Extractions: SJSU Math Department Colloquium Series Spring 2004 is pleased to present a talk by Ruth Moufang and the foundations of geometry Wednesday , May 5, 4:00 pm, MH 234 Abstract: A less fancy title for this talk is "How to draw a tiled floor". The projective geometry of tiled floors was understood (to some extent) by Renaissance artists, but the first to isolate the geometric axiom involved was Ruth Moufang, around 1930. She showed that the structure of a tiling picture depends on a special case of Desargues' theorem. Following up this investigation, she discovered a new and deeper foundation for projective geometry in the so-called "little Desargues' theorem". This allows projective planes to be coordinatized, not only by real numbers, complex numbers, and quaternions, but also by octonions. Refreshments precede the talk from 3:30 - 3:55 p.m. in MH 331B (new room). Students are particularly encouraged to attend the talk and to come and have refreshments beforehand!

Extractions: Résumé : Ever since the result of Philip Hall characterizing solubility for finite groups in terms of arithmetical statements about orders of subgroups, there has been interest in finding properties that distinguish the finite groups that are soluble from those that are not. Three such properties will be discussed in the lecture.

Extractions: Quelle: http://www.didaktik.mathematik.uni-wuerzburg.de/gdm/mitteilungen/mit64.html Bisher wurde gewöhnlich angenommen, daß Emmy Noether als erste in Deutschland geborene Frau an einer deutschen Universität in Mathematik promovierte. Studien im Universitätsarchiv Heidelberg erbrachten, daß bereits 1895 Marie Gernet (1865-1924) mit einer Dissertation bei Leo Königsberger, bei dem schon Sofja Kowalewskaja 1869 Vorlesungen gehört hatte, zur Doktorwürde geführt worden war. Der Vortrag beleuchtete das Promotionsverfahren, wobei Marie Gernet in der ersten mündlichen Doktorprüfung (Nov. 1894) im Fach Mechanik scheiterte und die Wiederholungsprüfung bestand, zeigte ihr Engagement bei der Reform des Mädchengymnasiums in Karlsruhe, an dem sie bis zu ihrem Lebensende tätig war, und bettete diesen Lebensweg einer promovierten Mathematikerin bzw. Mathematiklehrerin in die Entwicklung des mathematischen Frauenstudiums und der Promotionen von Frauen seit dieser Zeit (in Deutschland bis 1933) ein. Literatur:

While somewhat neglected due to their nonassociativity, they stand at the crossroads of many interesting fields of mathematics. Here we describe them and their relation to Clifford algebras and spinors, Bott periodicity, projective and Lorentzian geometry, Jordan algebras, and the exceptional Lie groups. We also touch upon their applications in quantum logic, special relativity and supersymmetry. References: John F. Adams, On the non-existence of elements of Hopf invariant one

Extractions: The Red Cross and other charities also need your help. (Redirected from Loop (algebra) In abstract algebra , a quasigroup is a algebraic structure resembling a group in the sense that " division " is always possible. Quasigroups differ from groups mainly in that they need not be associative edit Formally, a quasigroup Q , *) is a set Q with a binary operation Q Q Q (that is, it is a groupoid or magma ), such that for all a and b in Q there are unique elements x and y in Q such that The unique solutions to these equations are often written x a b and y b a left and right division . In this encyclopedia, it will be assumed that a quasigroup is nonempty. A loop is a quasigroup with an identity element . It follows that each element of a loop has both a unique left inverse and a unique right inverse A Moufang loop (named after Ruth Moufang ) is a quasigroup ( L , *) satisfying for all a b and c in L . As the name suggests, Moufang loops are actually loops (a proof is given below).

Extractions: Regina Becker-Schmidt Women’s studies, Gender studies and Studies of Gender-based Societal Arrangements pick up at the establishment of contextual main points. In this paper, I will attempt to work through how the emphases are set in these three approaches. I assume herewith that this listing cannot be about a hierarchy in the sense of a scientific "advancement," nor, as is often implied, about women’s controversial political positions. This concerns mostly a differentiation, although I need to emphasize that there are smooth transitions. I believe that Women’s Studies, Gender Studies and Studies of Gender-based Societal Arrangements are in competition with each other. What measures are appropriate for a feminist research project depends on the questions asked. I will proceed by briefly introducing the three approaches and illustrating their central points through examples. For one thing, can we really say what it means to "be a woman?" In the history of western societies, men have had the power to define how this was to be understood. Teresa de Lauretis named the dilemmas in which women scientists find themselves when they try to replace negative prejudices about feminine abilities and inabilities, viewpoints and orientations (which were postulated by scientists of philosophy, nature and the humanities) with positive assessments. Researchers of women must, according to de Lauretis, rationally break through the historical shaping of "femininity," consider it as a product of discourse, which has come forth out of specific patriarchal conditions of power. Furthermore, it should be considered, against the naïve belief that women are the better half of humanity, that the effects of unequal treatment are not seen on the outside, but rather leave scars. How can we know what "authentic femininity" is, when it has not yet been able to develop unadulterated or fully autonomously? This is not to say that women have no self-awareness. We simply need to be aware of refractions which have formed cultural patterns of femininity. We are all subject to such patterns, even if we believe we have individually freed ourselves from them.
