measures or else mutually singular: there is no possibility of an intermediate situation in which, for example, has a density with respect to but not vice versa. In the special case that is a Hilbert space, it is possible to give an explicit description of the circumstances under which and are equivalent: writing and for the means of and and and for their covariance operators, equivalence of and holds if and only if
and have the same Cameron–Martin space ;
the difference in their means lies in this common Cameron–Martin space, i.e. ; and
the operator is a Hilbert–Schmidt operator on
A simple consequence of the Feldman–Hájek theorem is that dilating a Gaussian measure on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space (i.e. taking for some scale factor ) always yields two mutually singular Gaussian measures, except for the trivial dilation with since is Hilbert–Schmidt only when

Education
Lee graduated from Princeton University with a bachelor's degree in 1972, then became a systems programmer (at Texas Instruments from 1972 to 1974 and at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory in 1974–1975) and a teacher at Wooster School in Danbury, Connecticut in 1975–1977. He continued his studies at Tufts University in 1977–1978. He received his doctorate from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1982 under the direction of Richard Melrose with the dissertation Higher asymptotics of the complex Monge-Ampère equation and geometry of CR manifolds.
Career
From 1982 to 1987, Lee was an assistant professor at Harvard University. At the University of Washington he became in 1987 an assistant professor, in 1989 an associate professor, and in 1996 a full professor.
Research
Lee's research has focused on the Yamabe problem, geometry of and analysis on CR manifolds, and differential geometry questions of general relativity (such as the constraint equations in the initial value problem of Einstein equations and existence of Einstein metrics on manifolds).
Lee created a mathematical software package named Ricci for performing tensor calculations in differential geometry. Ricci, named in honor of Gregorio Ricci-Curbastro and completed in 1992, consists of 7000 lines of Mathematica code. It was chosen for inclusion in the MathSource library of Mathematica packages supported by Wolfram Research.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concha%20G%C3%B3mez | Concha Maria Gómez is an American mathematician. She is a professor of mathematics at Diablo Valley College. Gómez is known for being one of the co-founders of the women's organization The Noetherian Ring at the University of California Berkeley in 1991 while attending as a doctoral student. She is an advocate for diversity in the STEM fields and worked for the Wisconsin Emerging Scholars program of the University of Wisconsin–Madison, whose goal was to promote retention of minority students in STEM.
Early life and education
Gómez was born to Patricia M. Difanis Gómez and Nicolas Humberto Gómez. She attended University of Wisconsin–Madison for two years before dropping out due to lack of funds and support. She moved from Madison to San Francisco at the age of 20 and worked odd jobs before taking classes for fun at a community college. Gómez eventually transferred to University of California, Berkeley and earned a B.A. and Ph.D. in mathematics in 2000.
Her dissertation was titled "Definability in p-adic power series rings." Leo Harrington was her doctoral advisor. Jack Silver and Deborah A. Nolan served on her dissertation committee. Gómez cites the support of Jenny Harrison and Donald Sarason for encouraging her to form relationships with mathematicians outside of UC Berkeley. Gómez is known for being one of the co-founders of the women's organization The Noetherian Ring at the University of California Berkeley in 1991 while attending as a doctoral student.
Career
Gómez was an assistant professor of mathematics at Middlebury College. In the fall of 2004, she began working at University of Wisconsin–Madison in a non-tenure track position to teach math and direct the Wisconsin Emerging Scholars (WES) program whose goal was to promote retention of minority students in STEM. In 2006, Gómez cited Wisconsin's passing a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage as a motivation to seek academic employment elsewhere. She is a professor of mathematics at Diablo Valley College where she is also fostering a support network of Latinx faculty and students. She is an advocate for diversity in the STEM fields.
Gomez is included in a deck of playing cards featuring notable women mathematicians published by the Association of Women in Mathematics.
