The International Society for Mathematical Sciences is a mathematics society, primarily based in Japan. It was formerly known as the Japanese Association of Mathematical Sciences, and was founded in 1948 by Tatsujiro Shimizu. [1] [2]
The ISMS publishes a bimonthly scientific journal, Scientiae Mathematicae Japonicae ( ISSN 1346-0447), which was formed in 2001 from the merger of two journals previously published by the same society, Mathematica Japonica, founded in 1948, and Scientiae Mathematicae, which published nine issues over three volumes in 1998, 1999, and 2000. In addition the ISMS holds an annual meeting and publishes a Japanese language mathematics magazine, Kaiho, and a monthly newsletter, Notices from the ISMS.
Abraham Fraenkel was a German-born Israeli mathematician. He was an early Zionist and the first Dean of Mathematics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He is known for his contributions to axiomatic set theory, especially his additions to Ernst Zermelo's axioms, which resulted in the Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory.
The European Mathematical Society (EMS) is a European organization dedicated to the development of mathematics in Europe. Its members are different mathematical societies in Europe, academic institutions and individual mathematicians. The current president is Jan Philip Solovej, professor at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Copenhagen.
Ralph Henstock was an English mathematician and author. As an Integration theorist, he is notable for Henstock–Kurzweil integral. Henstock brought the theory to a highly developed stage without ever having encountered Jaroslav Kurzweil's 1957 paper on the subject.
The Polish Mathematical Society is the main professional society of Polish mathematicians and represents Polish mathematics within the European Mathematical Society (EMS) and the International Mathematical Union (IMU).
Đuro Kurepa was a Yugoslav and Serbian mathematician, university professor and academic.
Acta Mathematica is a peer-reviewed open-access scientific journal covering research in all fields of mathematics.
Joan Sylvia Lyttle Birman is an American mathematician, specializing in low-dimensional topology. She has made contributions to the study of knots, 3-manifolds, mapping class groups of surfaces, geometric group theory, contact structures and dynamical systems. Birman is research professor emerita at Barnard College, Columbia University, where she has been since 1973.
Indagationes Mathematicae is a Dutch mathematics journal.
Zinovy Reichstein is a Russian-born American mathematician. He is a professor at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. He studies mainly algebra, algebraic geometry and algebraic groups. He introduced the concept of essential dimension.
Compositio Mathematica is a monthly peer-reviewed mathematics journal established by L.E.J. Brouwer in 1935. It is owned by the Foundation Compositio Mathematica, and since 2004 it has been published on behalf of the Foundation by the London Mathematical Society in partnership with Cambridge University Press. According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2020 2-year impact factor of 1.456 and a 2020 5-year impact factor of 1.696.
Raymond Clare Archibald was a prominent Canadian-American mathematician. He is known for his work as a historian of mathematics, his editorships of mathematical journals and his contributions to the teaching of mathematics.
Péter Kiss was a Hungarian mathematician, Doctor of Mathematics, and professor of mathematics at Eszterházy Károly College, who specialized in number theory. In 1992 he won the Albert Szent-Györgyi Prize for his achievements.
Andor Kertész was a Hungarian mathematician and professor of mathematics at the Lajos Kossuth University (KLTE), Debrecen. He is the father of linguist András Kertész.
Mathematica Applicanda is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering applied mathematics. It was established in 1973 by the Polish Mathematical Society as Series III of the Annales Societatis Mathematicae Polonae, under the name Matematyka Stosowana. The first editor-in-chief was Marceli Stark. In 1999 the journal was renamed Matematyka Stosowana-Matematyka dla Społeczeństwa. Since 2012 its main issue is the electronic one with the name Mathematica Applicanda with ISSN 2299-4009.
