  • Manjul Bhargava
    The Work of Manjul Bhargava Manjul Bhargava's work in number theory has had a profound influence on the field. A mathematician of extraordinary creativity, he has a taste for simple problems of timeless beauty, which he has solved by developing elegant and powerful new methods that offer deep insights. When he was a graduate student, Bhargava read the monumental Disqui- sitiones Arithmeticae, a book about number theory by Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777-1855). All mathematicians know of the Disquisitiones, but few have actually read it, as its notation and computational nature make it difficult for modern readers to follow. Bhargava nevertheless found the book to be a wellspring of inspiration. Gauss was interested in binary quadratic forms, which are polynomials ax2 +bxy +cy2, where a, b, and c are integers. In the Disquisitiones, Gauss developed his ingenious composition law, which gives a method for composing two binary quadratic forms to obtain a third one. This law became, and remains, a central tool in algebraic number theory. After wading through the 20 pages of Gauss's calculations culminating in the composition law, Bhargava knew there had to be a better way. Then one day, while playing with a Rubik's cube, he found it. Bhargava thought about labeling each corner of a cube with a number and then slic- ing the cube to obtain 2 sets of 4 numbers. Each 4-number set naturally forms a matrix. A simple calculation with these matrices resulted in a bi- nary quadratic form. From the three ways of slicing the cube, three binary quadratic forms emerged.

Dear All, Any curricula at any level should be based on what objectives or goals the educator or educational institution is trying to achieve in regard to students. A course of study for a class that teaches a student how to touch-type should be very different from one that teaches students to write a novel or a poem or even the results of a science experiment. Therefore, a curriculum is of the utmost importance, as it mandates, among other things, how teachers and students will spend their time—in a lab? in clinical practice? in creating? in listening to lectures? It also clearly shows what a class, a department, a school, or an institution values, what these entities see as their mission, and what each expects its graduates to achieve. A curriculum should be the map to the essentials in any course of study, from the classroom level to the institutional level.

  • January 2013
    January1 of 91. 2013 International affairs: US President Barack Obama on 31 January, has come out with his much-awaited comprehensive immigration reforms, that will pave the way for legalization of more than 11 million undocumented immigrants. The reforms, which also propose to eliminate the annual country caps in the employment category, are expected to benefit large number of Indian technocrats and professionals. In a major policy speech on comprehensive immigration in Las Vegas, Obama urged the Congress to act on his proposals. The other key proposals of his "comprehensive" reform plan include "stapling" a green card to the diplomas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), PhD and Masters Degree graduates from qualified US universities who have found employment in the country. The President also proposed to create a startup visa for job-creating entrepreneurs. The proposal allows foreign entrepreneurs, who attract financing or revenue from American investors and customers, to start and grow their businesses in the US, and to remain permanently if their companies grow further, create jobs for American workers, and strengthen the economy. The proposal removes the backlog for employment-sponsored immigration by eliminating annual country caps and adding additional visas to the system. Outdated legal immigration programs are reformed to meet current and future demands by exempting certain categories from annual visa limitations, the White House said. Obama also proposed to eliminate existing backlogs in the family-sponsored immigration system by recapturing unused visas and temporarily increasing annual visa numbers. The proposal also raises existing annual country caps from seven per cent to 15 per cent for the family-sponsored immigration system.

The land of the five rivers and Sindh; Copyright © www.panhwar.com 2 PREFACE. My object in publishing these “Sketches” is to furnish travelers passing through Sindh and the Punjab with a short historical and descriptive account of the country and places of interest between Karachi, Multan, Lahore, Peshawar, and Delhi. I mainly confine my remarks to the more prominent cities and towns adjoining the railway system. Objects of antiquarian interest and the principal arts and manufactures in the different localities are briefly noticed. I have alluded to the independent adjoining States, and I have added outlines of the routes to Kashmir, the various hill sanitaria, and of the marches which may be made in the interior of the Western Himalayas. In order to give a distinct and definite idea as to the situation of the different localities mentioned, their position with reference to the various railway stations is given as far as possible. The names of the railway stations and principal places described head each article or paragraph, and in the margin are shown the minor places or objects of interest in the vicinity.
