|
Mathematics for social justice is a pedagogical approach to mathematics education that seeks to incorporate lessons from critical mathematics pedagogy and similar educational philosophies into the teaching of mathematics at schools and colleges. The approach tries to empower students on their way to developing a positive mathematics identity and becoming active, numerically literate citizens who can navigate and participate in society. Mathematics for social justice puts particular emphasis on overcoming social inequalities. Its proponents, for example, Bob Moses, may understand numerical literacy as a civil right. Many of the founders of the movement, e.g. Eric Gutstein, were initially mathematics teachers, but the movement has since expanded to include the teaching of mathematics at colleges and universities. Their educational approach is influenced by earlier critical pedagogy advocates such as Paulo Freire and others. Mathematics for social justice has been criticised, however, its proponents argue that it both fits into existing teaching frameworks and promotes students' success in mathematics.
Mathematics for social justice often overlaps with other approaches to mathematics education, the practice and research of mathematics, including ethics in mathematics and ethnomathematics. Common to these approaches is that they can be understood as a sociopolitical turn in mathematics.
Criticism
Pedagogical approaches incorporating issues of social justice into mathematics classrooms have been heavily criticised by some mathematicians and educators. They argue that mathematics is neutral and that its education and research should be separated from issues of social justice. Balancing the requirements of a mathematical education that teaches students mathematical skills and social justice can be difficult. Some of its opponents use this to argue against mathematics for social justice because it would necessarily come at the expense of teaching mathematical knowledge.
Eric Gutstein's book Rethinking Mathematics has been said to calculate controversy and to unnecessarily bring partisan politics into mathematics. The criticism is shared with other works in this area.

|
Marco Antei (born 1978, Sanremo) is an Italian mathematician and LGBT+ activist.
Career
Antei was awarded his PhD in mathematics in 2008 from the University of Lille under the supervision of Michel Emsalem. He later worked at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, the KAIST in Daejeon, the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Beersheba, the Côte d'Azur University in Nice before joining the University of Costa Rica. He has been lecturer at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts since 2022. Antei studies within the field of geometry. His areas of interest in research focus on algebraic and arithmetic geometry, and applications. He particularly studies the fundamental group scheme, torsors and their connections.
The fundamental group scheme
The existence of the fundamental group scheme was conjectured by Alexander Grothendieck, while the first proof of its existence is due, for schemes defined over fields, to Madhav Nori.
Antei, Michel Emsalem and Carlo Gasbarri proved the existence of the fundamental group scheme for schemes defined over Dedekind schemes and they also defined, and proved the existence of, the quasi-finite fundamental group scheme .
Award
In 2020 Antei received the Innovating professor award at the University of Costa Rica, for being able to move from in presence classes to virtual classes, at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the best possible way. The awarded professors have been selected by the students of the UCR.
Activism
Antei stands out for his commitment in the fight for the rights of the LGBT+ community. In particular in 2015 he created the first LGBT+ association in the province of Imperia, subsidiary of the national association Arcigay, and he has been president of it until 2018, then again since 2023. During his mandate he also organized in November 2016 the first Transgender Day of Remembrance in the city of Sanremo. In 2020, he was featured in a remote meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen where the rights of LGBT+ people within the European Union were discussed

|
In baseball statistics, a double play (denoted as DP) is the act of making two outs during the same continuous play. One double play is recorded for every defensive player who participates in the play, regardless of how many of the outs in which they were directly involved, and is counted in addition to whatever putouts and assists might also apply. Double plays can occur any time there is at least one baserunner and fewer than two outs. An outfielder (OF) is a person playing in one of the three defensive positions in baseball farthest from the batter, who are identified as the left fielder (LF), the center fielder (CF), and the right fielder (RF). An outfielder's duty is to try to catch long fly balls before they hit the ground or to quickly catch or retrieve and return to the infield any other balls entering the outfield. Outfielders normally play behind the six other members of the defense who play in or near the infield; unlike catchers and most infielders (excepting first basemen), who are virtually exclusively right-handed, outfielders can be either right- or left-handed. In the scoring system used to record defensive plays, the outfielders are assigned the numbers 7 (left field), 8 (center field), and 9 (right field).
Outfielders are most commonly credited with a double play when they throw the ball to an infielder who tags a runner attempting to advance on the basepaths, even on a caught fly ball that results in an out (see tag up); of special importance are throws to the catcher if the runner is trying to reach home plate to score a run, perhaps on a sacrifice fly. Outfielders will often record assists by throwing out runners who try to advance farther than the batter, such as going from first to third base on a single, or batter/runners who try to stretch a hit into a longer one. Outfielders also earn double plays on relay throws to infielders after particularly deep fly balls, by throwing to a base to record an out on an appeal play, or in situations where they might deflect a fly ball before another defensive player makes the catch; in extraordinary instances, right fielders have occasionally recorded double plays by throwing out batters at first base after fielding uncaught line drives that reached them quickly. Outfielders record far fewer double plays than other players due to the difficulty of making an accurate throw in time to retire a runner from a great distance; middle infielders routinely record more double plays in a single season than outfielders do in their entire careers. Double plays are an important statistic for outfielders, giving a greater indication of an outfielder's throwing arm than double plays by infielders do. In recent years, some sabermetricians have begun referring to assists by outfielders as baserunner kills.
Tris Speaker is the all-time leader in career double plays as an outfielder with 143. Ty Cobb (104) is the only other outfielder who has recorded 100 career double plays. Jackie Bradley Jr., who h

One double play is recorded for every defensive player who participates in the play, regardless of how many of the outs in which they were directly involved, and is counted in addition to whatever putouts and assists might also apply. Double plays can occur any time there is at least one baserunner and fewer than two outs. The left fielder (LF) is one of the three outfielders, the defensive positions in baseball farthest from the batter. Left field is the area of the outfield to the left of a person standing at home plate and facing toward the pitcher's mound. The outfielders have to try to catch long fly balls before they hit the ground or to quickly catch or retrieve and return to the infield any other balls entering the outfield. The left fielder must also be adept at navigating the area of left field where the foul line approaches the corner of the playing field and the walls of the seating areas. Being the outfielder closest to third base, the left fielder generally does not have to throw as far as the other outfielders to throw out runners advancing around the bases, so they often do not have the strongest throwing arm, but their throws need to be accurate. The left fielder normally plays behind the third baseman and shortstop, who play in or near the infield; unlike catchers and most infielders (excepting first basemen), who are virtually exclusively right-handed, left fielders can be either right- or left-handed. In the scoring system used to record defensive plays, the left fielder is assigned the number 7.

The center fielder (CF) is one of the three outfielders, the defensive positions in baseball farthest from the batter.

The outfielders' duty is to try to catch long fly balls before they hit the ground or to quickly catch or retrieve and return to the infield any other balls entering the outfield. Generally having the most territory to cover, the center fielder is usually the fastest of the three outfielders, although this can also depend on the relative strength of their throwing arms and the configuration of their home field, due to the deepest part of center field being the farthest point from the infield and home plate. The center fielder normally plays behind the shortstop and second baseman, who play in or near the infield; unlike catchers and most infielders (excepting first basemen), who are virtually exclusively right-handed, center fielders can be either right- or left-handed. In the scoring system used to record defensive plays, the center fielder is assigned the number 8.

The Kerr–Newman–de–Sitter metric (KNdS) is the one of the most general stationary solutions of the Einstein–Maxwell equations in general relativity that describes the spacetime geometry in the region surrounding an electrically charged, rotating mass embedded in an expanding universe. It generalizes the Kerr–Newman metric by taking into account the cosmological constant .

Horizons and ergospheres
The horizons are at and the ergospheres at .
This can be solved numerically or analytically. Like in the Kerr and Kerr–Newman metrics the horizons have constant Boyer-Lindquist , while the ergospheres' radii also depend on the polar angle .
This gives 3 positive solutions each (including the black hole's inner and outer horizons and ergospheres as well as the cosmic ones) and a negative solution for the space at in the antiverse behind the ring singularity, which is part of the probably unphysical extended solution of the metric.
With a negative (the Anti–de–Sitter variant with an attractive cosmological constant) there are no cosmic horizon and ergosphere, only the black hole related ones.
In the Nariai limit the black hole's outer horizon and ergosphere coincide with the cosmic ones (in the Schwarzschild–de–Sitter metric to which the KNdS reduces with that would be the case when ).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammann%20A1%20tilings
|
In geometry, an Ammann A1 tiling is a tiling from the 6 piece prototile set shown on the right. They were found in 1977 by Robert Ammann. Ammann was inspired by the Robinsion tilings, which were found by Robinson in 1971. The A1 tiles are one of five sets of tiles discovered by Ammann and described in Tilings and Patterns.
The A1 tile set is aperiodic, i.e. they tile the whole Euclidean plane, but only without ever creating a periodic tiling.
Generation through matching
The prototiles are squares with indentations and protrusions on the sides and corners that force the tiling to form a pattern of a perfect binary tree that is continued indefinitely. The markings on the tiles in the pictures emphasize this hierarchical structure, however, they have only illustrative character and do not represent additional matching rules as this is already taken care of by the indentations and protrusions.
However, the tiling produced in this way is not unique, not even up to isometries of the Euclidean group, e.g. translations and rotations. When going to the next generation, one has choices. In the picture to the left, the initial patch in the left upper corner highlighted in blue can be prolonged by either a green or a red tile, which are mirror images of each other and instances of the prototile labeled b. Then there are two more choices in the same spirit but with prototile e. The remainder of the next generation is then fixed. If one would deviate from the pattern for this next generation, one would run into configurations that will not match up globally at least at some later stage.
The choices are encoded by infinite words from for the alphabet , where g indicates the green choice while r indicates the red choice. These are in bijection to a Cantor set and thus their cardinality is the continuum. Not all choices lead to a tiling of the plane. E.g. if one only sticks to the green choice one would only fill a lower right corner of the plane. If there are sufficiently generic infinitely many alteration between g and r one will however cover the whole plane. This still leaves uncountably many different A1 tilings, all of them necessarily nonperiodic. Since there are only countably many possible Euclidean isometries that respect the squares underlying the tiles to relate these different tilings, there are uncountable many A1 tilings even up to isometries.
Additionally an A1 tiling may have faults (also called corridors) going off to infinity in arms. This additionally increases the numbers of possible A1 tilings, but the cardinality remains that of the continuum. Note that the corridors allow for some part with binary tree hierarchy to be rotated compared to the other such parts.

Vivek Vijay Shende is an American mathematician known for his work on algebraic geometry, algebraic topology and quantum computing. He is a professor of Quantum Mathematics at Syddansk Universitet while on leave from University of California Berkeley.
Doctoral studies and early career
Shende defended his Ph.D. dissertation "Hilbert schemes of points on integral plane curves" at Princeton University in 2011 under the supervision of Rahul Pandharipande. From 2011 to 2013, he was a Simons Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT mentored by Paul Seidel. Shende joined Berkeley as an assistant professor in 2013 and became an associate professor in 2019. He supervised at least four doctoral degrees at Berkeley.
Awards and accomplishments
In 2021, after moving to Denmark, Shende received sizable grants intended to support the creation of a new research group. The Danish National Research Foundation awarded Shende its DNRF Chair. The Villum Foundation funded Shende's research in mathematical aspects of String theory through the Villum Investigator program. This is one of the largest and most prestigious grants for individual researchers in Denmark.
As a Berkeley professor, Shende received the National Science Foundation CAREER Award in 2017 and a Sloan Research Fellowship in Mathematics in 2015.
In 2010, Shende proved, together with Martijn Kool and Richard Thomas, the Göttsche conjecture in algebraic geometry that remained open for more than a century.
During his undergraduate studies at the University of Michigan, he performed computer science research with Igor L. Markov and John P. Hayes. Shende shared in 2004 the IEEE Donald O. Pederson Award in Solid-State Circuits
as the lead author of the work on synthesis of reversible logic circuits. This paper proved the existence of reversible circuits that implement certain permutations and developed algorithms for finding such circuits. Shende was also the lead author of the work on synthesis of quantum circuits that developed the quantum Shannon decomposition and algorithms for finding asymptotically optimal quantum circuits that implement a given -qubit unitary matrix, as well as quantum circuits that construct a given -qubit quantum state.
Shende obtained formulas and algorithms for implementing smallest possible quantum circuits for 2-qubit unitary matrices. For the 3-qubit Toffoli gate, he proved that six CNOT gates are necessary in a circuit that implements it, showing that the widely used six-CNOT decomposition is optimal. These publications are highly cited (per Google Scholar) and their results laid the foundation of compilers for quantum computers.
Mathematics education
Shende taught college-level Calculus, Discrete Mathematics as well as Linear Algebra and Differential Equations courses at Berkeley. In 2021 he cosigned, along with many professional mathematicians, an open letter to Governor Gavin Newsom and other California officials asking to replace the proposed new California Math curriculum fr

Frank Rudolf Hampel (1941 in Heidelberg – October 2, 2018 in Thalwil) was a German statistician and a pioneer in robust statistics. He was professor at ETH Zurich for most of his career.
Education and career
Hampel was born in Heidelberg and studied mathematics and physics at the University of Göttingen and University of Munich, then statistics at the University of California, Berkeley, where he also completed his doctorate in 1968 under the supervision of Erich Lehmann. He was then responsible for the statistical consulting service at the University of Zurich as senior assistant. In 1973 he was elected associate professor of statistics at ETH Zurich by the Swiss Federal Council, and in 1979 he was promoted to full professor. Under his leadership, the Seminar for Statistics continued to grow until his retirement in 2006.
Research
Hampel made fundamental contributions to robust statistics and made a significant contribution to ETH Zurich being a world leader in this field. He introduced the two central terms, breakdown point and influence function with, which quantify the robustness properties of statistical methods and are used to construct optimal inference methods. The creative application of statistics in the analysis of data was also a major concern for Frank Hampel. In the 1970s he was in charge of the evaluation of the so-called large-scale test IV for hail defense in Switzerland and he made it possible to set up the statistical consulting service at ETH Zurich. Hampel was an unconventional researcher and teacher with an extremely original creativity that inspired and shaped many students and colleagues. In his free time, Hampel devoted himself to observing nature with great commitment. He acquired detailed knowledge of astronomy, birds, orchids and dragonflies and knew how to pass this knowledge on with great enthusiasm.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resurgent%20function
|
The term resurgent function (from , to get up again) comes from French mathematician Jean Écalle's theory of resurgent functions and alien calculus. The theory evolved from the summability of divergent series (see Borel summation) and treats analytic functions with isolated singularities. He introduced the term in the late 1970s.
Resurgent functions have applications in asymptotic analysis, in the theory of differential equations, in perturbation theory and in quantum field theory.
For analytic functions with isolated singularities, the Alien calculus (Alien calculus) can be derived, a special algebra for their derivatives.
Definition
A -resurgent function is an element of , i.e. an element of the form from , where and is a -continuable germ.
A power series whose formal Borel transformation is a -resurgent function is called -resurgent series.
Basic concepts and notation
Convergence in :
The formal power series is convergent in if the associated formal power series has a positive radius of convergence. denotes the space of formal power series convergent in .
Formal Borel transform:
The formal Borel transform (named after Émile Borel) is the operator defined by
.
Convolution in :
Let , then the convolution is given by
.
By adjunction we can add a unit to the convolution in and introduce the vector space , where we denote the element with . Using the convention we can write the space as and define

Danuta Przeworska-Rolewicz (25 May 1931 – 23 June 2012), was a Polish professor of mathematics and long-time employee of the Institute of Mathematics of the Polish Academy of Sciences. During World War II, as a child, she was a resistance fighter.
Life and work
Danuta Przeworska was born in Warsaw into the family of two archaeologists Stefan Przeworski and his wife Janina. Initially, Danuta wanted to pursue archaeology but switched to mathematics instead. With the outbreak of World War II, she participated in the resistance movement as a child and fought in the Warsaw Uprising of 1944, for which she was awarded the Warsaw Uprising Cross.
Academic work
After the secondary school, she began studies at the Faculty of Mathematics of the University of Warsaw, where in 1956 she obtained a master's degree. Then she started research work at the Mathematical Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences. In 1958 she obtained the title of doctor (with her dissertation titled On systems of strongly-singular integral equations, under the supervision of Witold Pogorzelski), and in 1964 she successfully defended her habilitation thesis.
From 1954 to 1960 she worked as an assistant and lecturer at the Warsaw University of Technology, from 1960 she lectured at the Mathematical Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences. In 1973, she lectured for a year at the Cybernetics Department of the Military University of Technology where she taught algebraic analysis classes using an experimental method of her own invention. In 1974, she obtained the title of professor of mathematical sciences and she went on to supervise nine PhD students.
Przeworska-Rolewicz's fields of interest included singular integral equations, algebraic methods in analysis / operational calculus, functional analysis and others. Her scientific achievements include more than 200 scientific papers and four textbooks. Danuta Przeworska-Rolewicz was the organizer of the international conferences organized in Warsaw entitled "Functional-differential systems and related systems," which took place in 1979, 1981, 1983 and 1985, and then "Various aspects of differentiability" in 1993 and 1995. The conferences attempted to build collaborative research relationships among the attendees.
She was among the founders of the Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis journal, and she was also a member of the editorial boards of Demonstratio Mathematica (since 1987), Scientiae Mathematicae (since 1997) and Matematica Japonica (since 1998).
Personal life
She married the Polish mathematician and colleague Stefan Henryk Rolewicz (1932–2015) in January 1952 and they had two children
On 23 August 1980, she joined the appeal of 64 scholars, writers and journalists to the communist authorities for dialogue with striking workers.
Danuta Przeworska-Rolewicz died in Warsaw in June 2012 and is buried at the Powązki Military Cemetery in Warsaw (section G-2-2/3).

In probability theory particularly in the Malliavin calculus, a Gaussian probability space is a probability space together with a Hilbert space of mean zero, real-valued Gaussian random variables. Important examples include the classical or abstract Wiener space with some suitable collection of Gaussian random variables.
Definition
A Gaussian probability space consists of
a (complete) probability space ,
a closed subspace called the Gaussian space such that all are mean zero Gaussian variables. Their σ-algebra is denoted as .
a σ-algebra called the transverse σ-algebra which is defined through
Irreducibility
A Gaussian probability space is called irreducible if . Such spaces are denoted as . Non-irreducible spaces are used to work on subspaces or to extend a given probability space. Irreducible Gaussian probability spaces are classified by the dimension of the Gaussian space .
Subspaces
A subspace of a Gaussian probability space consists of
a closed subspace ,
a sub σ-algebra of transverse random variables such that and are independent, and .
Example:
Let be a Gaussian probability space with a closed subspace . Let be the orthogonal complement of in . Since orthogonality implies independence between and , we have that is independent of . Define via .
Remark
For we have .
Fundamental algebra
Given a Gaussian probability space one defines the algebra of cylindrical random variables
where is a polynomial in and calls the fundamental algebra. For any it is true that .
For an irreducible Gaussian probability the fundamental algebra is a dense set in for all .
Numerical and Segal model
An irreducible Gaussian probability where a basis was chosen for is called a numerical model. Two numerical models are isomorphic if their Gaussian spaces have the same dimension.
Given a separable Hilbert space , there exists always a canoncial irreducible Gaussian probability space called the Segal model with as a Gaussian space.

Arie Bialostocki is an Israeli American mathematician with expertise and contributions in discrete mathematics and finite groups.
Education and career
Arie received his BSc, MSc, and PhD (1984) degrees from Tel-Aviv University in Israel. His dissertation was done under the supervision of Marcel Herzog. After a year of postdoc at University of Calgary, Canada, he took a faculty position at the University of Idaho, became a professor in 1992, and continued to work there until he retired at the end of 2011.
At Idaho, Arie maintained correspondence and collaborations with researchers from around the world who would share similar interests in mathematics. His Erdős number is 1. He has supervised seven PhD students and numerous undergraduate students who enjoyed his colorful anecdotes and advice. He organized the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program
at the University of Idaho from 1999 to 2003 attracting
many promising undergraduates who themselves have gone on to their
outstanding research careers.
Mathematics research
Arie has published more than 50 publications in reputed mathematics journals. The following are some of Arie's most important contributions:
Bialostocki redefined a -injector in a finite group G to be any maximal nilpotent subgroup of satisfying , where is the largest cardinality of a subgroup of which is nilpotent of class at most . Using his definition, it was proved by several authors that in many non-solvable groups the nilpotent injectors form a unique conjugacy class.
Bialostocki contributed to the generalization of the Erdős-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem (also known as the EGZ theorem). He conjectured: if is a sequence of elements of , then contains at least zero sums of length . The EGZ theorem is a special case where . The conjecture was partially confirmed by Kisin, Füredi and Kleitman, and Grynkiewicz.
Bialostocki introduced the EGZ polynomials and contributed to generalize the EGZ theorem for higher degree polynomials. The EGZ theorem is associated with the first degree elementary polynomial.
Bialostocki and Dierker introduced the relationship of EGZ theorem to Ramsey Theory on graphs.
Bialostocki, Erdős, and Lefmann introduced the relationship of EGZ theorem to Ramsey Theory on the positive integers.
In Jakobs and Jungnickel's book "Einführung in die Kombinatorik", Bialostocki and Dierker are attributed for introducing Zero-sum Ramsey theory. In Landman and Robertson's book "Ramsey Theory on the Integers", the number is defined in honor of Bialostocki's contributions to the Zero-sum Ramsey theory.
Bialostocki, Dierker, and Voxman suggested a conjecture offering a modular strengthening of the Erdős–Szekeres theorem proving that the number of points in the interior of the polygon is divisible by , provided that total number of points . Károlyi, Pach and Tóth made further progress toward the proof of the conjecture.

In probability theory, Lévy's stochastic area is a stochastic process that describes the enclosed area of a trajectory of a two-dimensional Brownian motion and its chord. The process was introduced by Paul Lévy in 1940, and in 1950 he computed the characteristic function and conditional characteristic function.
The process has many unexpected connections to other objects in mathematics such as the soliton solutions of the Korteweg–De Vries equation and the Riemann zeta function. In the Malliavin calculus, the process can be used to construct a process that is smooth in the sense of Malliavin but that has no continuous modification with respect to the Banach norm.

In baseball statistics, a double play (denoted as DP) is the act of making two outs during the same continuous play. One double play is recorded for every defensive player who participates in the play, regardless of how many of the outs in which they were directly involved, and is counted in addition to whatever putouts and assists might also apply. Double plays can occur any time there is at least one baserunner and fewer than two outs. The center fielder (CF) is one of the three outfielders, the defensive positions in baseball farthest from the batter. Center field is the area of the outfield directly in front of a person standing at home plate and facing beyond the pitcher's mound. The outfielders' duty is to try to catch long fly balls before they hit the ground or to quickly catch or retrieve and return to the infield any other balls entering the outfield. Generally having the most territory to cover, the center fielder is usually the fastest of the three outfielders, although this can also depend on the relative strength of their throwing arms and the configuration of their home field, due to the deepest part of center field being the farthest point from the infield and home plate. The center fielder normally plays behind the shortstop and second baseman, who play in or near the infield; unlike catchers and most infielders (excepting first basemen), who are virtually exclusively right-handed, center fielders can be either right- or left-handed. In the scoring system used to record defensive plays, the center fielder is assigned the number 8.
Right fielders are most commonly credited with a double play when they throw the ball to an infielder who tags a runner attempting to advance on the basepaths, even on a caught fly ball that results in an out (see tag up); of special importance are throws to the catcher if the runner is trying to reach home plate to score a run, perhaps on a sacrifice fly. Left fielders will often record assists by throwing out runners who try to advance farther than the batter, such as going from first to third base on a single, or batter/runners who try to stretch a hit into a longer one. Outfielders also earn double plays on relay throws to infielders after particularly deep fly balls, by throwing to a base to record an out on an appeal play, or in situations where they might deflect a fly ball before another defensive player makes the catch; in extraordinary instances, right fielders have occasionally recorded double plays by throwing out batters at first base after fielding uncaught line drives that reached them quickly. Outfielders record far fewer double plays than other players due to the difficulty of making an accurate throw in time to retire a runner from a great distance; middle infielders routinely record more double plays in a single season than outfielders do in their entire careers. Double plays are an important statistic for outfielders, giving a greater indication of a left fielder's throwing arm than

|
Sarah Anne Peluse is an American mathematician specializing in arithmetic combinatorics and analytic number theory, and known for her research on generalizations of Szemerédi's theorem on the existence of polynomial progressions in dense sets of integers. She is an assistant professor and LSA Collegiate Fellow in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Michigan.
Education and career
Peluse's interest in mathematics was sparked by a sixth-grade teacher using the Socratic method. After skipping seventh grade, and running through all of the mathematics available at her local high school and community college, she enrolled at Lake Forest College in Illinois at age 15. The mathematics on offer there lasted her only for another two years, so she transferred to the University of Chicago, with Paul Sally and later Maryanthe Malliaris as mentors. She also became a member of the University of Chicago track and field team, which competed at two national championship meets, and she was recognized as a Division III All-Academic Athlete by the NCAA. She earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics in 2014.
Peluse completed her Ph.D. at Stanford University in 2019. Her dissertation, Bounds for sets with no nontrivial polynomial progressions, was supervised by Kannan Soundararajan. She became an NSF Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Oxford, and then a Veblen Research Instructor at Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study, before taking her present position as a faculty member at the University of Michigan.
Recognition
As an undergraduate, Peluse won the 2014 Alice T. Schafer Prize of the Association for Women in Mathematics for her work in mathematics.
Peluse was the recipient of the 2022 Dénes König Prize, given at the SIAM Conference on Discrete Mathematics, for her work on polynomial generalizations of Szemerédi's theorem. She was also a 2022 recipient of the Maryam Mirzakhani New Frontiers Prize, associated with the Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics, "for contributions to arithmetic combinatorics and analytic number theory, particularly with regards to polynomial patterns in dense sets".
She won the 2023 Salem Prize (joint with Julian Sahasrabudhe) for contributions to additive combinatorics and related fields, including her work on quantitative density theorems for polynomial configurations in arithmetic progressions, which have found application in discrete harmonic analysis and ergodic theory.

Kuntala Ghosh Dastidar (23 June 1962) is a former Indian women's football player. She captained the Indian team that played the 1981 World Cup. It does not pop up in statistics because at that time FIFA did not recognise the women's game. Some of the other players who played in the 1981 World Cup are Shanti Mullick, Minati Roy and Judy D'Silva. Kuntala later took up coaching and also became a football referee. She started 'Bandhu Collective' to coach the from under-privileged families, including from the Red Light areas.
Early life
Kuntala home was near the Vivekananda Park and she used to go regularly to the park along with her uncle Sujit Ghosh Dastidar. When she was young she got an offer from renowned Satyajit Ray to act as ‘Durga’ in but encouraged by her uncle she preferred football and politely refused the offer. In June 1975, Arati Bannerjee, wife of PK Bannerjee, organised a football match for women for the first time and Kuntala was part of the 16-member team that was selected from the 150 that turned out that day. Many of them, including Kuntala, went on to play for the National team. She worked and played for Railways.
Career
She was part of the Indian team that finished second in the Asian Championship in 1979 and 1983. In 1981, India was placed third.
She was part of Asian All Stars team in 1981 along with Shanthi Mullick and Shukla Dutta.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conley%20conjecture
|
The Conley conjecture, named after mathematician Charles Conley, is a mathematical conjecture in the field of symplectic geometry, a branch of differential geometry.
Background
Let be a compact symplectic manifold. A vector field on is called a Hamiltonian vector field if the 1-form is exact (i.e., equals to the differential of a function . A Hamiltonian diffeomorphism is the integration of a 1-parameter family of Hamiltonian vector fields .
In dynamical systems one would like to understand the distribution of fixed points or periodic points. A periodic point of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism (of periodic ) is a point such that . A feature of Hamiltonian dynamics is that Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms tend to have infinitely many periodic points. Conley first made such a conjecture for the case that is a torus.
The Conley conjecture is false in many simple cases. For example, a rotation of a round sphere by an angle equal to an irrational multiple of , which is a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism, has only 2 geometrically different periodic points. On the other hand, it is proved for various types of symplectic manifolds.
History of studies
The Conley conjecture was proved by Franks and Handel for surfaces with positive genus. The case of higher dimensional torus was proved by Hingston. Hingston's proof inspired the proof of Ginzburg of the Conley conjecture for symplectically aspherical manifolds. Later Ginzburg--Gurel and Hein proved the Conley conjecture for manifolds whose first Chern class vanishes on spherical classes. Finally, Ginzburg--Gurel proved the Conley conjecture for negatively monotone symplectic manifolds.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List%20of%20Major%20League%20Baseball%20career%20double%20plays%20as%20a%20pitcher%20leaders
|
In baseball statistics, a double play (denoted as DP) is the act of making two outs during the same continuous play. One double play is recorded for every defensive player who participates in the play, regardless of how many of the outs in which they were directly involved, and is counted in addition to whatever putouts and assists might also apply. Double plays can occur any time there is at least one baserunner and fewer than two outs. The pitcher is the player who pitches the baseball from the pitcher's mound toward the catcher to begin each play, with the goal of retiring a batter, who attempts to either make contact with the pitched ball or draw a walk. The pitcher is often considered the most important player on the defensive side of the game, playing the most difficult and specialized position, and as such is regarded as being at the right end of the defensive spectrum. Pitchers play far less than players at other positions, generally appearing in only two or three games per week; only one pitcher in major league history has appeared in 100 games in a single season. There are many different types of pitchers, generally divided between starting pitchers and relief pitchers, which include the middle reliever, lefty specialist, setup man, and closer. In the scoring system used to record defensive plays, the pitcher is assigned the number 1.
Pitchers typically record double plays by ground balls hit to the pitcher. Most of the time, these double plays will go 1-6-3 (pitcher to shortstop to first baseman), though sometimes these double plays will go pitcher 1-4-3 (pitcher to second baseman to first baseman).
Greg Maddux is the all-time leader in career double plays by a pitcher with 98; he is the only pitcher to reach nearly 100 career double plays.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octant%20of%20a%20sphere
|
In geometry, an octant of a sphere is a spherical triangle with three right angles and three right sides. It is one face of a spherical octahedron.
For a sphere embedded in three-dimensional Euclidean space, the vectors from the sphere's center to each vertex of an octant are the basis vectors of a Cartesian coordinate system relative to which the sphere is a unit sphere. The spherical octant itself is the intersection of the sphere with one octant of space.
Uniquely among spherical triangles, the octant is its own polar triangle.
The octant can be parametrized using a rational quartic Bézier triangle.

Marie-Paule Malliavin, née Brameret, (1935 in Mahdia – 25 September, 2019 in Paris) was a French mathematician who specialised in the field of algebra.
Family
She was married to the mathematician Paul Malliavin since 27 April 1965. They had two children (Thérèse and Marie-Joseph).
Career
She published her first mathematical article in 1960 and received her doctorate in 1965.
After her doctorate, she first became maître de conférences at the University of Caen. Later she became a professor at the Pierre and Marie Curie University (UPMC, Paris 6) in Paris, where she remained until her retirement.
Her mathematical students include Jacques Alev and Youssef El From. She wrote several textbooks; the books on commutative algebra and representation theory of finite groups are frequently cited.
At the beginning of her career, she worked on commutative algebra, later on non-commutative algebra. This was at a time when enveloping algebras and then quantum groups were evolving. She collaborated with her husband Paul Malliavin in particular in the study of measures on infinite-dimensional groups.
Marie-Paule Malliavin was editor of top-ranked international research journals. She also organised the Algebra Seminar at the Institut Henri Poincaré for several decades, succeeding the deceased Professor Paul Dubreil.

Bonifacio Chiovitti (Bojano, June 1810 – Bojano, 25 October 1881) was an Italian archaeologist and politician.
Biography
Chiovitti obtained two degrees, in mathematics and medicine, from the University of Naples.
In 1860 he took part in the Risorgimento uprisings and in 1861 he became member of the "Consiglio Provinciale del Molise".
Chiovitti dedicates himself to the study of the archeology and ancient history of his region. He collected between 1830 and 1880 many archaeological findings coming from the Boiano area, including many Latin and Oscan inscriptions. He was member of the "Instituto di Corrispondenza Archeologica" (afterwards Deutsches Archäologisches Institut), member of the board of the "Commissione conservatrice" (1876) and inspector of excavations and monuments (from 1877). Chiovitti did not allow Mommsen to publish Latin inscriptions from Bovianum he had collected within the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum, vol. IX. Chiovitti collection of antiquities is still kept in his family palace in Boiano.

|
The Hirst Prize and Lectureship is a biennial prize, jointly awarded by the London Mathematical Society (LMS) and the British Society for the History of Mathematics (BSHM). The prize recognises original and innovative contributions to the history of mathematics by an individual winner or by joint winners.
The prize was first awarded in 2015 (solely by the LMS) as part of the LMS's 150th anniversary celebrations. The prize is named in honour of Thomas Archer Hirst, who was from 1872 to 1874 the fifth President of the LMS. Any mathematician or historian of mathematics is eligible for the prize — except for previous winners of the De Morgan Medal, LMS's Pólya Prize, Fröhlich Prize, Naylor Prize and Lectureship, Senior Whitehead Prize, Senior Anne Bennett Prize, or the Christopher Zeeman Medal. In the year for awarding the prize, the members of the Hirst Prize Committee, the members of the LMS and BSHM Councils are also ineligible.
The administration of the Hirst Prize alternates between the LMS and the BSHM offices, but the LMS alone organises the Hirst Lectureship. The lecture normally takes place in the year following the award of the Hirst Prize, and the venue for the lecture is chosen by the winner (or winners) of the Hirst Prize.

|
This is a list of human deaths caused by dogs, which became publicly known in the form of reports, cause of death statistics, scientific papers or other sources. For more information on causes of death and studies related to dog bite related fatalities, see Fatal dog attacks.
Since 1998 deaths have been collected according to ICD-10 International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems. With the help of cause-of-death statistics, recommendations for action and strategies can be derived, for example, for epidemiological research, prevention of deaths, and so on. Deaths from or after dog bites are very rare, they count as preventable deaths. W 54: Bitten or Struck by dog is the classification according to ICD-10.
According to an evaluation of the number of deaths in the period from 2009 to 2019, an average of 3.3 people died per year throughout Germany. The states of Rhineland-Palatinate, Schleswig-Holstein, Bremen and Saarland had no deaths during this period. In 2009, 2011 and 2012, there were no deaths nationwide, according to statistics.
Deaths per year: 2000: 6, 2001: 4, 2002: 4, 2003: 5, 2004: 3, 2005: 0, 2006: 5, 2007: 0, 2008: 0, 2009: 0, 2010: 8, 2011: 0, 2012: 0, 2013: 0, 2014: 4, 2015: 5, 2016: 4, 2017: 4, 2018: 6, 2019: ?, 2020: 6, 2021: 5
