Extractions: Born in Cluj, Transylvania (now Romania, then part of Hungary) in 1902. In 1927, he enrolled in the mathematics department of the University of Vienna, receiving his PhD in 1931. He was one of Karl Menger's students and was quickly introduced to the Viennese banker and economist Karl Schlesinger who, in turn, introduced him to the problems of the sytem of Walras and Cassel being dealt with at the time by the Vienna Colloquium Wald wrote three papers (1935, 1936a,b) on the Walras-Cassel system, employing the important "Duality Principle" and complementary slackness conditions which he (together with Schlesinger ) developed for the Walras-Cassel G.E. system - which did away with the counting-equations- and-unknowns method, but allowed the return of Wieser's imputation theory back into economics and the employment of linear programming. Wald's third paper was particularly important and contributed several factors besides linear programming. Wald's paper was also the first proof of the existence of an equilibrium in a G.E. setting in economics. It also introduced several important concepts: the weak axiom of revealed preference (WARP) - later employed and developed by Paul Samuelson . He also addressed (briefly) the issue of whether it would hold in the aggregate (a question ignored and unanswered until the mid-1970s). He also defined a primitive form of the idea of "gross substitution" and provided a proof of the uniqueness of equilibrium. He also used these tools to tackle the existence of an equilibrium in a

Extractions: History has shaped our past; history will shape our future. Newton once said that he owned his success to his standing on the shoulders of scientific giants. History of statistics provides a ladder by which young statisticians climb to the shoulders of great statisticians. In the uneasy flow of human wisdom, statisticians have developped stochastic models of the ideal probability space, have built different inference bridges for crossing the gap between the data space and the probability space. To trace the development of these different models and of these inference methodologies is to inquire into the fasicnating intellectual tradition of statisticians and to test the null that staticians, together with scientists and engineers from other fields, have built the edifice of our scientific and social worlds.

http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Wald.html

Extractions: Abraham Wald was born into a Jewish family in Hungary. It was a family of intellectuals but, being Jewish, they were forced to earn their living in trades well below their abilities. At this time both primary and secondary schools in Hungary required pupils to attend on Saturdays and the Wald family could not allow their son to attend school on the Jewish Sabbath. As a result Abraham did not attend either primary of secondary school and was educated at home by members of his family. This certainly did not put him at a disadvantage from an educational point of view for his family were very knowledgeable and competent teachers. After World War I much of the land that had been part of Hungary was given to neighbouring countries and at that time Cluj became part of Romania. Wald was allowed to attend the University of Cluj but it appears that this was not made easy for him because he was Jewish. However his outstanding abilities in mathematics led him to wish to continue to undertake mathematical research and in 1927 he entered the University of Vienna to study with Karl Menger . He worked under Menger 's supervision on geometry and was awarded his doctorate in 1931.

http://intranet.woodvillehs.sa.edu.au/pages/resources/maths/History/Wld.htm

Extractions: Previous (Alphabetically) Next Welcome page Abraham Wald was a student of Karl Menger at Vienna and worked in geometry and statistics. His first work was on metric spaces, an extension of Steinitz ' work to infinite dimensional vector spaces, and results on differential geometry. Wald's most important work was in statistics, in particular sequential analysis and the theory of decision functions, topics which were founded by him, and gathered together in Sequential Analysis (1947). He developed generalizations of the problem of gambler's ruin which play an important role in statistical sequential analysis. Wald developed sequential analysis in response to the demand for more efficient methods of industrial quality control during World War II. After the Nazis occupied Austria in 1938 Wald fled to the USA. His family were Jewish and all but one of them died in concentration camps. Wald and his wife were later both killed in a plane crash.

Extractions: The Wald System "Accordingly, to a follower of Menger, the determination of economic equilibrium would not merely involve the determination of the prices of those goods which have prices (as in Walras); it should also involve the determination of which goods are to have prices and which are to be free. The weakness of the Walras-Cassel lies in the implied assumption that the whole amount of each available factor is utilized; once that assumption is dropped, the awkwardness of the construction....can be shown to disappear."

Problems in the Walras-Cassel Model Recall that in the simplest Walras-Cassel system we had the following set of equations: (i) Output market equilibrium: x D p w (ii) Factor market equilibrium: v B x (iii) Price-cost equalities: p Bw If we have n produced goods and m factors, then have n equations in (i), m equations in (ii) and n equations in (iii), but as we can always remove one equation by Walras's Law, then we have a total of 2n+m-1 equations. The unknowns in this system are

Octavo., xii, 212 pp., Sixteen figures, seven tables., Navy cloth with gilt spine., Ink notation on front free endpaper. A very good copy in the scarce d.j. First edition., Abraham Wald pioneered the science of decision analysis and, in particular, that of sequential decision making. Before Wald, the traditional style of statistical decision was to posit a hypothesis, make a predetermined number of measurements, then make a decision whether to accept or reject the hypothesis. Wald realized that this procedure is quite wasteful, and that many measurements could be saved if given the option to decide at every step whether to continue or stop the measurement process. This idea revolutionized the art of statistical testing and was later developed in the hands of computer scientists into a field known as on-line algorithms. "Most, although not all, of [Wald's] results were summed up in Sequential Analysis (1974). With minor exceptions, the entire contents of this book were obtained by him. Such a phenomenon is rare in mathematical books and indicates the extent to which he founded and dominated the field of sequential analysis" (DSB). This item is listed on Bibliopoly by Michael R.
