  • Saul Abarbanel SIAM Oral History
    An interview with SAUL ABARBANEL Conducted by Philip Davis on 29 July, 2003, at the Department of Applied Mathematics, Brown University Interview conducted by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, as part of grant # DE-FG02-01ER25547 awarded by the US Department of Energy. Transcript and original tapes donated to the Computer History Museum by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics © Computer History Museum Mountain View, California ABSTRACT: ABARBANEL describes his work in numerical analysis, his use of early computers, and his work with a variety of colleagues in applied mathematics. Abarbanel was born and did his early schooling in Tel Aviv, Israel, and in high school developed an interest in mathematics. After serving in the Israeli army, Abarbanel entered MIT in 1950 as an as an engineering major and took courses with Adolf Hurwitz, Francis Begnaud Hildebrand, and Philip Franklin. He found himself increasing drawn to applied mathematics, however, and by the time he began work on his Ph.D. at MIT he had switched from aeronautics to applied mathematics under the tutelage of Norman Levinson. Abarbanel recalls the frustration of dropping the punch cards for his program for the IBM 1604 that MIT was using in 1958 when he was working on his dissertation, but also notes that this work convinced him of the importance of computers. Abarbanel also relates a humorous story about Norbert Weiner, his famed linguistic aptitude, and his lesser-known interest in chess. Three years after receiving his Ph.D., Abarbanel returned to Israel, where he spent the rest of his career at Tel Aviv University.
