Many of these events of recent months and years have been fomented by internet communities that foster racism, sexism, and white male supremacy. As the work of Safiya Noble details beautifully, tech giants play a major role in the creation, growth, and support of these communities.

  • Leroy P. Steele Prize for Mathematical Exposition 1
    AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY LEROY P. S TEELE PRIZE FOR MATHEMATICAL EXPOSITION The Leroy P. Steele Prizes were established in 1970 in honor of George David Birk- hoff, William Fogg Osgood, and William Caspar Graustein and are endowed under the terms of a bequest from Leroy P. Steele. Prizes are awarded in up to three cate- gories. The following citation describes the award for Mathematical Exposition. Citation John B. Garnett An important development in harmonic analysis was the discovery, by C. Fefferman and E. Stein, in the early seventies, that the space of functions of bounded mean oscillation (BMO) can be realized as the limit of the Hardy spaces Hp as p tends to infinity. A crucial link in their proof is the use of “Carleson measure”—a quadratic norm condition introduced by Carleson in his famous proof of the “Corona” problem in complex analysis. In his book Bounded analytic functions (Pure and Applied Mathematics, 96, Academic Press, Inc. [Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Publishers], New York-London, 1981, xvi+467 pp.), Garnett brings together these far-reaching ideas by adopting the techniques of singular integrals of the Calderón-Zygmund school and combining them with techniques in complex analysis. The book, which covers a wide range of beautiful topics in analysis, is extremely well organized and well written, with elegant, detailed proofs. The book has educated a whole generation of mathematicians with backgrounds in complex analysis and function algebras. It has had a great impact on the early careers of many leading analysts and has been widely adopted as a textbook for graduate courses and learning seminars in both the U.S.

    Annual Report for DMS-0931642 Year 2014-2015 And No-Cost Extension Year 2015-2016 INTRODUCTION The Mathematical Biosciences Institute (MBI) is a multi‐disciplinary initiative that facilitates interaction between the mathematical sciences (which includes mathematics, statistics, and computational science) and the biosciences (which includes the biological sciences, medical sciences, and environmental sciences that relate to the living world). The Institute is devoted to the mathematical biosciences, which includes all areas of research in bioscience where participation of the mathematical sciences will lead to important progress. MBI offers a vigorous program of research and education, and fosters the growth of an international community of researchers in mathematical biology. The mission of MBI is: . To foster innovation in the application of mathematical, statistical, and computational methods in the resolution of significant problems in the biosciences . To foster the development of new areas in the mathematical sciences motivated by important questions in the biosciences . To engage mathematical and biological scientists in these pursuits . To expand the community of scholars in mathematical biosciences through education, training, and support of students and researchers. To support this mission, MBI programs are designed to reinforce and build upon existing research efforts in the mathematical biosciences, and to inspire and accelerate the expansion of the community and its intellectual growth. These include emphasis year programs, current topic workshops, education programs, and research projects. The administrative and governance structure of MBI are designed to support the mission of the Institute. MBI addressed the following scientific challenges in its programming during 2014‐2015: Need to learn the scientist’s language: In order to contribute to the solution of problems in the biosciences, mathematicians and statisticians must first learn some science.

  • Department of Applied Mathematics Annual Report 2010
    Department of Applied Mathematics Annual Report 2010 Department of Applied Mathematics University of Colorado at Boulder Vision The vision of the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Colorado is to be an internationally leading department in Applied Mathematics in research and education. Mission The Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Colorado strives to provide excellent teaching, research, and service to the university community and to the world in the application of mathematics to other disciplines. Objectives The Department of Applied Mathematics has four primary objectives: • To teach our students well; • To seek out and develop new, interesting applications of mathematics in other disciplines; • To provide each student with a rich educational experience; • To create new mathematics. We interpret this to mean: • Provide undergraduate and graduate students with a high quality education and training in applied mathematics and prepare them for careers in government, industry, laboratories, and the academic professions; • Offer and monitor degree programs leading to BS, MS and PhD degrees in Applied Mathematics; • Nourish and maintain a professional environment in which excellence in teaching, learning, scholarship, and creativity are of central importance; • Assure teaching and research expertise in a number of key areas of applied mathematics including the methodology of applied mathematics, computational mathematics and algorithms, industrial applications, applied probability, and statistics. Cover Art Each year, the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Colorado at Boulder creates a t-shirt that illustrates aspects of current research in the department. This year’s design comes from Dr. Keith Julien. Dr. Julien’s research is in the dynamics and instability processes in geophysical and astrophysical fluid dynamics.
