Transnational Mathematics and Movements: Shiing- Shen Chern, Hua Luogeng, and the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study from World War II to the Cold War1
Chinese Annals of History of Science and Technology 3 (2), 118–165 (2019) doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1461.2019.02118 Transnational Mathematics and Movements: Shiing- shen Chern, Hua Luogeng, and the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study from World War II to the Cold War1 Zuoyue Wang 王作跃,2 Guo Jinhai 郭金海3 (California State Polytechnic University, Pomona 91768, US; Institute for the History of Natural Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China) Abstract: This paper reconstructs, based on American and Chinese primary sources, the visits of Chinese mathematicians Shiing-shen Chern 陈省身 (Chen Xingshen) and Hua Luogeng 华罗庚 (Loo-Keng Hua)4 to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton in the United States in the 1940s, especially their interactions with Oswald Veblen and Hermann Weyl, two leading mathematicians at the IAS. It argues that Chern’s and Hua’s motivations and choices in regard to their transnational movements between China and the US were more nuanced and multifaceted than what is presented in existing accounts, and that socio-political factors combined with professional-personal ones to shape their decisions. The paper further uses their experiences to demonstrate the importance of transnational scientific interactions for the development of science in China, the US, and elsewhere in the twentieth century. Keywords: Shiing-shen Chern, Chen Xingshen, Hua Luogeng, Loo-Keng Hua, Institute for 1 This article was copy-edited by Charlie Zaharoff. 2 Research interests: History of science and technology in the United States, China, and transnational contexts in the twentieth century. He is currently writing a book on the history of American-educated Chinese scientists and China-US scientific relations. -

Super Fight League Invades America October 4Th – Asia’S
Super Fight League Invades America October 4th – Asia’s Largest MMA Promotion Partners up with CageSport Seattle, WA (August 27, 2014) — Super Fight League, Asia’s leader in MMA today announced their expansion and accelerated the growth of the Super Fight League brand in North America. The new venture will be named Super Fight League America in partnership with Brian Halquist Productions, Inc. and AEUTV, LLC and will be funded through a partnership created by all entities. The new venture will kick off on October 4, 2014 at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, Washington. The principals will provide enhanced marketing, sales and television production as they build a new series of MMA fights rolling out in 2014. The venture will produce world class MMA entertainment to be distributed via broadcast and new media platforms. “We are very excited to partner with Super Fight League. There are few if any MMA brands in Asia more respected than Super Fight League as they conquered the largest media market in the world and proved they had both vision and expertise. We are proud to be able to align with them on this new venture, which we think will take their core business built in Asia and expand it exponentially on a global basis, starting in the USA,” said Brian Halquist, President of Brian Halquist Productions. “Brian’s long term relationship as a fight promoter with the Emerald Queen was proof positive that we had found the right partner with our growth plan in the USA. The fact that he has had an 18 year history, the longest running combat program with any casino in North America, showed us not only his savvy business acumen but also the stability and trust he has garnered in the market as a world class promoter. -
Cubed Circle Newsletter 227 – We're Late, Just Like Gawker Media (RIP)
Cubed Circle Newsletter 227 – We're Late, Just Like Gawker Media (RIP) We are back with a very late newsletter this week due almost entirely to lab report related delays. However, there is still a lot to discuss in this week's issue, including all of the news with Sting's retirement, upcoming cards, the “conclusion” to the Gawker trial, which is really only the beginning – and much more in the Pro-Wres Digest with Ben Carass. Plus, the Mixed Bag returns with a look at what may very well have been the best match of the year up until this point, discussion of WWE aesthetics, ROH, and must see BASARA. Ben also looks at last week's edition of RAW, Roadblock, and Mid-South from '82 with the infamous airing of the first Kamala vignette on Mid-South TV through 2016 eyes! – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for March 13th – March 19th. Ben Carass. [EDITOR'S NOTE: This report was left unedited and was intended to have been posted on March 20th, as such, some of the information may be out of date, and further information may be available for some stories.] TMZ broke the story on 17/3 that Steve “Sting” Borden's wrestling career is officially over, with the typically classy headline, “Sting Retiring from Wrestling...Neck's Too Jacked Up,” - quality journalism. Sting had not wrestled since facing Seth Rollins for the WWE title at Night of Champions on September 20th 2015 in a match where he suffered a neck injury while taking a Powerbomb into the turnbuckle. -
