WMY2000 NewsLetter 5 EDITORIAL "Southeast Asia and Mathematics" Mitsuo Morimoto Summary : A workshop in Thailand Sandwich Program in the Philippines CDE's support for Vietnam ICME - 9 in WMY 2000 A workshop in Thailand In January 1997 a Workshop on Analysis was held in Suranaree University of Technology, Thailand. Professor Huzihiro Araki was the Japanese organizer and chose eight fields of analysis: operator algebras, function algebras, harmonic analysis, wavelets, hyperfunctions, Wiener functional integrals, solvable lattice models, and non-commutative differential geometry. I was invited to give an introductory lecture on hyperfunctions. As newspapers have reported, the spectacular success of Thai economy can be felt during a short drive between the airport and the city center of Bangkok. Applied Science has been developing satisfactorily in Thailand. However, the growth of theoretical science has lagged behind and Thailand is not doing much in mainstream theoretical sciences, especially in mathematics. At this stage in the progress of the country, Thailand felt a need to promote pure mathematics. With this in mind, Professor Sidney Mitchel, an American professor working at Chulalokorn University, organized the workshop.

Past, Present and Future of the Society The Hong Kong Mathematical Society was established in 1979 under the enthusiastic support and encouragement of Prof. Y.C. Wong. The initial institutional members included Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Baptist College, Hong Kong Polytechnic and University of Hong Kong. The aims of the Society are to foster the academic research and information exchanges amongst colleagues and to provide favorable conditions for mathematics educations, both in theory and practice. Today the Society is supported by great number of mathematicians working in local universities and schools. Our institutional members have increased from 4 to 14 and have included all tertiary institutions in Hong Kong. The Society has been a member of the International Mathematical Union since 1982 and has been responsible for the editing of the Bulletin of South East Asian Mathematical Society. In addition, the Society will have its own Bulletin starting in the summer of 1997. To foster the exchanges of idea, the Society has organized series of important conferences. These include the SEAMS Conference in 1980, The First Asian Mathematical Conference in 1990 and The International Mathematical Olympaid in 1994. The Society also has, with the support from Urban Council, organized public lecture to popularize mathematics.

Ghiyas al-Din Abul Fath Umar ibn Ibrahim Khayyam Nishapuri Written by Iraj Bashiri Khayyam's dates of birth and death are reported differently by various authorities. The dates for his birth range from 1021 to 1048 and for his death from 1122 to 1131. Son of a tent maker, Khayyam was a mathematician, astronomer, philosopher, and poet. He was also skilled in medicine and music. His corpus of works, consisting of two works in physics, four in mathematics, five in philosophy, and one each in geography, astronomy, history, and music reflects his wide range of interest in the sciences and the arts. He knew Arabic and Persian. Of the works mentioned above eight are in Arabic and two in Perso-Tajik. Khayyam completed his elementary education in Balkh under Muhammad Mansur. By the age of seventeen he was well-versed in the sciences of his time. He spent the next nine years in Samarqand and Bukhara becoming acquainted with the philosophy of the masha'is, especially with the works of Ibn-i Sina. Two of his early works on mathematics"Mushkilat al-Hisab," dealing with the general rules governing the positive roots of numbers and "Sharh-i Mushkil min Kitab al-Musiqi," dealing with music from a mathematical standpointare mentioned in his later work "Risala fi al-Barahin ala Masa'il al-Jabr wa al-Muqabila." This work, which was written in the 1070's at the court of the Qara Khanid king Shams al-Muluk (1068-1079), established Khayyam's fame outside of Bukhara and Khurasan. In fact, it brought him in the purview of the Saljuq court of Isfahan.

Related Articles Forum O AKLAND, Calif. In a time when full-time academic appointments are hard to come by, some mathematics Ph.D.'s may consider the career path taken by Dr. Charles Brenner, 55, one of the world's first fully employed freelance mathematicians. Dr. Brenner calls himself a forensic mathematician and his business card reads, "Charles H. Brenner, Ph.D., Aphorisms, Inferences and Conclusions From Thin Air." As part of his work with his consulting company, DNA-View, Dr. Brenner travels around the globe helping scientists do the mathematical calculations necessary to analyze DNA evidence. He also advises in paternity cases. Dr. Brenner has always been a math rebel. In the 1970's, a time when he should have been finishing his graduate studies, he went to London where he supported himself for six years by playing bridge. He returned to the United States in 1974 to get his doctorate in number theory from the University of California at Los Angeles.

Documents SEARCH SAB: RELATED SITES: THE SYMBOLIC WORLD Mathematical Life and Death in the Ancient Greek World Colin McLarty Myth, Ritual and Society in the Ancient Greek World Paul Iversen This course introduces students to Greek, Roman, and some near Eastern myth as well as issues of interpreting these stories. The focus will be on myth as a concomitant feature of religious ritual. What do myths and rituals tell us about the society that generated it? What were its values, its collective memories and how do they compare to ours? Mathematics and the Quest for Truth David Singer Math and Art Joel Langer and Henry Adams Students in this University Seminar will explore relationships between art and mathematics. Topics include: pattern, symmetry and beauty in natural forms; symmetry and proportion in art, architecture, ornament and design; perspective and optics; number, iteration, and infinity; mathematical and computer techniques and themes in art, architecture and design. Beethoven and the Age of Revolution Richard Nelson Visions of Landscape Michael Cunnigham Apophatic Theology Florin Berindeanu This course is an introduction to the philosophy and consequences for literature and arts of negative theology. Known also, by its original Greek name, as apophatics, negative theology started as a mystical movement intent to oppose the doctrinal power and influence of the Catholic Church. In very basic terms, negative theology, holds that because God is clearly not of this world, God cannot be described in terms of what is, but only in terms of what is not. The apophaticdiscourse aims at liberating the theological thinking of scholastic-doctrinaire rigidity while indirectly warning of the increasingly institutional power of the Church viewed as contrary to the proto-Christian principles of essentiality. In response, the discourse of negative theology will evolve around simplicity and abstraction of thinking; for them, thinking religiously means withdrawing all barriers of expression and thus not limiting speaking to a certain fixed language or content.

ISBN 0-313-29131-4 (cloth), $49.95. From: AWM Newsletter, January/February 1999. Reviewed by : Marge Murray, Book Review Editor, Department of Mathematics, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24061-0123; email: murray@calvin.math.vt.edu Here at my home institution, Virginia Tech, I regularly teach our one-semester upper-level course in the history of mathematics, which is taken primarily by seniors majoring in mathematics or mathematics education. It's quite a challenge to present in fourteen weeks an overview of the high points of the historical development of mathematics, while at the same time conveying a sense of the social, cultural, intellectual, and political foundations of the subject. It is a still greater challenge to describe the explosive growth of mathematics, and of the mathematical community, over the past hundred years or so. But perhaps the greatest challenge that I face, as a woman teaching a roughly equal mix of male and female students, is to explain the stunning absence of women from the story of mathematics and, in particular, the yawning gap between the death of Hypatia (in the early 5th century AD) and the appearance of talented amateur mathematicians such as Emilie du Chatelet and Maria Agnesi (in the early 18th century). Why were women absent from mathematical activity for so long, and what were the social and cultural conditions which facilitated their reappearance? How can I convey to my students the truly stunning transformation over the past 125 years, during which time women have become significant, indeed central, participants in the mathematical enterprise?
