It exploits a new top-down symmetry of derivations made possible by deep inference . We can present deductive systems in the calculus of structures and analyse their properties, as we do in the sequent calculus , natural deduction and proof nets. Typical properties of interest are normalisation and cut elimination The main purpose of our new formalism is to allow a richer combinatorial analysis structures , which are expressions intermediate between formulae and sequents.

    Introduction
    Hermann Grassmann's 1862 Ausdehnungslehre (literally, ``Theory of Extension'') is one of the great mathematical works of the nineteenth century. In it the foundations of linear and multilinear algebra are laid and much of the superstructure too is constructed. It is regrettable that such a book on such a subject should, from the moment of publication, have been not much read. Indeed, Grassmann's reputation for impenetrability has persisted to this day. Yet one may suspect that a writer who is, in many respects, a century ahead of his time will be somewhat more readable when that century has elapsed than he was to his contemporaries. It is my hope that this translation and commentary will make it easy for today's mathematically educated reader to appreciate Grassmann's presentation of the theory of basis and dimension - it does not differ much from the initial chapter of a modern linear algebra text. The work called simply Die Ausdehnungslehre , though its title page bears the date 1862, actually appeared in the latter half of 1861. It was Grassmann's second attempt to present his theory and was totally different in conception from

    Quantum Logic and Probability Theory
    At its core, quantum mechanics can be regarded as a non-classical probability calculus resting upon a non-classical propositional logic. More specifically, in quantum mechanics each probability-bearing proposition of the form "the value of physical quantity A lies in the range B " is represented by a projection operator on a Hilbert space H . These form a non-Boolean in particular, non-distributive orthocomplemented lattice. Quantum-mechanical states correspond exactly to probability measures (suitably defined) on this lattice. What are we to make of this? Some have argued that the empirical success of quantum mechanics calls for a revolution in logic itself. This view is associated with the demand for a realistic interpretation of quantum mechanics, i.e., one not grounded in any primitive notion of measurement. Against this, there is a long tradition of interpreting quantum mechanics operationally, that is, as being precisely a theory of measurement. On this latter view, it is not surprising that a "logic" of measurement-outcomes, in a setting where not all measurements are compatible, should prove not to be Boolean. Rather, the mystery is why it should have the particular non-Boolean structure that it does in quantum mechanics. A substantial literature has grown up around the programme of giving some independent motivation for this structure ideally, by deriving it from more primitive and plausible axioms governing a generalized probability theory.

    An international Algebraic Topology conference is planned for the last week of June 2001 (June 24 - 30, 2001). The conference will take place on the Isle of Skye - a scenic island off the west coast of Scotland. The emphasis of the conference is on categorical decomposition techniques, especially calculus of functors and homology decompositions of classifying spaces. But the conference is intended to have a broad scope, with talks on a variety of topics of current interest in topology. A London Mathematical Society invited lecture series will take place in Aberdeen the week before the conference (June 18 - 23, 2001). Prof. T. Goodwillie will give a series of ten lectures on calculus of functors. Participants who wish to attend both meetings are encouraged to do so and will enjoy reduced registration fees. The following mathematicians have agreed to attend and give a plenary talk.

    Lemon
    A Functional Language with Inductive and Coinductive Types
    The functional language lemon is based on the simply-typed lambda calculus augmented with sums, products, and the mu and nu constructors for least ( inductive ) and greatest ( coinductive ) solutions to recursive type equations. The term constructors of the language strictly follow the introduction and elimination rules for the corresponding types; in particular, the elimination for mu is iteration and the introduction for nu is coiteration (also called generation ). It includes a small amount of polymorphism and type inference; lambda-bound variables do not need type annotations, but iteration and coiteration need to have their corresponding recursive types specified (this is a problem with the language rather than the implementation). For example, the following program generates the stream of Fibonacci numbers starting with 1,1: Using iteration we may define a function which picks off the first n elements of a stream and returns them as a list: We may combine these terms as follows (currently there is syntactic sugar for natural numbers but not for lists; formatting inserted by hand for clarity):

    Research Interests
    I am interested in the application of probability theory techniques to problems arising from communications networks, in particular the Internet. My recent work has focussed on using fluid limits to model the behaviour of various congestion control schemes similar to TCP (Transmission Control Protocol). I have submitted a thesis with the following abstract:
    Fluid Limits for Congestion Control in Networks
    In the Internet, congestion control mechanisms such as TCP are required in order to provide useful services. Propagation delays in the network affect any congestion control scheme, by causing a delay between an action and the controller's reaction, which can lead to undesirable instabilities. This problem is fundamental since, despite the steady increase in speed of networking technologies, the delays imposed by the finite speed of light provide a lower bound on the delays. We should like to understand the dynamical behaviour of the congestion control, for example to determine whether it is stable or not. Working with a model of a network carrying packet traffic, we consider the limit of a sequence of such networks, suitably rescaled, as the bandwidth tends to infinity.

    Topics in Calculus
    Professor Lee Lady
    University of Hawaii
    In my opinion, calculus is one of the major intellectual achievements of Western civilization - in fact of world civilization. Certainly it has had much more impact in shaping our world today than most of the works commonly included in a Western Civilization course books such as Descartes's Discourse on Method or The Prince by Machiavelli. But at most universities, we have taken this magnificent accomplishment of the human intellect and turned it into a boring course. Sawyer's little book What Is Calculus About? (Another book in the same vein, but more recent, is The Hitchhiker's Guide to Calculus by Michael Spivak.) For many of us mathematicians, calculus is far removed from what we see as interesting and important mathematics. It certainly has no obvious relevance to any of my own research, and if it weren't for the fact that I teach it, I would long ago have forgotten all the calculus I ever learned. But we should remember that calculus is not a mere ``service course.'' For students, calculus is the gateway to further mathematics. And aside from our obligation as faculty to make all our courses interesting, we should remember that if calculus doesn't seem like an interesting and worthwhile subject to students, then they are unlikely to see mathematics as an attractive subject to pursue further.

    About Q
    As a practical programming language, Q comes with batteries included : A core set of Q scripts, collectively called the "standard library", implements a lot of useful Q types and functions, such as complex numbers, additional list processing functions, "streams" (a "lazy" variant of lists), container data structures (sets, dictionaries, etc.), the lambda calculus, and even a PostScript interface. Q has its own system module, "clib", which provides access to important system functions, like binary and C-style formatted I/O, Berkeley sockets, process manipulation and regular expression routines. Moreover, the distribution also includes add-on modules for interfacing to various third-party tools and libraries, which makes Q a powerful tool for scientific programming, computer music, multimedia, and other advanced applications. A Q module for the Apache web server is now also available, which enables you to run Q scripts "on the web", too.
