43. Mathematical Problems By David Hilbert Surely the first and oldest problems in every branch of mathematics spring from A reprint of appears in Mathematical Developments Arising from hilbert http://aleph0.clarku.edu/~djoyce/hilbert/problems.html

Mathematical Problems Lecture delivered before the International Congress of Mathematicians at Paris in 1900 By Professor David Hilbert Who of us would not be glad to lift the veil behind which the future lies hidden; to cast a glance at the next advances of our science and at the secrets of its development during future centuries? What particular goals will there be toward which the leading mathematical spirits of coming generations will strive? What new methods and new facts in the wide and rich field of mathematical thought will the new centuries disclose? History teaches the continuity of the development of science. We know that every age has its own problems, which the following age either solves or casts aside as profitless and replaces by new ones. If we would obtain an idea of the probable development of mathematical knowledge in the immediate future, we must let the unsettled questions pass before our minds and look over the problems which the science of today sets and whose solution we expect from the future. To such a review of problems the present day, lying at the meeting of the centuries, seems to me well adapted. For the close of a great epoch not only invites us to look back into the past but also directs our thoughts to the unknown future. The deep significance of certain problems for the advance of mathematical science in general and the important role which they play in the work of the individual investigator are not to be denied. As long as a branch of science offers an abundance of problems, so long is it alive; a lack of problems foreshadows extinction or the cessation of independent development. Just as every human undertaking pursues certain objects, so also mathematical research requires its problems. It is by the solution of problems that the investigator tests the temper of his steel; he finds new methods and new outlooks, and gains a wider and freer horizon.

The Mathematical Problems of David Hilbert About Hilbert's address and his 23 mathematical problems Hilbert's address of 1900 to the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris is perhaps the most influential speech ever given to mathematicians, given by a mathematician, or given about mathematics. In it, Hilbert outlined 23 major mathematical problems to be studied in the coming century. Some are broad, such as the axiomatization of physics (problem 6) and might never be considered completed. Others, such as problem 3, were much more specific and solved quickly. Some were resolved contrary to Hilbert's expectations, as the continuum hypothesis (problem 1). Hilbert's address was more than a collection of problems. It outlined his philosophy of mathematics and proposed problems important to his philosophy. Although almost a century old, Hilbert's address is still important and should be read (at least in part) by anyone interested in pursuing research in mathematics. In 1974 a symposium was held at Northern Illinois University on the Mathematical developments arising from Hilbert problems.

Hilbert's Moment Functions, and not his probability theory, has been a lifelong research interest for a Professor Emeritus from the University of Toronto. A theorem has been very strongly suggested by computer data but no proof has been found. The starting point was an investigation of an integral equation, related to the Hilbert matrix and to Hilbert's inequality. The summarized findings are posted on the web and he is now searching for people to help with taking the investigation further or pointing out any error in the argument. The web address is: http://www.genexisdesign.com/math.html . My father is a well know author, but due to his advanced age (88 years), he is unable to handle volumes of mail anymore. I am not a mathematician but will forward any enquiries to him, and then he will correspond directly. Please send enquires to Anne Leon

A Short Biography of A.N. Kolmogorov (``Andrei Nikolaevich Kolmogorov,'' CWI Quarterly, 1(1988), pp. 3-18.) by Paul M.B. Vitanyi , CWI and University of Amsterdam Andrei Nikolaevich Kolmogorov, born 25 April 1903 in Tambov, Russia, died 20 October 1987 in Moscow. He was perhaps the foremost contemporary Soviet mathematician and counts as one of the great mathematicians of this century. His many creative and fundamental contributions to a vast variety of mathematical fields are so wide-ranging that I cannot even attempt to treat them either completely or in any detail. For now let me mention a non-exhaustive list of areas he enriched by his fundamental research: The theory of trigonometric series, measure theory, set theory, the theory of integration, constructive logic (intuitionism), topology, approximation theory, probability theory, the theory of random processes, information theory, mathematical statistics, dynamical systems, automata theory, theory of algorithms, mathematical linguistics, turbulence theory, celestial mechanics, differential equations, Hilbert's 13th problem, ballistics, and applications of mathematics to problems of biology, geology, and the crystallization of metals.

Weisstein February 13, 2002In a paper appearing in this month's Foundations of Computational Mathematics , W. Tucker of Cornell University has become the first person to lay to rest one of Steven Smale's challenging math problems for the twenty-first century. In 1998, mathematician and Fields medalist Steven Smale published a list of problems that would prove challenging to mathematicians in the upcoming century (Smale 1998, 2000). This list was proposed in the spirit of Hilbert's problems , a list of problems put forward by mathematician David Hilbert in 1900, whose solutions Hilbert envisioned would lead to significant furthering of various disciplines of mathematics. With the publication of Tucker's paper, the 14th problem on Smale's list has become the first to be cracked. Smale's 14th problem asks if the structure of the solution to the so-called Lorenz equations is that of a strange attractor . The Lorenz attractor is the solution space that arises in a simplified system of equations describing the 2-dimensional flow of fluid of uniform depth in the presence of an imposed temperature difference and with gravity, buoyancy, thermal diffusivity, and kinematic viscosity (friction) taken into account. In the early 1960s, Lorenz accidentally discovered that this system exhibits

David Hilbert (1862-1943) Excerpt from Math Odyssey 2000 David Hilbert was born in Koenigsberg, East Prussia in 1862 and received his doctorate from his home town university in 1885. His knowledge of mathematics was broad and he excelled in most areas. His early work was in a field called the theory of algebraic invariants. In this subject his contributions equaled that of Eduard Study, a mathematician who, according to Hilbert, "knows only one field of mathematics." Next after looking over the work done by French mathematicians, Hilbert concentrated on theories involving algebraic and transfinite numbers. In 1899 he published his little book The Foundations of Geometry , in which he stated a set of axioms that finally removed the flaws from Euclidean geometry. At the same time and independently, the American mathematician Robert L. Moore (who was then 19 years old) also published an equivalent set of axioms for Euclidean geometry. Some of the axioms in both systems were the same, but there was an interesting feature about those axioms that were different. Hilbert's axioms could be proved as theorems from Moore's and conversely, Moore's axioms could be proved as theorems from Hilbert's. After these successes with the axiomatization of geometry, Hilbert was inspired to try to develop a program to axiomatize all of mathematics. With his attempt to achieve this goal, he began what is known as the "formalist school" of mathematics. In the meantime, he was expanding his contributions to mathematics in several directions partial differential equations, calculus of variations and mathematical physics. It was clear to him that he could not do all this alone; so in 1900, when he was 38 years old, Hilbert gave a massive homework assignment to all the mathematicians of the world.

CRM Research Programme for the academic year 2005-2006 On Hilbert's 16th problem Organisers Jaume Llibre and Armengol Gasull (UAB) Chengzhi Li and Jiazhong Yang (Peking University) Research topics One of the two problems of the famous list that Hilbert provided more than one hundred years ago and that remains unsolved is the second part of his 16th problem. This problem can be stated as follows: Which is the configuration and the maximum number of limit cycles that a planar polynomial differential system can have in function of its degree?. We will try to contribute to this problem. Thus, we will look for the upper bound of the number of limit cycles of the Abel equations with periodic coefficients in terms of their coefficients. We recall that the 16th Hilbert problem for quadratic polynomial vector fields is contained in those Abel equations. Also we will study generalizations of these equations motivated by other planar differential equations; for instance, those coming from the rigid vector fields, etc. Also we will consider upper and lower bounded problems for the number of limit cycles of different classes of planar differential equations, as the Lienard equations, systems having homogeneous components of different degree, homogeneous systems perturbed by a constant system, systems with a fixed degree,... To give upper bounds
