The Search for Mathematical Roots 1870-1940.

When Martin Gardner retired from writing his " Mathematical Games " column for Scientific American magazine, Hofstadter succeeded him in 1981 – 1983 with a column entitled Metamagical Themas ( an anagram of " Mathematical Games ").

In 1923, while writing the appendix for the Italian edition of the book The Mathematical Theory of Relativity by A. Kopff, Enrico Fermi pointed out, for the first time, that hidden inside the famous Einstein equation (), there was an enormous amount of nuclear potential energy to be exploited.

A draft specification for The IBM Mathematical Formula Translating System was completed by mid-1954.

" In 1976 the Mathematical Association of America established the George Pólya Award " for articles of expository excellence " published in the College Mathematics Journal.

In 1987 the London Mathematical Society established the Pólya Prize for " outstanding creativity in, imaginative exposition of, or distinguished contribution to, mathematics within the United Kingdom.

Mathematical induction is a method of mathematical proof typically used to establish that a given statement is true for all natural numbers ( positive integers ).

When his colleague Richard Courant wrote the now classic Methods of Mathematical Physics including some of Hilbert's ideas, he added Hilbert's name as author even though Hilbert had not directly contributed to the writing.

The first is the astronomical treatise now known as the Almagest ( in Greek, Ἡ Μεγάλη Σύνταξις, " The Great Treatise ", originally Μαθηματικὴ Σύνταξις, " Mathematical Treatise ").

Mathematical historians now credit both with the paternity of the formula to solve cubic equations, referring to it as the " Cardano-Tartaglia Formula ".

The first is the astronomical treatise now known as the Almagest ( in Greek, Ἡ Μεγάλη Σύνταξις, " The Great Treatise ", originally Μαθηματικὴ Σύνταξις, " Mathematical Treatise ").

The Faculty of Science was formed in 1893 from Chairs removed from the Faculties of Arts and Medicine, and subsequently divided in 2000 to form the three Faculties of Biomedical and Life Sciences, Computing Science, Mathematics and Statistics ( now Information and Mathematical Sciences ) and Physical Sciences.

Dana Stewart Scott ( born October 11, 1932 ) is the emeritus Hillman University Professor of Computer Science, Philosophy, and Mathematical Logic at Carnegie Mellon University ; he is now retired and lives in Berkeley, California.

Another mathematician and philosopher by the name of George Boole published a paper in 1847 called ' The Mathematical Analysis of Logic ' that describes an algebraic system of logic, now known as Boolean algebra.

* 1937 First Director of Cambridge University Mathematical Laboratory ( now Cambridge University Computing Laboratory ) with Maurice Wilkes as researcher.

Ambisonics was invented by Michael Gerzon of the Mathematical Institute, Oxford, who – with Professor Peter Fellgett of the University of Reading, David Brown, John Wright and John Hayes of the now defunct IMF Electronics, and building on the work of other researchers – developed the theoretical and practical aspects of the system in the early 1970s.

This was followed by the creation of Waikato Management School in 1972, Computer Science and Computing Services ( which ultimately became the Faculty of Computing and Mathematical Sciences ) in 1973, and the establishment of the School ( now Faculty ) of Law in 1990.

The cause of the Analytical Society had now triumphed, and the Cambridge Mathematical Journal had been instituted by Gregory and Robert Leslie Ellis.

For his outstanding research he was awarded in 2009 the Bogolyubov Memorial Medal by the Ukrainian Mathematical Congress in Kiev and in 1997 he was awarded the Prize of the Republic of Slovenia for Research ( now called the Zois Prize ) from the Slovenian government.

In the June 1968 edition of Scientific American, Martin Gardner described in his " Mathematical Games " column a game by C. L. Baker, that is now known as Baker's Game.

He became a professor at the University, while also working at LOMI, the Leningrad Department of the Steklov Mathematical Institute ( now PDMI, Petersburg Department of the Mathematical Institute ).
