    Extractions: The Woman Behind the Matrix: Olga Taussky-Todd By: Michelle Harrity Brewer Introduction In the fall of 1999, I participated in Women in Mathematics, a class taught at Appalachian State University by Dr. Sarah Greenwald. We took a comprehensive look of the role of women in the history of mathematics. We analyzed gender and equity issues, and how they play out in the classroom. Women are the unheard voice of history. Today, they are still unequally represented in the public realm, especially in the field of mathematics. This paper, and those of my colleagues, is one effort to bridge the gap. One such notable woman is Olga Taussky-Todd. At an early age, she fought for an education when most women were being kept silent and at home. Mathematics paid her way through life, brought her to her husband, and sent her around the world and back. She made a lasting effect in the field of matrix theory and number theory. Her work led her to help in the war effort, and to inspire a generation of students. Olga said that there was one thing that sparked her interest in math and kept it there, the interconnectedness of numbers. She still connects us today. Biographical Information

    Extractions: Women of Mathematics Once again this term I hope to motivate and enlighten you with the tales of women mathematicians. We begin this term's series on a positive note. The story of Olga Taussky-Todd is not one of discrimination and sexism, but of a brilliant woman whose life was filled with inspired mathematics, and wonderful collaborations. Taussky contributed to many areas of number theory and matrix theory, and did much fundamental work on Hilbert's 19th problem on sums of squares. Based on this thesis she was invited to Gottingen to edit Hilbert's work. While at Gottingen she was kept busy with teaching duties. She was able to work with many mathematicians here, including Emmy Noether. Political tensions arose around this time, and like many other Jewish intellectuals, she left Germany. She returned to Vienna briefly to work again with Hahn and Menger, and subsequently worked briefly at Bryn Mawr College. There she was reunited with Emmy Noether. In 1935 she returned to Europe as part of a science fellowship. However, no one shared her interests at Girton College Cambridge. The female head of Girton college insisted that students avoid working under Taussky. In her opinion, it would be damaging to their career to have a woman supervisor. Two years later she succeeded in obtaining a junior level teaching position at Westfield College. It was there that she began a collaborative relationship with John Todd. They were married in 1938. In 1943 Taussky took on a research position in aerodynamics with the Ministry of Aircraft production in the ``Flutter Group'' at the National Physical Laboratory. The problem reduced to stability problems of a certain matrix. It was there that Taussky developed interest in matrix theory. In 1947 she and her husband accepted positions at the National Bureau of Standards in the United States. During this time she wrote several papers and lectured at Caltech.

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS Question 1 Olga Taussky was born in 1906 in the present day Czech Republic. Her family placed great value in her education and that of her two sisters. Olga's father wished that his daughters would follow artistic careers. Olga excelled in essay writing, grammar, music composition and in her free time she wrote poetry. Eventually all three girls ended up in science. Olga's direction in mathematics was beginning to take form in her high school years. She remembers a significant moment during a conversation with a family friend - a woman much older than Olga - who had hoped to study mathematics: "That was more than I could take. In a flash I saw myself decades older saying exactly the same words to a young woman. It seemed unbearable."

Der Wiener Kreis Der Wiener Kreis, eine Gruppe von rund drei Dutzend WissenschaftlerInnen aus den Bereichen der Philosophie, Logik, Mathematik, Natur- und Sozialwissenschaften im Wien der Zwischenkriegszeit, zaehlt unbestritten zu den bedeutendsten und einflussreichsten philosophischen Stroemungen des 20. Jahrhunderts, speziell als Wegbereiter der (sprach)analytischen Philosophie und Wissenschaftstheorie. Den Kern dieser modernistischen Bewegung, die im Jahre 1929 erstmals mit der Programmschrift 'Wissenschaftliche Weltauffassung. Der Wiener Kreis' in die Oeffentlichkeit getreten war, bildete der sogenannte "Schlick-Zirkel" um den Wiener Philosophie-Ordinarius Moritz Schlick, der im Jahre 1936 auf der Wiener Universitaet von einem Studenten ermordet worden ist. Zu diesem inneren Kreis zaehlten vor allem Friedrich Waismann, Herbert Feigl, Rudolf Carnap, Hans Hahn, Philipp Frank, Otto Neurath, Viktor Kraft, Karl Menger, Kurt Goedel und Edgar Zilsel. An den Treffen in der Boltzmanngasse nahmen u.a. Olga Taussky-Todd, Olga Hahn-Neurath, Felix Kaufmann, Rose Rand, Gustav Bergmann, Richard von Mises teil, sowie sporadisch auch Hans Reichenbach, Alfred Jules Ayer, Ernest Nagel, John von Neumann, Willard Van Orman Quine oder Alfred Tarski. An der Peripherie des Wiener Kreises pflegten Ludwig Wittgenstein, Karl R. Popper sowie Heinrich Gomperz Kontakte zum Wiener Kreis. Gemeinsames Ziel dieses aufklaererischen und pluralistischen Diskussionszirkels war eine Verwissenschaftlichung der Philosophie mit Hilfe der modernen Logik auf der Basis von Alltagserfahrung und einzelwissenschaftlicher Empirie. Diese vielfaeltige Gesamtbewegung des Logischen Empirismus spiegelt sich auch in den einschlaegigen gemeinsamen Publikationen: in einer eigenen Zeitschrift 'Erkenntnis' (ab 1937 als 'Journal of Unified Science'), in den beiden Publikationsreihen 'Schriften zur wissenschaftlichen Weltauffassung' und 'Einheitswissenschaft', sowie in der bereits im Exil von Otto Neurath, Rudolf Carnap und Charles Morris herausgegebenen 'International Encyclopedia of Unified Science'. Vor dem Hintergrund dieser geistigen Erfolgsgeschichte ist das Schicksal des Wiener Kreises umso tragischer und bedauerlicher: grossteils aus sogenannt "rassischen" und/oder politisch-weltanschaulichen, schliesslich aus theoretischen Gruenden begann die gewaltsame Vertreibung und Aufloesung des Wiener Kreises - parallel zu seiner Internationalisierung - bereits seit Beginn der 1930er Jahre, speziell nach der Ausschaltung der Demokratie 1933/34 und vor allem nach dem "Anschluss" 1938. Waehrend der Logische Empirismus nach dem 2. Weltkrieg vor allem im angloamerikanischen und skandinavischen Raum eine breite Aufnahme erlebte und zur Herausbildung der modernen Wissenschaftstheorie bis hin zur Semiotik beitrug, war die philosophische und mathematische Landschaft in Deutschland und Oesterreich nach 1945 eher durch eine Verlaengerung der durch Emigration und Exil geschaffenen Zaesur gekennzeichnet. 2. Das 'Institut Wiener Kreis' Das internationale Institut 'Wiener Kreis', ein im Oktober 1991 gegruendeter gemeinnuetziger, nicht auf Gewinn ausgerichteter ueberparteilicher Verein, bezweckt sowohl die bislang vernachlaessigte Dokumentation und Weiterentwicklung von Werk und Wirkung des Wiener Kreises im Bereich der Wissenschaft und Volksbildung, als auch die aktuelle Pflege und Anwendung logisch-empirischen, kritisch-rationalen und sprachanalytischen Denkens und Handelns zum Aufbau einer wissenschaftlichen Philosophie und Weltauffassung in Verbindung mit allgemein soziokulturellen Stroemungen. Ein wesentliches Ziel dieser Bemuehungen ist die Demokratisierung von Wissen und Wissenschaft als Aufklaerungsarbeit wider jeden Irrationalismus, Dogmatismus und Fundamentalismus im gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhang und in Uebereinstimmung mit dem letzten Stand internationaler Forschung. 3. Ziele und Aufgaben * Aktivitaeten im Hochschulbereich (Lehrveranstaltungen, Gastprofessuren, Vortragsreihen), im Bereich der Erwachsenenbildung (Fort- und Weiterbildung fuer Mitarbeiter, Studienmaterialien) und in der Schule (Lehrerfortbildung, Unterrichtsmaterialien). * Organisation, Veranstaltung und Betreuung einschlaegiger oeffentlicher Forschungsgespraeche, Tagungen, Symposien, Ausstellungen oder Film/TV/Radio-Produktionen. * Errichtung einer oeffentlichen Service- und Forschungsstelle fuer in- und auslaendische Interessenten. * Dokumentation von Nachlaessen: Wiener Kreis-Mitglieder und Peripherie (Kopien, Mikrofilme, Nachlassverzeichnis). * Dokumentation von audiovisuellem Material: Mediathek (TV, Film, Radio, Bildmaterial) * Betreuung bzw.

Address 1. The Vienna Circle The Vienna Circle, a group of about three dozen scientists in Vienna who worked in the areas of philosophy, logic, mathematics, the natural and social sciences, pioneered in the development of analytic (linguistic) philosophy and philosophy of science and may be counted among the most important and most influential trends of thought in the twentieth century. This modernistic movement first became known to the public in 1929 with the publication of a manifesto entitled 'The Scientific World View. The Vienna Circle'. Its core was the so-called 'Schlick Circle' centered around Moritz Schlick, a professor of philosophy at the University of Vienna, who was murdered there in 1936 by a student. This core contained in particular Friedrich Waismann, Herbert Feigl, Rudolf Carnap, Hans Hahn, Philipp Frank, Otto Neurath, Viktor Kraft, Karl Menger, Kurt Goedel and Edgar Zilsel. At the meetings in Boltzmanngasse, Olga Taussky-Todd, Olga Hahn-Neurath, Felix Kaufmann, Rose Rand, Gustav Bergmann amd Richard von Mises took part, and in addition, foreign guests, some of them well-known today, such as Hans Reichenbach, Carl G. Hempel, Alfred Jules Ayer, Ernest Nagel, John von Neumann, Willard Van Orman Quine and Alfred Tarski attended now and then. At the periphery of the Vienna Circle flourished contacts with Ludwig Wittgenstein, Karl R. Popper and Heinrich Gomperz. A central goal of this discussion group was to advance the principles of the Enlightenment and of pluralism by discussion philosophical issues in a scientific way with the help of modern logic on the basis of common-sense knowledge and the empirical sciences. The manifold movement of logical empiricism is mirrored in the publications it produced, particularly 'Erkenntnis' (after 1937 published in Holland under the title 'Journal of Unified Science') and two series: 'Schriften zur Wissenschaftlichen Weltauffassung', and 'Einheitswissenschaft', and the 'International Encyclopedia of Unified Science', edited by Otto Neurath, Rudolf Carnap (both already in exile) and Charles Morris. Compared to the picture of its intellectual successes, the actual human fate of the Vienna Circle is all the more tragic and regrettable. Motivated by racism and politics, and lastly also by obscurantist theories, the forcible dissolution and expulsion of the Vienna Circle began already in the early thirties - simultaneous to its internationalization -, in particular after the disbanding of democratic institutions after 1933 and 1934, and then with real vengeance after the 'Anschluss' of March 1938. Whereas logical empiricism received a warm welcome in the English-speaking world and in Scandinavia, leading to the widespread development of modern philosophy of science and in the direction of semiotics, the philosophical and mathematical landscape in Austria long into the period after 1945 was characterized by a kind of restauration, rather than by any sort of re-immigration. 2. The Institute Vienna Circle The international 'Institute Vienna Circle', a nonprofit society founded in Vienna in October 1991, sets as its goals, firstly, the documentation and furtherance of the contributions and development of the 'Vienna Circle' in the areas of science and adult education; and secondly the cultivation and application of logical empiricism, critical rationalism and linguistic analysis in the sense of a scientific philosophy and coordinated with general socio-cultural developments. An essential goal of this effort is the democratization of knowledge and of science understood as a process of enlightment in contrast to irrationalism, dogmatism and fundamentalism in any social setting, but in cooperation with developments of research. 3. Goals and Aims * The initiation and organization or holding of various activities at universities (holding courses, inviting guest professors, presenting lecture series), in the area of adult education (continuing education of co-workers, development of study material), and in school education (continuing education of teachers, preparation of course material). * The organization and holding of correlated public research discussions, conferences, symposia, exhibitions as well as film, radio and TV productions. * The establishment of a publicly accessible service and research facility for foreign and domestic interested parties. * Catalogization and documentation of the literary estates of members of the Vienna Circle, its predecessors and periphery in the form of photocopies, microfilms and catalogs of papers. * Documentation of audiovisual material, mediatheque (including material for film, video, radio and photography). * The preparation and editing of publications (original research, reprints, translations), e.g. biographical works and monographs on the Vienna Circle and its influence, including even complete editions of members of the Vienna Circle. Included here are the publication of regular newsletters, an international Yearbook and a book series of the 'Institute Vienna Circle'. * The establishment of a research library on the Vienna Circle. 4.

    Extractions: The Hilbert-Polya Conjecture says that the Riemann Hypothesis is true because non-trivial zeros of the zeta function correspond (in a certain canonical way) to the eigenvalues of some positive operator. This conjecture is often regarded as the most promising way to prove the Riemann Hypothesis. Very little is known about its origins. Mathematical folk wisdom has usually attributed its formulation to Hilbert and Polya, independently, some time in the 1910s. However, there appears to be no published mention of it before Hugh Montgomery's 1973 paper on the pair correlation of zeros of the zeta function. Enclosed here are copies of some letters that attempted to trace the history of the Hilbert-Polya Conjecture. The first letter from Polya appears to present the only documented evidence about the origins of the conjecture. Correspondence with George Polya: The two letters by Polya (1887-1985) were written when he was 94. According to N. G. de Bruijn, at that stage in his life, Polya usually dictated letters to his wife, and only signed them himself. The fact that he wrote both letters out in his own handwriting suggests he was very interested in the subject. The account of the formulation of the conjecture in the first letter is consistent with what Polya had told Dennis Hejhal in a personal conversation. Andrew Odlyzko to George Polya, December 8, 1981
