Thabit ibn Qurra was a native of Harran and a member of the Sabian sect. The Sabian religious sect were star worshippers from Harran often confused with the Mandaeans (as they are in [1]). Of course being worshipers of the stars meant that there was strong motivation for the study of astronomy and the sect produced many quality astronomers and mathematicians. The sect, with strong Greek connections, had in earlier times adopted Greek culture, and it was common for members to speak Greek although after the conquest of the Sabians by Islam, they became Arabic speakers. There was another language spoken in southeastern Turkey, namely Syriac, which was based on the East Aramaic dialect of Edessa. This language was Thabit ibn Qurra's native language, but he was fluent in both Greek and Arabic. Some accounts say that Thabit was a money changer as a young man. This is quite possible but some historians do not agree. Certainly he inherited a large family fortune and must have come from a family of high standing in the community.

    Well somehow, through the ether, you have discovered my home-page. Feel free to browse around, there is not much here at the moment... that's not to say that one day there will be something here! What is here is mostly for my benefit, not yours. :p However, since you came all this way, let me tell you a bit about myself: I am a pure mathematician, more specifically, I am an arithmetic geometer, well, more truthfully, a budding arithmetic geometer. I am Australian. I was born in Cambridge, UK. I grew up in Hobart, Tasmania (Australia). I completed my undergraduate studies in mathematics at the University of Melbourne. After which I did a Master's degree (in mathematics, of course) at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. I am now a first year PhD student in mathematics at Princeton University, Princeton, NJ, USA. My avocation from number theory is progressive DJing. Sooner or later I'll include some streams and pictures of my DJing exploits. I'm also an avid weightlifter, and I enjoy doing various martial arts: Tae Kwon-Do, Kung-Fu, and I dabble in Brazilian Jui Jitsu. Though various injuries have prevented me from doing so for a while.

    Don Zagier (MPI, Bonn)
    Organizing committee:
    Sponsors:
    Program: The summer school is particularly aimed at students in number theory, algebra and algebraic geometry.
    The course will consist of three intertwined lecture series, "Elliptic modular forms and their applications" (Don Zagier)
    "Hilbert modular forms and their applications" (Jan Bruinier)
    "Siegel modular forms and their applications" (Gerard van der Geer) The first of these will treat the classical one-variable theory and some of its many applications in number theory (representations of numbers by quadratic forms, irrationality and transcendence results, moments of periodic functions, ...), algebraic geometry (counting of coverings of curves), and mathematical physics (appearance of modular forms in percolation theory, string theory, etc.) The second, which has a more geometric flavor, will give an introduction to the theory of Hilbert modular forms in two variables (i.e., over real quadratic fields), the geometry of Hilbert modular surfaces, and to Borcherds products and the Borcherds lifting. The third will give an introduction to Siegel modular forms (both scalar- and vector-valued) and present a beautiful application to the theory of curves of finite fields (Harder's conjecture).

    ] (2,945,143 bytes) The aim of this book is threefold: First it should be a monographical work on natural bundles and natural operators in differential geometry. This is a field which every differential geometer has met several times, but which is not treated in detail in one place. Let us explain a little, what we mean by naturality.
    Second this book tries to be a rather comprehensive textbook on all basic structures from the theory of jets which appear in different branches of differential geometry. Even though Ehresmann in his original papers from 1951 underlined the conceptual meaning of the notion of an $r$-jet for differential geometry, jets have been mostly used as a purely technical tool in certain problems in the theory of systems of partial differential equations, in singularity theory, in variational calculus and in higher order mechanics. But the theory of natural bundles and natural operators clarifies once again that jets are one of the fundamental concepts in differential geometry, so that a thorough treatment of their basic properties plays an important role in this book. We also demonstrate that the central concepts from the theory of connections can very conveniently be formulated in terms of jets, and that this formulation gives a very clear and geometric picture of their properties.

    192. Native American Geometry
    A physical, proportional geometry that originates from the simple circle.
    http://www.earthmeasure.com/

    Endorsements
    References Endorsements References N ATIVE AMERICAN GEOMETRY is a physical, proportional geometry that originates from the simple circle. A growing body of architectural and iconographic evidence from Native America suggests it was a relatively common tradition that has been practiced for at least two thousand years. This is the same type of geometry that was discovered and developed by the ancestors of many peoples in many places, from China to the Mediterranean Basin to the British Isles. Currently, it resides among the logo designers of Madison Avenue. Generally, it maintains a similar methodological structure to the Middle Eastern tradition of classical geometry that is limited to operations carried out by the compass and straightedge, or two sticks and a rope. In the anthropological world, there are generally two ways traditions come into being in any particular culture: diffusion or borrowing from another culture; and, independent invention or discovery. Did the geometry have a single source and diffuse around the world over a period of several millennia? Or is there something about it, like stone working techniques, that made it independently accessible to the human mind in diverse cultures and civilizations? Personally, I believe the geometry was discovered independently by widely disparate cultures. Why? Because this type of proportional geometry originates with the circle, one of the most popular and multi-cultural symbols in the human world. It is a shape that served as a foundation for countless domestic and ceremonial structures. Given the intimate relationship between the circle's radius and the hexagon, it is an argument I can live with, for now. This opinion does not exclude instances of cultural diffusion within specific geographic regions.

    194. The Geometry Junkyard: Tilings
    A collection of links.
    http://www.ics.uci.edu/~eppstein/junkyard/tiling.html
    Tiling One way to define a tiling is a partition of an infinite space (usually Euclidean) into pieces having a finite number of distinct shapes. Tilings can be divided into two types, periodic and aperiodic, depending on whether they have any translational symmetries . If these symmetries exist, they form a lattice . However there has been much recent research and excitement on aperiodic tilings (which lack such symmetries) and their possible realization in certain crystal structures. Tilings also have connections to much of pure mathematics including operator K-theory, dynamical systems, and non-commutative geometry.

    Non-perturbative quantum general relativity provides a possible framework to analyze issues related to black hole thermodynamics from a fundamental perspective. A pedagogical account of the recent developments in this area is given. The emphasis is on the conceptual and structural issues rather than technical subtleties. The article is addressed to post-graduate students and beginning researchers.
