AWM Novdec 2006 Volume 36, Number 6 NEWSLETTER November–December 2006 President’s Report Congratulations to Our Authors We learned at press time that Complexities: Women in Mathematics, edited by Anne M. Leggett and Bettye Anne Case, has won one of four 2006 Book Awards sponsored by Alpha Sigma Nu and the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universi- ties. The books were judged on the basis of “scholarship, significance of topic to scholars across several disciplines, authority in interpretation, objectivity, presenta- tion, and style,”and theirs was the winning entry in Mathematics and Computer Science. Congratulations, Anne and Bettye Anne (and Vickie and everyone who helped with the conception and execution of this project)! IN THIS ISSUE Women Doing Mathematics Internationally 5 Letter to the Editor This has been a busy period, with AWM members traveling east and west and meeting mathematicians—some of them fellow AWM members—from all over the 8 Book Review world. It has also been a period to work on several projects with our companion society, EWM (European Women in Mathematics). 10 AWM at MathFest 2006 For me, the summer tour began with an unexpected chance to be a member of 15 Happy 100th Birthday! the Canadian delegation to the IMU’s General Assembly in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. (There was a last-minute emergency for one of the Canadian delegates, and 24 AWM in New Orleans he could not make the trip.) The General Assembly is the amazing event, both very formal and delightfully collegial, by which the international community, in the form of the IMU, governs itself. Of course, the IMU does not make the rules by which most of us live our professional lives: it does not set salaries or promotion guidelines for universities, and it does not even have much to say about how jour- nals make their editorial decisions. But it runs the International Congress, chooses the winners of the Fields Medal, and, increasingly, voices the concerns of the world- wide mathematical community. At this meeting, those concerns included electronic A W M communication and digitization of the mathematical archive, capacity-build- ing in developing countries, an interest in mathematics education, and—yes— the status of women. The new Executive Committee (the powerful governing body of the IMU) will have two women among its ten members. Ragni Piene, an algebraic geometer from Norway, serving her second term, is now joined by Cheryl Prager, an algebraist from Australia. Surely this is the first time there have been two women on the EC. The General Assembly also approved a set of The purpose of the Association for Women in guidelines for choosing speakers for the ICM that mentions the Emmy Noether Mathematics is lecture, currently institutionalized in the organization of the Congress.

  • Pi Mu Epsilon Mathematical Association of America
    Pi Mu Epsilon Pi Mu Epsilon is a national mathematics honor society with 401 chapters throughout the nation. Established in 1914, Pi Mu Epsilon is a non-secret organization whose purpose is the promotion of scholarly activity in mathematics among students in academic institutions. It seeks to do this by electing members on an honorary basis according to their proficiency in mathematics and by engaging in activities designed to provide for the mathematical and scholarly development of its members. Pi Mu Epsilon regularly engages students in scholarly activity through its Journal which has published student and faculty articles since 1949. Pi Mu Epsilon encourages scholarly activity in its chapters with grants to support mathematics contests and regional meetings established by the chapters and through its Lectureship program that funds Councillors to visit chapters. Since 1952, Pi Mu Epsilon has been holding its annual National Meeting with sessions for student papers in conjunction with the summer meetings of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA). Mathematical Association of America The Mathematical Association of America (MAA) is the world’s largest community of mathematicians, students, and enthusiasts. Our mission is to advance the understanding of mathematics and its impact on our world. MAA supports undergraduate students through with opportunities to present your work and attend talks at national and section meetings, through the Putnam Mathematical Competition, and through quality publications such as Math Horizons magazine, our three math journals, and titles from MAA Press. Students can join the MAA directly as a student member at maa.org/join or through their math department if their college or university is an MAA Departmental Member—ask your math faculty members to find out if your school has an MAA Departmental Membership! Schedule of Student Activities Unless otherwise noted, all events are held in the Duke Energy Convention Center.

  • ICIAM Prizes 2007 by Ian Sloan, Chair of the Prize Committee
    Presentation of the ICIAM Prizes 2007 by Ian Sloan, Chair of the Prize Committee Five prizes are awarded, in connection with the ICIAM Congresses1. Prize winners are selected by the ICIAM Prize Committee. For 2007 this committee was chaired by Ian Sloan (The University of New South Wales, Australia), who was President of ICIAM at that time. The other members of the committee were: • Li Da-Qian (Fudan University, China); • Joyce McLaughlin (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, USA); • Volker Mehrmann (Technische Universit¨atBerlin, Germany); • Mario Primicerio (Universit`adegli Studi di Firenze, Italy); • Juan Luis Vazquez (Universidad Complutense Madrid, Spain). Each prize has its own subcommittee, chaired by one member of the Prize Committee. These subcommittees work independently, but the final decision is made by the Prize Committee as a whole. Members of subcommittees are made public at the time the prize winners are announced; these are listed below, along with the prize specifications and recipient. The Prizes were presented by the President of ICIAM, Ian Sloan. ICIAM Pioneer Prize This prize is funded by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM). It was established for pioneering work in introducing applied mathematical meth- ods and scientific computing techniques to an industrial problem area or a new scientific field of applications. The prize commemorates the spirit and impact of the American pioneers. Two ICIAM Pioneer Prizes are awarded in 2007. Since the chair of the ICIAM Pioneer Prize subcommittee, Joyce McLaughlin, could not attend the ceremony the President of SIAM, Cleve Moler, presented the Prize Winners and the appre- ciations. 1Four prizes were awarded for the first time at ICIAM’99, held in Edinburgh.
