Complexities
Sophie Germain taught herself mathematics by candlelight, huddled in her bedclothes. Ada Byron Lovelace anticipated aspects of general-purpose digital computing by more than a century. Cora Ratto de Sadosky advanced messages of tolerance and equality while sharing her mathematical talents with generations of students. This captivating book gives voice to women mathematicians from the late eighteenth century through to the present day. It documents the complex nature of the conditions women around the world have faced--and continue to face--while pursuing their careers in mathematics. The stories of the three women above and those of many more appear here, each one enlightening and inspiring....
Fifty Years of Women in Mathematics
The Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM), the oldest organization in the world for women in mathematics, had its fiftieth anniversary in 2021. This collection of refereed articles, illustrated by color photographs, reflects on women in mathematics and the organization as a whole. Some articles focus on the situation for women in mathematics at various times and places, including other countries. Others describe how individuals have shaped AWM, and, in turn, how the organization has impacted individuals as well as the broader mathematical community. Some are personal stories about careers in mathematics. Fifty Years of Women in Mathematics: Reminiscences, History, and Visions for the Fu...
Algebraic Groups and Their Generalizations: Quantum and Infinite-Dimensional Methods
Proceedings of a research institute held at Pennsylvania State University, July 1991, focusing on quantum and infinite-dimensional methods of algebraic groups. Topics include perverse sheaves, finite Chevalley groups, the general theory of algebraic groups, representations, invariant theory, general
The Arcata Conference on Representations of Finite Groups, Part 1
The papers in these proceedings of the 1986 Arcata Summer Institute bear witness to the extraordinarily vital and intense research in the representation theory of finite groups. The confluence of diverse mathematical disciplines has brought forth work of great scope and depth. Particularly striking is the influence of algebraic geometry and cohomology theory in the modular representation theory and the character theory of reductive groups over finite fields, and in the general modular representation theory of finite groups. The continuing developments in block theory and the general character theory of finite groups is noteworthy. The expository and research aspects of the Summer Institute are well represented by these papers.
Accuracy and Reliability in Scientific Computing
This book investigates some of the difficulties related to scientific computing, describing how these can be overcome.
Pioneers of Representation Theory: Frobenius, Burnside, Schur, and Brauer
The AMS History of Mathematics series is one of the most popular items for bookstore sales. These books feature colorful, attractive covers that are perfect for face out displays. The topics will appeal to a broad audience in the mathematical and scientific communities.
WOMEN'S WORTH, PRICELESS
Women's Worth: Priceless focuses on the necessity to protect and promote the human rights of women and girls around the world. As a feminist book written by a man, it is unique in its approach and message. It provides an ethical theme centred on feminism, equity, and social justice. It is a sad commentary on the historical and traditional prejudice against women and girls. In the world's poorest countries, women and girls are among the most vulnerable and marginalized members of society. This goes without saying that women's rights violations are present in every country and at every level of society. Eliminating gender discrimination and empowering women are among the imperatives facing the...
