    Trends in Mathematics Trends in Mathematics is a series devoted to the publication of volumes arising from con- ferences and lecture series focusing on a particular topic from any area of mathematics. Its aim is to make current developments available to the community as rapidly as possible without compromise to quality and to archive these for reference. Proposals for volumes can be sent to the Mathematics Editor at either Springer Basel AG Birkhäuser P.O. Box 133 CH-4010 Basel Switzerland or Birkhauser Boston 233 Spring Street New York, NY 10013 USA Material submitted for publication must be screened and prepared as follows: All contributions should undergo a reviewing process similar to that carried out by journals and be checked for correct use of language which, as a rule, is English. Articles without proofs, or which do not contain any significantly new results, should be rejected. High quality survey papers, however, are welcome. We expect the organizers to deliver manuscripts in a form that is essentially ready for direct reproduction. Any version of TeX is acceptable, but the entire collection of files must be in one particular dialect of TeX and unified according to simple instructions available from Birkhäuser. Furthermore, in order to guarantee the timely appearance of the proceedings it is essential that the final version of the entire material be submitted no later than one year after the conference. The total number of pages should not exceed 350. The first-mentioned author of each article will receive 25 free offprints. To the participants of the congress the book will be offered at a special rate.

  • American Mathematical Society—Contributions
    American Mathematical Society—Contributions Dear Friends and Colleagues, The American Mathematical Society works in many ways to foster a vibrant environment for mathema- ticians. Programs and services that directly improve scholarship and professional life have substantial impact. You, our members and friends, make this work possible through your generosity. The Society celebrated its 125th Anniversary in 2013, and in concordance, many of you directed your philanthropic resources toward the AMS. Your donations promoted excellence in research via the Centennial Fellowship and other prizes and awards; they ensured that young mathematicians participated in camps that fed their eagerness for mathematics; they supported graduate students as they took crucial steps early in their careers and they enabled access to MathSciNet across the globe, assisting mathematicians in developing countries. On behalf of all these beneficiaries and those working to support these programs, I thank you. The Society’s work was lifted by substantial individual gifts this year. D. Andrew Beal increased the prize related to the Beal Conjecture to $1 million dollars; the spendable income funds the Paul Erdo˝s Memorial Lecture and other key AMS programs. The Epsilon Fund was aided by Adrian Banner with roy- alties from his book sales, as well as by Thomas Savage. Aurellia Sobczyk made a gift in memory of her husband, Andrew. Cathleen Synge Morawetz and Herbert Morawetz bolstered the Oswald Veblen Prize in Geometry. The AMS received a legacy gift from the late mathematician Kathleen Baxter. The Society also recognizes Robert and Maria Steinberg’s longtime support of the AMS, and we acknowledge with sadness the passing of Maria in 2013.

  • President's Report
    Volume 37, Number 2 NEWSLETTER March–April 2007 President’s Report To AWM Members: Greetings! I have the pleasure of announcing the following: n Rebecca Goldin is the first Michler Prize winner. The Michler Prize provides a fellowship for the awardee to spend a semester in the Mathematics Depart- ment of Cornell University without teaching obligations, thanks to the generos- ity of the Michler family. n In May, Lai-Sang Young will give the Kovalevsky Lecture at the Applied Dynami- cal Systems Activity Group meeting in Snowbird, Utah. IN THIS ISSUE n In July, Pauline van den Driessche will give the first Olga Taussky Todd Lecture at the International Council for Industrial and Applied Mathematics 4 From the Past President Congress in Zurich. This lecture is organized by AWM and European Women in Mathematics. 7 AWM at the JMM n At the same meeting, Nancy Kopell will give the John von Neumann Lecture. 18 ICM Madrid At this year’s Joint Mathematics Meetings in New Orleans, there were AWM 24 Book Review events each day. The AWM panel “Women Advancing to Leadership: When and How” was organized by our now past president Barbara Keyfitz. The topic of this 26 Education Column panel seems very fitting for someone who is a leader twice over, as president of AWM and as director of the Fields Institute. The panelists were: Lisa Fauci, pro- fessor of mathematics at Tulane University, also founder and associate director of the Center for Computation at Tulane and Xavier; Joan Leitzel, president emeritus of the University of New Hampshire; Carolyn Mahoney, president of Lincoln University; Johanna Levelt Sengers, National Institute of Standards and Technology; and myself.
