Her Remaining Years Following another such reaction in 1889, russian mathematicians were indignantat this slight of Kovalevskaya and decided to honour her. http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Projects/Ellison/Chapters/Ch15.html

Despite the fact that she was somewhat bored and frustrated by her life in Sweden, it had become clear to Sofia that she was unlikely to gain the Russian or French professorship which she so craved. Mittag-Leffler worked tirelessly on Sofia's behalf to ensure that her position in Stockholm would be made permanent. Her victory in the Prix-Bordin was just what he needed to help his case at this time, as there were still those who felt that Sofia was not the best possible person for the job. Nobody of note was willing to allow their qualifications to be directly compared with Sofia's which meant that her position at Stockholm University was not contested. As a result, she became the first woman in modern times to be appointed to a lifetime professorship. Sofia would produce no more original mathematical papers prior to her untimely death, yet did continue to refine her work on the fixed point problem. Following her death Mittag-Leffler also published the simplified proof to a lemma which Bruns used in the proof of his theorem. It is thought that Sofia came up with this whilst writing her original doctoral dissertation. Her health continued to plague her at this time however, and when she was out climbing whilst on a holiday with Maxim she suffered a heart attack.

Extractions: Canada Prof. W.S.Hatcher has now taken early retirement from Laval University, Quebec, Canada and has elected to reside and work in St.Petersburg. His specialty is logic, model theory, theoretical computer science and philosophy. Prof.Hatcher's opinion is: The recent merging of the Euler Mathematical Institute with the Steklov Institute for the Mathematical Sciences in St.Petersburg has created an unusually rich scientific and cultural environment for the pursuit of research and study in mathematics. In spite of the well-publicized dislocations resulting from the breakup of the Soviet Union, the Russian tradition of excellence in mathematics persists and flourishes in St.Petersburg, where world-class specialists in various fields of mathematics continue to reside and work.
Jesuit Mathematicians And Jesuit Scientists Berkeley. The enthusiasm russian mathematicians have always shown forhis work is recently being shared by the West. 9. Christopher http://www.faculty.fairfield.edu/jmac/sj/sjscient.htm
Extractions: Scientists and Astronomers The fact that eighty countries of the world have found that the Jesuit impact on these countries deserves commemorative stamps is an emphatic endorsement of world-wide interest in Jesuits. A few copies of the hundreds of stamps concerning Jesuit apostolates have been selected and displayed on these pages. They are arranged in eight different categories with as many stamps on a page as could reasonably fit. The narratives for the stamps derive from sources such as The Jesuit Annuarium (Yearbook) and Bangert's History of the Society of Jesus. Some Jesuits fall into several categories so are mentioned more than once as long as there were different stamps for the different categories. Unfortunately many Jesuits who deserve mention were never honored by stamps. So, while this collection is not an exhaustive history of the Jesuit Society, it does indicate the world-wide interest in Jesuits. Pozzo's celebrated fresco on the ceiling of St. Ignatius provides a fitting introduction. (Joseph F. MacDonnell, S.J.) 1. Christopher Clavius, S.J. (1538-1612)

Extractions: Chronological Find Thread On Monday, December 30, 2002, at 11:57 AM, Jesse Mazer wrote: As I understood it, the basic idea here was to use the fact that history must work out consistently to get a machine that could solve problems much faster than a Turing machine. For example, for any problem that requires exponential time to reach a solution but for which possible solutions can be checked in polynomial time, you could have the machine pick a possible solution at random, then check to see if the solution actually works, then if it *doesn't* work it sends back a sort of override command that changes the original guess, which would create an inconsistency.

Extractions: Sure. Israeli software scientists are masters of the art. by Julie Pitta, Forbes , February 23, 1998 HERE'S A GOOD EXPORT INDUSTRY for a country that has not too much capital but lots of brainpower: mathematics. Equipment costs are very small. You just need a pad of paper and a sharp pencil. The potential value added is great: software algorithms worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. The computer age is going to make-is already making-a lot of mathematicians rich. Built into things like CAT scan machines, telephones, videogames, cable TV boxes, smart bombs and DNA analyzers are complex formulas that dictate a result on the basis of a precise series of mathematical steps. If your algorithms are better than the next fellow's, your CAT scanner-or whatever it is-runs faster, does more or produces a sharper image than the competing product. The finished product is likely to come from a nation with an advanced electronics industry, like the U.S. or Japan. But the algorithm can come from anywhere that a clever mathematician happens to reside-India and Russia, for example. Israel is coming on strong, too. At least a dozen Israeli-based companies have gone public on the strength of products with heavy-duty algorithms embedded in them. Mathematician-turned-entrepreneur Eli Mintz, 33, got his start in a desert town so barren that visits to David Ben-Gurion's grave offered the only respite from work. The location was one of necessity, not choice: Unable to raise money from private sources-venture capital in Israel was scarce then-Mintz and two partners turned to their government, which granted them $120,000 in seed money and an office in remote Sde-Boker.
