    The abstract notion of a Group underlies the concept of Symmetry. The work of Mikhael Gromov has completely revolutionized the study of infinite groups largely by "geometrizing" Group Theory. I will discuss the impact of Gromov's work in Group Theory.

    Fields Medal
    Historical Introduction
    This is the original letter by Fields creating the endowment for the medals that bear his name. It is thought to have been written during the few months before his death. Notice that no mention is made about the age of the recipients (currently there is a 40 year-old limit), and that the medal should not be attached to any person, private or public, meaning that it shouldn't bear anybody's name. It is proposed to found two gold medals to be awarded at successive International Mathematical Congress for outstanding achievements in mathematics. Because of the multiplicity of the branches of mathematics and taking into account the fact that the interval between such congresses is four years it is felt that at least two medals should be available. The awards would be open to the whole world and would be made by an International Committee. The fund for the founding of the medals is constituted by balance left over after financing the Toronto congress held in 1924. This must be held in trust by the Government or by some body authorized by government to hold and invest such funds. It would seem that a dignified method for handling the matter and one which in this changing world should most nearly secure permanency would be for the Canadian Government to take over the fund and appoint as his custodian say the Prime Minister of the Dominion or the Prime Minister in association with the Minister of Finance. The medals would be struck at the Mint in Ottawa and the duty of the custodian would be simply to hand over the medals at the proper time to the accredited International Committee.

    From December 4 to 5, Prof. Efim Zelmanov, who has awarded a Fields Medal in 1994, visited POSTECH for the 7th A-un Lecture. Prof. Zelmanov had three lectures in English for two days to POSTECH students and professors; Abstract Algebra in the 20th Century, Infinite Dimensional Algebras, and Profinite Groups.
    Prof. Zelmanov was born in Russia in 1955, and he attended Novosibirsk State University, obtaining his Ph.D. degree in 1980. He has taught at Oxford University, the University of Chicago, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and presently he teaches at Yale University. In addition, he became a tenure professor at the Korea Institute of Advanced Study in 1996.
    In 1987 Prof. Zelmanov solved one of the big open questions in the theory of Lie algebras. He proved that the Engel identity ad(y)n = implies that the algebra is necessarily nilpotent. This was a classical result for finite dimensional Lie algebras but he solved a big open problem when he proved that the result also held for infinite dimensional Lie algebras. In 1991, he went on to settle one of the most fundamental results in the theory of groups that had occupied group theorists throughout the 20th century. He solved the restricted Burnside problem. In 1994 Prof. Zelmanov was awarded a Fields Medal for these achievements at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Zurich. In addition to the Fields Medal, Prof. Zelmanov has received other honors for his outstanding works. He received the College de France Medal in January 1992 and the Andre Aizenstadt Prize in May 1996.

    Conference News
    Conference in Honor of Don Crowe
    On May 4-7, 2000 a conference, ``Recent Trends in Geometry and Symmetry" in honor of Emeritus Professor Donald W. Crowe was held in Madison. As the conference announcement said, Donald W. Crowe has spent over 40 years popularizing, researching and teaching the many facets of geometry, especially aspects of geometry related to symmetry. The purpose of this conference was to honor his efforts by providing a forum to discuss new trends and developments in the study of geometry and symmetry.
    Donald W. Crowe There were twenty-one contributed papers, including those given by former UW-Madison students Darrah Chavey (PhD 1984, D. W. Crowe), Gary Ebert (PhD 1975, R.H. Bruck), Leroy Dickey (PhD 1970, D. W. Crowe), Joe Malkevitch (PhD 1968, D. W. Crowe). In addition, there were sessions devoted to proposing and discussing problems, and exhibits of books and geometrical models and constructions. There were approximately 50 participants from all over. The conference was organized by Amir Assadi (UW), Steve Bauman (UW), Joseph Malkevitch (York College (CUNY)), Dorothy Washburn (Maryland Institute, College of Art), and Bob Wilson (UW). Funding support came from the UW Mathematics Department and from NSF. Cambridge University Press donated a large number of geometry-related books for use at the conference and placement in the Stephen Cole Kleene Mathematics Library at UW-Madison.
