Lefschetz, Solomon Lefschetz, Solomon (1884-1972) came to the United States in 1907 as an engineer, but turned to mathematics when he lost both hands in an accident while working for the Westinghouse Company. He eventually became world renowned for his contributions to the topological study of all algebraic geometry and the algebraic study of topology. At Princeton, as Fine Professor and department chairman, he carried on where Fine, Eisenhart, and Veblen left off in making Fine Hall world-famous as a center for mathematics. He was born in Moscow and grew up in Paris, where he graduated from the cole Centrale in 1905 with a degree in mechanical engineering. Following the accident, in 1910 he won a fellowship in mathematics at Clark University and gained his Ph.D. there after only one year. He came to Princeton in 1924 from the University of Kansas, was named Fine Professor in 1933 and appointed department chairman in 1945; he continued in both offices until his retirement in 1953. Lefschetz was brought to Princeton by Dean Fine as part of a continuing effort to develop a first-rate mathematics department. After the newly founded Institute for Advanced Study took James W. Alexander II, Oswald Veblen, and John von Neumann from the University in the early 1930s, Lefschetz supplied the creative drive that maintained the department's research strength and the energy and imagination that led it to new heights. As chairman, the University Orator later said in presenting him for an honorary degree, he ruled ``with some pepper, much salt, and an invigorating and impetuous impishness.'' Under Lefschetz's dynamic guidance the

Mathematics Mathematics has been prominent in the Princeton curriculum since the founding of the College. In 1760, entering students were required to have an understanding of the rules of arithmetic, and underclassmen learned algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and conic sections. In 1853 a Boston newspaper reported that at Princeton the study of mathematics was carried on ``to an extent not excelled by any other college in the country.'' In the early years, instruction in mathematics was given by faculty members who generally taught other subjects as well. The first trained mathematician on the faculty was Walter Minto, who had studied in Pisa and had taught in Edinburgh before being called to Princeton in 1787. Not until a century later did the College again have on its faculty teachers who had studied in the European mathematical centers; the first was Henry Burchard Fine (A.B. Princeton 1880), who received his Ph.D. degree at Leipzig in 1885. Under the chairmanship, from 1929 to 1945, of Fine's successor, Luther P. Eisenhart, the department continued to make outstanding appointments of promising young mathematicians, such as Alonzo Church, a noted logician; Eugene P. Wigner, Thomas D. Jones Professor of Mathematical Physics and later a Nobel laureate; Salomon Bochner, known for the breadth of his contributions to many different areas of analysis; and Samuel S. Wilks, a distinguished mathematical statistician. With the permanent mathematical faculties and visiting members of the University and the Institute, Princeton became an intensely active center for mathematical research in the 1930s. Reporting on an International Congress of Mathematicians held in Oslo in 1936, a Norwegian newspaper ran this headline: ``Princeton is the mathematical center of the world but at the moment it is in Oslo.''

Solomon Lefschetz Memorial Lectures Month: September 2005 Date: September 89 Name: Solomon Lefschetz Memorial Lectures Location: CINVESTAV, Mexico city, Mexico. Description The Mathematics and Physics department have the pleasure to announce that Prof. Maxim Kontsevich (IHES, France) will deliver the Solomon Lefschetz Memorial Lectures this year. The late Prof. Solomon Lefschetz was closely associated with the development of mathematical research in Mexico. As a tribute to him and in his honor, our Centro de Investigacion has established the Solomon Lefschetz Memorial Lectures. Our practice has been to invite an eminent mathematician to our research center to give a series of lectures. The previous Lefschetz Lectures were given by Prof. J. Hale, M. F. Atiyah, E. Bombieri, S. S. Chern, J. Milnor, P. Mumford, W. Thurston, Y. G. Sinai, V. P. Maslov and S. Albeverio. Organizers
