Extractions: Wikipedia Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics which, as the name suggests, combines abstract algebra , especially commutative algebra , with geometry . It can be seen as the study of solution sets of systems of algebraic equations . When there is more than one variable, geometric considerations enter, and are important to understand the phenomenon. One can say that the subject starts where equation solving leaves off, and it becomes at least as important to understand the totality of solutions of a system of equations as to find some solution; this does lead into some of the deepest waters in the whole of mathematics, both conceptually and in terms of technique. Table of contents showTocToggle("show","hide") 1 Zeroes of simultaneous polynomials 8 External references In classical algebraic geometry, the main objects of interest are the vanishing sets of collections of polynomials , meaning the set of all points that simultaneously satisfy one or more polynomial equations. For instance, the two-dimensional sphere in three-dimensional Euclidean space R could be defined as the set of all points ( x y z ) with A "slanted" circle in R can be defined as the set of all points ( x y z ) which satisfy the two polynomial equations First we start with a field k . In classical algebraic geometry, this field was always

This Week in History Alexander Grothendieck (born March 28 in Berlin), is one of the leading mathematicians of the twentieth century, with major contributions to algebraic geometry homological algebra , and functional analysis . He was awarded the Fields Medal in 1966 and coawarded the Crafoord Prize with Pierre Deligne in . He declined the latter prize on ethical grounds.

Grothendieck took them to a higher level, changing the tools and the level of abstraction. Amongst his insights, he shifted attention from the study of individual varieties to the relative point of view (pairs of varieties related by a morphism ), allowing a broad generalization of many classical theorems. This he applied first to the

Extractions: March 7th-17th,2001 Fufilling a promise made 6 years earlier, Ferment's editor boarded a TWA plane for Paris on the evening of March 7th,2001, to attend the first meeting of a committee that has been set up to make the life and works of the great mathematician, Alexandre Grothendieck( Alexandre will often be referred to as "AG" ) better known to the scientific world and the general public. In 1994 I'd done some fund-raising for a project of a more limited scope: finding him.My last visit to him was in 1990. Around 1993 he disappeared from the little village in the Vaucluse where he's been hiding out to an unknown location. So jealous was he of his privacy that it appears that even his son, then studying mathematics at Harvard and recipient of a regular stipend from AG's bank, was not informed of his whereabouts. This project was not without controversy, given that most of us agree that people who sincerely want to be left alone should have a right to be so. Sincerity is the key, and it appears with respect to this attribute AG does not have a good record. Given AG's extreme mental state, which fluctuated on insanity, his importance to modern science ( like it or not, he is a very public figure) and his own ruthlessness in violating the privacy of almost all his colleagues through the publication of a memoir

We present a commutative algebra/algebraic geometric explanation of the naturality of flagged tableaux (multi-Schur) formulae for the multidegrees of ladder determinantal varieties. We also obtain Hilbert series for these varieties, in terms of Buch's set-valued tableaux. These are based on a general Grobner basis result describing "geometric vertex decompositions" which allows us to deduce a diagonal term order Grobner bases for the defining ideal. This provides a flat degeneration to a reduced union of coordinate subspaces defined by the (squarefree) initial ideal. Tableaux then naturally arise in terms of facets of the Stanley-Reisner complex of this initial ideal.

Extractions: 1. According to the obituary notice for Jesse Douglas published in the October 8, 1965 edition of The New York Herald Tribune , he died at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan and his funeral was held the following day at the "The Riverside" (the largest Jewish funeral chapel in New York City). Douglas, who was the first recipient of a Fields Medal, was born in New York City and educated at the City College of New York and at Columbia University. His entry in the 1964-1965 edition of Marquis Who's Who in America indicates that his mother's maiden name was Sarah Kommel. The name "Kommel" is most frequently found among Jews originating in the Pale of Settlement (either as a variant spelling of the Jewish name "Kimmel," or as a habitation name associated with the city of Gomel in the Eastern Pale). The death notice lists a brother, Dr. Harold Douglas, and a sister, Pearl Schweizer, as survivors. According to the 1980-1981 Manhattan phone directory (white pages), Harold Douglas maintained medical offices at Beth Israel Medical Center in lower Manhattan. (Although "Douglas" is not a Jewish name, it is occasionally used as an anglicized version of various Jewish names such as "Dolgoff" or "Toklas.")

Extractions: Below is a list of papers, books about which I have some mathematical interest and may contain material which would be suitable for an honours thesis. The most important thing for you to do is to determine if there's something here that seems interesting to you. Don't worry if it seems too advanced. We can work that out later. I should warn you that some of the sources below I don't know so well and would like you to teach me about them! Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry This is my main field of research. It's interesting stuff but not for the faint of heart. In first year algebra, you learn how linear geometry sheds light on linear algebra. Intersections of hyperplanes gives a geometric interpretation of solutions to linear equations. More generally, geometric ideas can be used to understand commutative algebra. In the past two decades, it has become increasingly clear that generalisations of these geometric ideas can also be used to analyse noncommutative algebra giving rise to the exciting new field of noncommutative algebraic geometry.

Extractions: Reminiscências pessoais de minha atuação enquanto Presidente do Comitê Interamericano de Educação Matemática/CIAEM. Ubiratan DAmbrosio Farei primeiramente um relato dos anos que precederam minha entrada como participante ativo do Comitê Interamericano de Educação Matemática e depois como seu Presidente, de 1979 a 1987. Não se trata de uma história do CIAEM nem de minha atuação na presidência da organização. Essas são memórias pessoais, algumas com, aparentemente, pouca relação com as atividades do CIAEM. Efetivamente todas as atividades que relato a seguir foram facilitadas pela minha posição de Presidente do CIAEM e, inegavelmente, trouxeram benefícios para minha atuação nessa função. O CIAEM/Comitê Interamericano de Educação Matemática foi fundado em 1961, por iniciativa de Marshall Stone, então Presidente do ICMI (International Comittee of Mathematical Instruction). Uma história do CIAEM foi recentemente publicada, numa edição bilíngüe: La História Del Comitê Interamericano de Educación Matemática/The History of the Inter-American Committee on Mathematical Education, de autoria de Hugo Barrantes e Angel Ruiz [Academia Colombiana de Ciências Exactas, Físicas y Naturales, Bogotá, 1998]. Vejo como as principais razões para a criação do CIAEM a intenção de regionalizar as discussões sobre Educação Matemática e, ao mesmo tempo, dar uma maior presença dos Estados Unidos na América Latina. A UNESCO havia aberto uma Oficina Regional de Ciências e Tecnologia para a América Latina e Caribe (ORCTALC), em Montevidéu, e a Organização dos Estados Americanos (OEA) procurava expandir seus programas. Ao mesmo tempo foram criados Comitês Interamericanos de Educação em Biologia, em Física e em Química. Parece que esses últimos tiveram vida curta.
