Roman Weil, co-chairman of the Oenonomy Society of the US and Professor at the University of Chicago, tested the controversial hypothesis that experienced wine drinkers " cannot distinguish in blind tastings the wine of years rated high from those of years rated low, or, if they can, they do not agree with the vintage chart's preferences " ( Weil ).

In mathematics, restriction of scalars ( also known as " Weil restriction ") is a functor which, for any finite extension of fields L / k and any algebraic variety X over L, produces another variety Res < sub > L / k </ sub > X, defined over k. It is useful for reducing questions about varieties over large fields to questions about more complicated varieties over smaller fields.

5 ) The Weil restriction of a ( commutative ) group variety is again a ( commutative ) group variety, if L is separable over k. Aleksander Momot applied restriction of scalars on group varieties and obtained numerous generalizations of classical results from transcendence theory.

His book L ' analysis situs et la géométrie algébrique from 1924, though opaque foundationally given the current technical state of homology theory, was in the long term very influential ( one could say that it was one of the sources for the eventual proof of the Weil conjectures, through SGA7 ).

The conjecture relates arithmetic data associated to an elliptic curve E over a number field K to the behaviour of the Hasse – Weil L-function L ( E, s ) of E at s = 1.

The method was patented by Charles L. Weil on June 8, 1915.

Weil identifies it as being `` rootless '', Guardini as being `` placeless '', Riesman as being `` lonely ''.

Ralph Snyderman and Andrew Weil state that " integrative medicine is not synonymous with complementary and alternative medicine.

André Weil (; 6 May 1906 – 6 August 1998 ) was an influential French mathematician of the 20th century, renowned for the breadth and quality of his research output, its influence on future work, and the elegance of his exposition.

The philosopher Simone Weil was his sister.

His only sibling was Simone Weil, a famous philosopher.

Weil studied in Paris, Rome and Göttingen and received his doctorate in 1928.

Weil was in Finland when World War II broke out ; he had been traveling in Scandinavia since April 1939.

Weil was mistakenly arrested in Finland at the outbreak of the Winter War suspected of spying ; however, accounts of his life having been at danger have been shown to be exaggerated.

Weil returned to France via Sweden and the United Kingdom, and was detained at Le Havre in January 1940.

In January 1941, Weil and his family sailed from Marseille to New York.

Mordell's theorem had an ad hoc proof ; Weil began the separation of the infinite descent argument into two types of structural approach, by means of height functions for sizing rational points, and by means of Galois cohomology, which was not to be clearly named as that for two more decades.

The so-called Weil conjectures were hugely influential from around 1950 ; they were later proved by Bernard Dwork, Alexander Grothendieck, Michael Artin, and Pierre Deligne, who completed the most difficult step in 1973.

The Weil conjecture on Tamagawa numbers proved resistant for many years.

He picked up another credited Weil conjecture, around 1967, which later under pressure from Serge Lang ( resp.

Taniyama – Weil conjecture ) based on a roughly formulated question of Taniyama at the 1955 Nikkō conference.

He discovered that the so-called Weil representation, previously introduced in quantum mechanics by Irving Segal and Shale, gave a contemporary framework for understanding the classical theory of quadratic forms.

Indian ( Hindu ) thought had great influence on Weil.

One of his most celebrated achievements is the discovery of the first arithmetic Weil cohomology theory: the ℓ-adic étale cohomology.

This key result opened the way for a proof of the Weil conjectures, ultimately completed by his student Pierre Deligne.

On the advice of Cartan and Weil, he moved to the University of Nancy where he wrote his dissertation under Laurent Schwartz in functional analysis, from 1950 to 1953.

The first chief rabbi of the country Rabbi Asher Lowe was from ( Durlach ) Karlsruhe, Nethaneel Weil was a rabbi in Karlsruhe from 1750 until his death.

Weil wrote throughout her life, though most of her writings did not attract much attention until after her death.

Weil was called to a transport in November 1942, but he decided not to go, settling rather on staging his own death by pretending to commit suicide.

Undeterred, Weil worked continuously until his death from cancer in 1959.

Dr. Weil used wines ranging from four to 17 years beyond their vintage with 240 wine drinkers and found that the tasters could not distinguish between wines of good and bad vintages, ( except for Bordeaux wines ), and even when they could make a distinction, the match between the tasters ' individual assessments and the charts ' rankings were little better than tossing a coin.

Weil does not consider a vintage chart to be useless.

Peterson's dramatic ballad, " I Could Have Loved You So Well ", written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil and produced by Spector, only reached # 57 on the U. S. chart.

Gil Ozir, Vice President of Marketing for Raymond Weil, a luxury watchmaker and one of Gulbis ' endorsement deals, was quoted as saying, " Once she starts winning, she's going to be a megastar ".

He advocates for an anarchism in line with such intellectuals as " Orwell, la philosophe Simone Weil, Jean Grenier, la French Theory avec Foucault, Deleuze, Bourdieu, Guattari, Lyotard, le Derrida de Politiques de l ' amitié et du Droit à la philosophie, mais aussi Mai 68 " which for him was " a Nietzschean revolt in order to put an end to the " One " truth, revealed, and to put in evidence the diversity of truths, in order to make disappear ascetic Christian ideas and to help arise new possibilities of existence ".
