ADVERTISING & INQUIRIES The Notices publishes situations wanted and classified advertising, and display advertising for publishers and academic or scientific organiza­ tions. Requests for information: Advertising: Wahlene Siconio Change of address or subscriptions: Eileen Linnane Book Order number 800-556-7774. Copyright© 1984 by the American Mathematical Society, Printed in the United States of America. Subscribers' changes of address should be reported well in advance to avoid disruption of service: address labels are prepared four to six weeks in advance of the date of mailing. Requests for a change of address should always include the member or subscriber code and preferably a copy of the entire mailing label. Members are reminded that U. S. Postal Service change-of­ address forms are not adequate for this purpose, since they make no provision for several important items of information which are essential for the AMS records. Suitable forms are published from time to time in the Notices (e.g. June 1984. page 427 ). Send change of address notices to the Society at Post Office Box 6248, Providence, RI 02940. [Notices is published eight times a year (January, February, April, June, August, October, November, December) by the American Mathematical Society at 201 Charles Street, Providence, RI 02904. Second class postage paid at Providence, RI and additional mailing offices. POSTMASTER: Send address change notices to Membership and Sales Department, American Mathematical Society, Post Office Box 6248, Providence, RI 02940.] Publication here of the Society's street address, and the other information in brackets above, is a technical requirement of the U. S. Postal Service. The street address should never be used by correspondents, unless they plan to deliver their messages by hand. Members are strongly urged to notify the Society themselves of address changes (in the manner described above), since (as explained above) reliance on the postal service change-of-address forms is liable to cause delays in processing such requests in the AMS office. Statement by AMS Committee on Employment and Educational Policy Current and prospective graduate students in mathematics and their advisors should be informed of employment prospects in the profession. Information on employment in mathematics can be found in the following articles: 27th Annual AMS Survey, First Report, November 1983 Notices, pages 720-747; Second Report, February 1984 Notices, pages 146-151; 28th Annual AMS Survey, First Report, November 1984 Notices, pages 744- 770. The 24th Annual Survey includes a Report on the 1980 AMS Nonacademic Salary Survey which may be found on pages 610-614 of the November 1980 issue of the Notices. Other items of interest concerning the mathematics profession are Toward Renewing a Threatened Resource: Findings and Recommendations of the Ad Hoc Committee on Resources for the Mathematical Sciences, by Edward E. David, Jr., February 1984 Notices, pages 141-145; The Supply of Mathematical Researchers in the 1990s, April 1984 Notices, pages 271-277; and Renewing U.S. Mathematics: Critical Resource for the Future, known as the David Committee Report, August 1984 Notices, pages 435-466, continued in the October 1984 Notices, pages 570-616.

We both knew Dijkstra |though each of us in different ways| and we both were aware that his influence on computer science was not limited to his pioneering software projects and research articles. He interacted with his colleagues by way of numerous discussions, extensive letter correspondence, and hundreds of so-called EWD reports that he used to send to a select group of researchers.

Carbone and R. De Arcangelis, 191{211, Gakkotosho, Tokyo, 2003". On Homogenization and Γ-convergence Luc TARTAR1 In memory of Ennio DE GIORGI When in the Fall of 1976 I had chosen \Homog´en´eisationdans les ´equationsaux d´eriv´eespartielles" (Homogenization in partial differential equations) for the title of my Peccot lectures, which I gave in the beginning of 1977 at Coll`egede France in Paris, I did not know of the term Γ-convergence, which I first heard almost a year after, in a talk that Ennio DE GIORGI gave in the seminar that Jacques-Louis LIONS was organizing at Coll`egede France on Friday afternoons. I had not found the definition of Γ-convergence really new, as it was quite similar to questions that were already discussed in control theory under the name of relaxation (which was a more general question than what most people mean by that term now), and it was the convergence in the sense of Umberto MOSCO [Mos] but without the restriction to convex functionals, and it was the natural nonlinear analog of a result concerning G-convergence that Ennio DE GIORGI had obtained with Sergio SPAGNOLO [DG&Spa]; however, Ennio DE GIORGI's talk contained a quite interesting example, for which he referred to Luciano MODICA (and Stefano MORTOLA) [Mod&Mor], where functionals involving surface integrals appeared as Γ-limits of functionals involving volume integrals, and I thought that it was the interesting part of the concept, so I had found it similar to previous questions but I had felt that the point of view was slightly different.

They were joined in July, I962, by David Gries and the writer and later by Michael Rossin, Theresa Wang and Rudolf Bayer, all graduate students at the University of Illinois This manual is an effort to explain the differences which exist between publication ALGOL-60 as it is defined by the Revised Report on the Algorithmic Language ALGOL-60 (as published in the January I963 issue of Communications of the Association for Computing Machinery) and as it actually has been implemented by the group named above, Relatively few features of ALGOL-60 have not been implemented, so this manual consists mostly of an explanation of the "hardware" representation of true ALGOL rather than deviations from it.

  • Leray in Oflag XVIIA: the Origins of Sheaf Theory

    Leray in Oflag XVIIA: the Origins of Sheaf Theory

    Leray in Oflag XVIIA: The origins of sheaf theory, sheaf cohomology, and spectral sequences Haynes Miller∗ February 23, 2000 Jean Leray (November 7, 1906{November 10, 1998) was confined to an officers’ prison camp (“Oflag”) in Austria for the whole of World War II. There he took up algebraic topology, and the result was a spectacular flowering of highly original ideas, ideas which have, through the usual metamorphism of history, shaped the course of mathematics in the sixty years since then. Today we would divide his discoveries into three parts: sheaves, sheaf cohomology, and spectral sequences. For the most part these ideas became known only after the war ended, and fully five more years passed before they became widely understood. They now stand at the very heart of much of modern mathematics. I will try to describe them, how Leray may have come to them, and the reception they received. 1 Prewar work Leray's first published work, in 1931, was in fluid dynamics; he proved the basic existence and uniqueness results for the Navier-Stokes equations. Roger Temam [74] has expressed the view that no further significant rigorous work on Navier-Stokes equations was done until that of E. Hopf in 1951. The use of Picard's method for proving existence of solutions of differential equa- tions led Leray to his work in topology with the Polish mathematician Juliusz Schauder. Schauder had recently proven versions valid in Banach spaces of two theorems proven for finite complexes by L. E. J. Brouwer: the fixed point theorem and the theorem of invariance of domain.
