Extractions: GRACE CHISHOLM YOUNG (1868-1944) Actividades Nació en Inglaterra, durante la época victoriana. Su familia gozaba de una privilegiada situación y de una elevada educación. Su padre había tenido un prestigioso cargo en el Departamento de Pesas y Medidas del gobierno británico y la madre era una consumada pianista que, junto a su padre, daba recitales de violín y de piano. Era la más pequeña de cuatro hermanos, todos eran hombres menos ella. Solo le enseñaban lo que quería aprender que era cálculo mental y música, que le enseñaba su madre hasta los diez años. A los diecisiete pasó los exámenes de Cambridge, pero no le dejaron seguir estudiando por ser mujer. Más tarde a los veintiún años decidió continuar estudiando. Escribió Primer libro de Geometría en el que opinaba sobre el interés que tenía enseñar geometría utilizando cuerpos geométricos en tres dimensiones. Quería estudiar medicina pero su madre no aprobó esa elección, por lo que con el apoyo de su padre comenzó a estudiar matemáticas. Entró en la universidad de Cambridge. Tuvo dificultades para asistir a clases de Arthur Cayley (1821-1895) pero obtuvo allí su licenciatura. Para proseguir su carrera como matemática debió abandonar su país, pues en él aún no era posible que una mujer se doctorase, e ir a Göttingen. Grace consiguió doctorarse, la podemos considerar como la primera mujer que consiguió doctorarse en matemáticas de una forma

Extractions: GRACE CHISHOLM YOUNG Del espacio al plano LA SALAMANDRA Y LA MOSCA En una esquina del techo de una habitación se encuentra una salamandra, y en la esquina diametralmente opuesta hay una mosca.¿Qué recorrido debe hacer la salamandra para llegar donde la mosca por la distancia más corta? La habitación mide 5 metros de largo, 4 de ancho y 3 de alto. La salamandra no es muy lista y si no la ayudamos no dará con la solución. Para resolver el problema lo primero que haremos es hacer un dibujo y poner nombres a los vértices de la habitación. La mosca está en la esquina A, y la salamandra en la esquina E. Podemos pensar que el camino más corto es recorrer primero la diagonal de la cara EB, y luego la arista BA. ¿Cuánto mide este camino? O seguir la arista EC y luego la diagonal CA. ¿Cuánto mide este camino? O seguir la arista EF y luego la diagonal FA. ¿Cuánto mide este camino? Pero estas no son las mejores soluciones ¡hay caminos más cortos! Para encontrarlos vamos a seguir una de las técnicas que usaba Grace Young en su libro de geometría. Haciendo el desarrollo de la habitación vemos que hay dos posibles caminos más entre A y E. Uno es cruzando la arista BC, que es la hipotenusa de un triángulo rectángulo de catetos 4 y 5+3=8. Y el otro es cruzando la arista CD, que es la hipotenusa de un triángulo rectángulo de catetos 5 y 4+3=7

Extractions: Laurie was raised mostly in Lausanne, Switzerland and attended Trinity College of Cambridge University in England. He received an M.A. in 1931 and was a Fellow of Trinity College from 1931 to 1935. He received a Sc.D. in 1938. Professor Young was Professor and Head of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Cape Town in South Africa from 1938 until 1948. Laurie joined the faculty of UW-Madison in 1948 as Professor of Mathematics. He had a distinguished career in Madison and was given the title ``Distinguished Research Professor'' in 1968. He was Chair of the Department from 1962 to 1964. He retired from the faculty in 1976. In 1984 Professor Young received an honorary degree from the Université de Paris-Dauphine. Laurie Young was internationally recognized for his contributions to Mathematics in the areas of measure theory, calculus of variations, control theory, and potential theory. His work on geometric measure theory led to what are now called Young measures associated with a weakly convergent sequence of functions. Young measures have found many applications, including to the theory of materials with nonconvex constitutive relations. He is the author of the book ``Lectures on the Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control Theory, published in 1969.

Extractions: Professor Emeritus Laurence Chisholm Young died at home in Madison on December 24, 2000 at the age of 95. Laurie, as he was affectionally called, was born in Gottingen, Germany and was the son of British mathematicians, William Henry Young and Grace Chisholm Young. His mother was one of the first women to receive a doctorate in mathematics and one of the first women to receive a doctorate in any field in Europe. Laurie was raised mostly in Lausanne, Switzerland and attended Trinity College of Cambridge University in England. He received an M.A. in 1931 and was a Fellow of Trinity College from 1931 to 1935. He received a Sc.D. in 1938. Professor Young was Professor and Head of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Cape Town in South Africa from 1938 until 1948. Laurie Young was internationally recognized for his contributions to measure theory, calculus of variations, control theory, and potential theory. His work on geometric measure theory led to what are now called Young measures associated with a weakly convergent sequence of functions. Young measures have found many applications, including to the theory of materials with nonconvex constitutive relations. He is the author of the book ``Lectures on the Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control Theory, published in 1969. In 1963 Professor Young began the Wisconsin Mathematical Talent Search (now called the Wisconsin Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Talent Search). In this program, which continues today, five mathematical problem sets are sent each year to Wisconsin high schools and middle schools. These mathematical problems do not require much background to solve but they do require ingenuity and insight. In this way it is hoped to identify and nurture mathematical talent among the students in the state and to promote interest in mathematics.

Extractions: The annual MAA 25-year banquet was held on August 4, 2001 at the Concourse Hotel in Madison. It included several events of Wisconsin note. There was a ceremony honoring Mary Ellen Rudin and Walter Rudin At the 25 year dinner, Sylvia Wiegand (nee Young) gave a talk on the mathematical heritage of Grace Chisholm Young (1868-1944) and William Henry Young (1863-1942). Grace Young was the first woman to receive a PhD in Germany and one of the first women mathematicians to do a substantial amount of research. Laurence Chisolm Young (1905-2000), who was Professor of Mathematics at Wisconsin from 1948 to 1976, was their son, and Sylvia was the daughter of Laurence Chisholm and Elizabeth Mary Dunnett. Other social events included a ``real'' Wisconsin Fish Boil. Our traditional ``Wisconsin Reunion'' was held on the 9th floor of Van Vleck Hall the first night of the meeting. As usual this was a lot of fun with so many of our former students in Madison. The last afternoon of the regular meeting and the day after there was a well-attended short course on Ramanujan's life and legacy, organized by Ken Ono, with Ken, Scott Ahlgren, George Andrews, Richard Askey, and Bruce Berndt as speakers.

http://homepages.compuserve.de/thweidenfeller/mathematiker/Young.htm

Extractions: Died: 7 July 1942 in Lausanne, Switzerland William Young 's father was Henry Young, a grocer, and his mother was Hephzibah Jeal. William was his parents' eldest son and he was brought up by his parents as a Baptist. He attended the City of London School where the headmaster was particularly fascinated by mathematics. This headmaster was Edwin A Abott, who was the author of the famous popular mathematical work Flatland. He immediately saw the potential that Young had for mathematics and he encouraged him in that direction. In 1881 Young entered Peterhouse, Cambridge to begin his undergraduate studies of mathematics. At Cambridge Young was an outstanding student showing far more mathematical ability than any of the other students in his year. However to achieve the position of First Wrangler (the top position in the list of First Class graduates) in the Mathematical Tripos required enormous dedication and training in the type of examination questions set in the Tripos. It would be fair to say that the First Wrangler was the most skilled at answering Tripos questions rather than the best mathematician and many of the great mathematicians who attended Cambridge failed to gain this distinction. Young was one such student for he made a very conscience decision that becoming First Wrangler was less important to him than having varied interests, both academic and sporting, at university. He was fourth wrangler in 1884. While at Cambridge he put aside the Baptist religion of his family and as baptised into the Church of England.

Extractions: Network for Good (Make a difference in the way girls view math, science and engineering). The young Grace loved to follow her "important" father around, helping him with his carpentry and visiting the British Department of Weights and Measures where he was head. She was one of the first female undergraduates admitted to Cambridge, although, at that time, women were still not receiving formal degrees. Grace Young and her husband did much of their mathematical research together ... while Grace took care of him as well as their six children.
