The young in Heidelberg scientists attend lectures by preeminent scholars, all of whom are laureates of the Abel Prize (awarded by the OSMO PEKONEN Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters), the Fields Medal (awarded by the International Mathematical Union), the Nevanlinna Prize (awarded by the International Math- ematical Union and the University of Helsinki, Finland), or the Computing Prize and the Turing Prize (both awarded This column is a forum for discussion of mathematical by the Association for Computing Machinery). communities throughout the world, and through all In 2018, for instance, the following eminences appeared as lecturers at the sixth HLF, which I attended as a science time.

  • Unione Matematica Italiana 1921 - 2012
    Unione Matematica Italiana 1921 - 2012 Unione Matematica Italiana Soggetto produttore Unione Matematica Italiana Estremi cronologici 1921 - Tipologia Ente Tipologia ente ente di cultura, ricreativo, sportivo, turistico Profilo storico / Biografia La fondazione dell’Unione Matematica Italiana è strettamente legata alla costituzione del Consiglio Internazionale delle Ricerche e al voto da questo formulato a Bruxelles nel luglio 1919 nel quale si auspicava il sorgere di «Unioni Internazionali» per settori scientifici, ai quali avrebbero dovuto aderire dei «Comitati nazionali» costituiti «ad iniziativa delle Accademie nazionali scientifiche o dei Consigli Nazionali delle Ricerche». In Italia, non essendo ancora stato costituito il C.N.R., fu l’Accademia dei Lincei, nella persona del suo presidente Vito Volterra, a farsi promotrice della costituzione dei Comitati nazionali. Per il Comitato della matematica Vito Volterra propose nel 1920, insieme a un gruppo di matematici, fra cui Luigi Bianchi, Pietro Burgatti, Roberto Marcolongo, Carlo Somigliana e Giovanni Vacca, la costituzione di una Unione Matematica Italiana, redigendo un primo schema di programma che poneva fra gli scopi dell’Unione l’incoraggiamento alla scienza pura, il ravvicinamento tra la matematica pura e le altre scienze, l’orientamento ed il progresso dell’insegnamento e l’organizzazione, la preparazione e la partecipazione a congressi nazionali ed internazionali. La proposta fu accolta dall’Accademia dei Lincei nel marzo 1921 e quale presidente dell’Unione venne designato Salvatore Pincherle, illustre matematico dell'Università di Bologna. L’Unione Matematica Italiana (UMI) nacque ufficialmente il 31 marzo 1922 con la diffusione da parte di Salvatore Pincherle di una lettera con la quale presentava il programma della Società invitando i destinatari ad aderire all’iniziativa.
