June 18 and 19)- Page 341 Vl 0 ~ Mathematical Society Calendar of AMS Meetings THIS CALENDAR lists all meetings which have been approved by the Council prior to the date this issue of the Notices was sent to press. The summer and annual meetings are joint meetings of the Mathematical Association of America and the Ameri· can Mathematical Society. The meeting dates which fall rather far in the future are subject to change; this is particularly true of meetings to which no numbers have yet been assigned. Programs of the meetings will appear in the issues indicated below. First and second announcements of the meetings will have appeared in earlier issues. ABSTRACTS OF PAPERS presented at a meeting of the Society are published in the journal Abstracts of papers presented to the American Mathematical Society in the issue corresponding to that of the Notices which contains the program of the meet­ ing. Abstracts should be submitted on special forms which are available in many departments of mathematics and from the office of the Society in Providence. Abstracts of papers to be presented at the meeting must be received at the headquarters of the Society in Providence, Rhode Island, on or before the deadline given below for the meeting. Note that the deadline for ab· stracts submitted for consideration for presentation at special sessions is usually three weeks earlier than that specified below. For additional information consult the meeting announcement and the list of organizers of special sessions.

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 a/ways 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 1980, page 378). 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.

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.

Summer List of Applicants, 398, 399 Cryptology and the National Security Agency The National Security Agency has been moving to carry out a recommendation from the Public Cryptography Study Group to institute a system of voluntary prepublication review of certain material of interest to the Agency. (The PCSG report was reprinted in the October 1981 Notices, pages 517 to 526.) The position of the Council in anticipation of a request from the NSA was recorded in the February 1982 Notices on page 213. One aspect of the Council position was that the Notices should publicize, without endorsement, any request by NSA for individuals to participate in the review process. The following letter from the Director of the NSA to the Executive Director of the Society is an invitation to individuals voluntarily to submit papers relating to cryptography to the NSA for security review. National Security Agency Central Security Service Fort George G. Meade, Maryland 20755 Serial: N0463 22 Apr 1982 Dr. William J. LeVeque Executive Director American Mathematical Society P.O. Box 6248 Providence, Rhode Island 02940 Dear Dr. LeVeque: Two years ago at the suggestion of my predecessor Admiral Inman the American Council on Education sponsored, under a grant from the National Science Foundation, a Public Cryptography Study Group (PCSG) to address the concerns of the National Security Agency (NSA) that some information contained in published articles and monographs on cryptography could endanger the mission of NSA and the national security. The PCSG released a report in April 1981 that presents a detailed description of the concerns held by the involved parties. These concerns fall into two major categories-protection of national security and the issues that may affect private-sector research. The report concluded with a statement of recommended guidelines for a voluntary prepublication review program designed to assist authors/researchers and NSA in protecting against the inadvertent disclosure of cryptologic information that would be damaging to national security. NSA has accepted the PCSG guidelines and is moving toward their full implementation. Within this framework, we have developed internal procedures to facilitate timely review of research papers and provide a rapid response to authors. A central point has been established for receipt, staffing and response to authors submitting papers. As we have already received approximately 25 papers, we have been able to test the system. These papers have been reviewed and commented upon within our 30-day target. To date no national security concerns have been raised with any of the papers we have reviewed. If a paper does cause a national security concern, we will communicate directly with the author to make arrangements for a personal discussion of how the paper might be made acceptable to all concerned. We fully expect that we will be able to reach an accord with the author in such a case. However, if not, the author will have an appeal mechanism. Although not yet fully staffed, a five-member Public Cryptography Advisory Committee (PCAC) is being established to serve as the appeal mechanism for authors who choose to use it.

It is reproduced here by permission of the publisher who holds the copyright. © The MIT Press The Church-Turing “ Thesis ” as a Special Corollary of G ö del ’ s 4 Completeness Theorem 1 Saul A. Kripke Traditionally, many writers, following Kleene (1952) , thought of the Church-Turing thesis as unprovable by its nature but having various strong arguments in its favor, including Turing ’ s analysis of human computation. More recently, the beauty, power, and obvious fundamental importance of this analysis — what Turing (1936) calls “ argument I ” — has led some writers to give an almost exclusive emphasis on this argument as the unique justification for the Church-Turing thesis. In this chapter I advocate an alternative justification, essentially presupposed by Turing himself in what he calls “ argument II. ” The idea is that computation is a special form of math- ematical deduction. Assuming the steps of the deduction can be stated in a first- order language, the Church-Turing thesis follows as a special case of G ö del ’ s completeness theorem (first-order algorithm theorem). I propose this idea as an alternative foundation for the Church-Turing thesis, both for human and machine computation. Clearly the relevant assumptions are justified for computations pres- ently known.

    PREFACE Does God Have a Big Toe? (Pages 1 - 13)

    PREFACE Does God have a Big TOE? We are called to be in the world. Not of it. But not out of it, either.1 This book holds the mirror to a single paradox: We must live the historical moment we are in without letting that moment explain us. Christianity must bring to every culture an indigenous faith that is true to its heritage without Christianity’s becoming a culture faith. If every book has one idea, this is it for the one you are reading. The cardinal sin for modernity has been antiintellectualism, a dissenting spirit against celebrating the powers of the mind that has gripped large segments of the Christian church. The sin governing much of the church today may be ahistoricalism or antihistoricalism. Large segments of the Christian community, finding the intellectual and social company of modernism more congenial than that of postmodernism, are in retreat, having disconnected from the unprecedented, restructuring changes taking place all around them. The Christian mind is failing to comprehend the times, our times. The New Light apologetic chronicled in this book is devoted to enfranchising and energizing Christians to connect their faith with the indigenous historical place in which God has chosen them to live. It aims to jolt Christians into a sense of their own time, out of their fashionable out-of-itness. For the God who exists beyond time is the God who lives, moves, and has being in this time. The ultimate hospitality is, then, an entertainment of divine mystery in human life. Benedictine/biblical scholar Demetrius R.

    Topology Proceedings C and C ∗ AMONG INTERMEDIATE RINGS 1

    Submitted to Topology Proceedings C AND C∗ AMONG INTERMEDIATE RINGS JOSHUA SACK AND SALEEM WATSON Abstract. Given a completely regular Hausdorff space X, an in- termediate ring A(X) is a ring of real valued continuous functions between C∗(X) and C(X). We discuss two correspondences be- tween ideals in A(X) and z-filters on X, both reviewing old results and introducing new results. One correspondence, ZA, extends the well-known correspondence between ideals in C∗(X) and z- filters on X. The other, ZA, extends the natural correspondence between ideals in C(X) and z-filters on X. This paper highlights how these correspondences help clarify what properties of C∗(X) and C(X) are shared by all intermediate rings and what properties of C∗(X) and C(X) characterize those rings among intermediate rings. Using these correspondences, we introduce new classes of ideals and filters for each intermediate ring that extend the notion of z-ideals and z-filters for C(X), and with ZA, a new class of filters for each intermediate ring A(X) that extends the notion of e-filter for C∗(X). 1. Introduction Let X be a completely regular topological space, C(X) the ring of all continuous real-valued functions on X, and C∗(X) the ring of bounded continuous real-valued functions on X.

RINGS OF CONTINUOUS FUNCTIONS IN WHICH EVERY FINITELY GENERATED IDEAL IS PRINCIPAL(l) BY LEONARD GILLMAN AND MELVIN HENRIKSEN An abstract ring in which all finitely generated ideals are principal will be called an F-ring. Let C(X) denote the ring of all continuous real-valued func­ tions defined on a completely regular (Hausdorff) space X. This paper is devoted to an investigation of those spaces X for which C(X) is an F-ring. In any such study, one of the problems that arises naturally is to deter­ mine the algebraic properties and implications that result from the fact that the given ring is a ring of functions. Investigation of this problem leads directly to two others: to determine how specified algebraic conditions on the ring are reflected in topological properties of the space, and, conversely, how specified topological conditions on the space are reflected in algebraic prop­ erties of the ring.
