Woyczyński Case Western Reserve University Universitext is a series of textbooks that presents material from a wide variety of mathematical disciplines at master’s level and beyond. The books, often well class-tested by their author, may have an informal, personal even experimental approach to their subject matter. Some of the most successful and established books in the series have evolved through several editions, always following the evolution of teaching curricula, into very polished texts. Thus as research topics trickle down into graduate-level teaching, first textbooks written for new, cutting-edge courses may make their way into Universitext.

Friedrichs Type Inequalities in Arbitrary Domains
Friedrichs type inequalities in arbitrary domains Andrea Cianchi Vladimir Maz’ya To Ari Laptev on the occasion of his 70th birthday 1 Introduction Almost one century ago, in his paper [8] on boundary value and eigenvalue problems in the elasticity theory of plates, K.Friedrichs showed that, given a bounded open set Ω R2 satisfying a very mild regularity condition on the boundary ∂Ω, there exists a constant⊂ C = C(Ω) such that u 2 Ω C u 2 Ω + u 2 Ω (1.1) k kL ( ) ≤ k∇ kL ( ) k kL (∂ ) for every sufficiently smooth function u : Ω R. Here, 2 Ω stands for the → k · kL (∂ ) L2-norm on ∂Ω with respect to the (n 1)-dimensional Hausdorff measure. As noticed in the same paper, an application of inequality− (1.1) to the first-order derivatives of u yields 2 u 2 Ω C u 2 Ω + u 2 Ω (1.2) k∇ kL ( ) ≤ k∇ kL ( ) k∇ kL (∂ ) for some constant C = C(Ω). Inequality (1.1) can be regarded as a forerunner of inequalities in Sobolev type spaces involving trace norms over the boundary of the underlying domain. The latter play a role in a variety of problems in the theory of partial differential equations, including the analysis of solutions to elliptic equations subject to Robin boundary conditions. Criteria for the validity of inequalities of the form u Lq (Ω) C u L p (Ω) + C u Lr (∂Ω), (1.3) k k ≤ 1 k∇ k 2 k k A.

Interview with Mikio Sato
Interview with Mikio Sato Mikio Sato is a mathematician of great depth and originality. He was born in Japan in 1928 and re- ceived his Ph.D. from the University of Tokyo in 1963. He was a professor at Osaka University and the University of Tokyo before moving to the Research Institute for Mathematical Sciences (RIMS) at Ky- oto University in 1970. He served as the director of RIMS from 1987 to 1991. He is now a professor emeritus at Kyoto University. Among Sato’s many honors are the Asahi Prize of Science (1969), the Japan Academy Prize (1976), the Person of Cultural Merit Award of the Japanese Education Ministry (1984), the Fujiwara Prize (1987), the Schock Prize of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences (1997), and the Wolf Prize (2003). This interview was conducted in August 1990 by the late Emmanuel Andronikof; a brief account of his life appears in the sidebar. Sato’s contributions to mathematics are described in the article “Mikio Sato, a visionary of mathematics” by Pierre Schapira, in this issue of the Notices. Andronikof prepared the interview transcript, which was edited by Andrea D’Agnolo of the Univer- sità degli Studi di Padova. Masaki Kashiwara of RIMS and Tetsuji Miwa of Kyoto University helped in various ways, including checking the interview text and assembling the list of papers by Sato. The Notices gratefully acknowledges all of these contributions. —Allyn Jackson Learning Mathematics in Post-War Japan When I entered the middle school in Tokyo in Andronikof: What was it like, learning mathemat- 1941, I was already lagging behind: in Japan, the ics in post-war Japan? school year starts in early April, and I was born in Sato: You know, there is a saying that goes like late April 1928. -
