BACKGROUND Finally, we mention a positive solution of a similar problem for free solvable groups by A.Myasnikov [Extended Nielsen transformations and the trivial group. (Russian) Mat. Zametki 35 (1984), 491495. ] Sela [Ann. of Math. (2) 141 (1995), 217283] has solved the isomorphism problem for torsion-free hyperbolic groups that do not split (as an amalgamated product or an HNN extension) over the trivial or the infinite cyclic group. It is not known however which one-relator groups are hyperbolic (cf. problem (06)). Earlier partial results are [A.Pietrowski, The isomorphism problem for one-relator groups with non-trivial centre, Math. Z. 136 (1974), 95106] and [S.Pride, The isomorphism problem for two-generator one-relator groups with torsion is solvable, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 227 (1977), 109139]. We also note that two one-relator groups with relators r_1 and r_2 being isomorphic does not imply that r_1 and r_2 are conjugate by an automorphism of a free group, which deprives one from the most straightforward way of attacking this problem; see [J.McCool, A.Pietrowski, On free products with amalgamation of two infinite cyclic groups. J. Algebra 18 (1971), 377383]. The conjugacy problem for one-relator groups with torsion was solved by B.B.Newman [Some results on one-relator groups, Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. 74 (1968), 568-571]. Some other partial results are known; see e.g. [R.Lyndon, P.Schupp, Combinatorial Group Theory, Series of Modern Studies in Math. 89 Springer-Verlag, 1977] for a survey.

Professor BH Neumann AC FAA FRS (1909-2002) Professor Bernhard Neumann, a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science, celebrated his 90th birthday on 15 October 1999. He had played a dominant role in mathematics in Australia since his arrival in this country in 1962. Professor Neumann came to Australia to take up an appointment as the Foundation Chair of the Department of Mathematics within the Institute of Advanced Studies of the Australian National University. He and his late wife Hanna taught and influenced many young people with mathematical talent, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, and their influence spread downwards into the schools. Hanna was Professor and Head of the Department of Mathematics in the then School of General Studies (now the Faculties) at the ANU, and she was also a Fellow of the Academy. Bernhard Neumann's distinguished contributions to mathematics were many and varied, mostly on the theory of groups. His original work is to be found in over 100 papers, but in addition he is the author of two books and numerous reviews, and he wrote essays about a number of famous mathematicians. In his six-volume series, The Selected Works of B H Neumann and Hanna Neumann, are to be found fascinating commentaries of the life work of Hanna and himself, as well as about the many famous mathematicians and colleagues with whom they've been associated. Professor Neumann's long and distinguished career began in pre-war England, following his early studies to the doctorate level in Germany. By the time he arrived in Australia, his eminence had already been recognised through his election to Fellowship of the Royal Society.

Hanna Neumann Memorial Lecture, AAMT Sydney, 18 January 2005 Challenging mathematics and its role in the learning process Peter Taylor Australian Mathematics Trust University of Canberra ABSTRACT Challenge is not only an important component of the learning process but also a vital skill for life. People are confronted with challenging situations each day and need to deal with them. Fortunately the processes in solving mathematics challenges (abstract or otherwise) involve certain types of reasoning which generalise to solving challenges encountered in every day life. Mathematics has a vital role in the classroom not only because of direct application of the syllabus material but because of the reasoning processes the student can develop. ICMI has commissioned a study to investigate the issues of challenge in the learning process. The speaker is one of the co-Chairs of this study, which is scheduled to have its Study Conference in 2006 and issue its findings as a Study Volume in 2008. In this talk Peter will describe some of the attempts to define the concept of challenge itself and discuss various related issues which are being identified in the context of challenge and the learning process. HANNA NEUMANN First I would like to briefly comment on the significance of Hanna Neumann. Many of us here have got to know BH Neumann well over the last 30 years and the pervasive positive influence he had on mathematics in this country. Hanna died much earlier and less of us who are here now knew her directly.

NZMS Newsletter 47, December 1989 CENTREFOLD Professor Bernhard Neumann Bernhard Hermann Neumann was born in Berlin on 15 October 1909. After studying at the Herderschule in Berlin and at the University of Freiburg, he obtained his Dr.phil. degree from the University of Berlin in 1932. He emigrated to Britain in 1933 (during a time of political upheaval in Germany), and continued his studies at Cambridge, where he was awarded a Ph.D. in 1935. Meanwhile he became secretly engaged to Hanna von Caemmerer, who had been a fellow student in Berlin, and in 1938 she also left for Britain, where they married. At that time Bernhard held a temporary assistant lecturership at Cardiff, but at the beginning of the Second World War he was interned for some weeks (as an enemy alien); upon his release he joined the British Army, serving in the Intelligence Corps from 1940 to 1945. In 1946 he was appointed as a lecturer at the University of Hull, and in 1948 he accepted a position at the University of Manchester, where he stayed for the next thirteen years. Hanna and Bernhard had five children: Irene, Peter, Barbara, Walter and Daniel. Hanna was able to complete her doctorate at the University of Oxford, and after the war she became an assistant lecturer at Hull, and later (in 1958) she too obtained a position in Manchester. During these years both Hanna and Bernhard established fine reputations as mathematicians, with common research interests in algebra. In particular, their joint paper with Graham Higman (published in 1949) on embedding theorems for groups is a famous one, underlying the theory of what are now known as HNN-extensions. Bernhard was awarded the Wiskundig Genootschap te Amsterdam Prize in 1949, and the Adams Prize of the University of Cambridge in 1952. He gained a D.Sc. from the University of Manchester in 1954 (and Hanna the same from the University of Oxford in 1955), and in 1959 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.

REFLECTIONS ON THE FORTY-YEAR CAREER OF A HUSBAND-AND-WIFE TEAM OF MATHEMATICIANS Luise-Charlotte Kappe Department of Mathematical Sciences, SUNY at Binghamton Binghamton, NY 13902-6000 Abstract. This speech was given on May 18, 2002 at the dinner banquet of the XXVI-th OSU-Denison Conference honoring Wolfgang Kappe on the occasion of his retirement. "It's a wonderful life" was the title of a talk I gave a month ago at the MAA Seaway Section meeting. Its subtitle: reflections on the career of a mathematician. This time my subtitle is: Reflections on the forty-year career of a husband-and-wife team of mathematicians. Very appropriately so, since we are celebrating our fortieth wedding anniversary in two weeks! Compared to the Neumann's, we were lucky. We had always our jobs at the same university and only had to pull up our stakes once going from Germany to the US, by the way, the same year the Neumann's moved to Australia. But let's start at the beginning: "Once upon a time" Wolfgang and Liselotte met where all mathematicians meet, that mythical place Oberwolfach. By the end of 1959 we both had gravitated to the Black Forest area within a month of each other, Wolfgang as one of the mathematicians in residence in Oberwolfach while writing his dissertation with Reinhold Baer in Frankfurt, and me starting my dissertation with Theodor Schneider in Freiburg. I heard about Wolfgang for the first time when Schneider mentioned that Kappe and Kegel, the two resident assistants in Oberwolfach, are named after two geometric objects, namely the cap of a sphere and the cone. Wolfgang heard about me for the first time from Erich Glock, my future brother-in-law and also a mathematician in residence in Oberwolfach. Once coming back from a visit in Freiburg, Erich reported that Theodor Schneider had brought along "ein Fraeulein Menger". Wolfgang replied as any Berliner would have: " Na und! (= so what!).

37. Bernhard Hermann Neumann There he met his wife hanna, also a mathematician. neumann was awarded his The neumanns were fortunate in that hanna neumann was soon able to join him http://www.stetson.edu/~efriedma/periodictable/html/Nb.html

Bernhard Hermann Neumann Bernhard Neumann attended school in Berlin at the Herderschule before entering the University of Freiburg to study mathematics in 1928. He studied for his doctorate at the University of Berlin. There he was influenced by an impressive collection of teachers including Schmidt, Robert Remak and Schur. There he met his wife Hanna, also a mathematician. Neumann was awarded his doctorate by the University of Berlin in 1932. When Hitler came to power in 1933, life in Germany became very hard for those of Jewish origin, and Neumann emigrated to England. In England he studied at the University of Cambridge, receiving a Ph.D. from Cambridge in 1935. Even a mathematician as outstanding as Neumann was not guaranteed a lecturing post at that time and he spent 2 years unemployed before being appointed to an assistant lectureship in Cardiff in 1937. In 1940 he joined the Pioneer Corps, then the Royal Artillery, and lastly the Intelligence Corps for the duration of the war. After the war ended, Neumann searched for an academic appointment again, and this time was appointed a lecturer at Hull in 1946. The Neumanns were fortunate in that Hanna Neumann was soon able to join him on the staff as an assistant lecturer. In 1948, Neumann was appointed to the University of Manchester. In1961, Hanna was Neumann accepted an offer from the Australian National University of a professorship and the head of the mathematics department at the Institute of Advanced Studies. He retired in 1974.
