A couple of years ago I spent a few days to russify MiKTeX 1.11. To do that, one had to download a lot of files, unzip them, apply some patches, put files in the correct places, edit some of them, run TeX a few times and so on. After I did that, I collected all the necessary files in a package, rumik.zip (886 KB), which was very easy to use - just downoad it, unzip in the localtexmf directory, and run initexmf dump. Since the installation procedure was so easy, Rumik became popular very fast, especially among mathematicians, i.e. people who need TeX the most. Later versions of MiKTeX contain all the necessary fonts, corrected babel, hyphenation patterns etc., so now Rumik became unnecessary. Also, because of the changing of the directory structure of MiKTeX, Rumik doesn't work with MiKTeX 2.1. Many people emailed me asking what to do. Fortunately, one can make MiKTeX 2.1 able to produce Russian text, without Rumik, in a few simple steps. Here they are. Go to Start-Programs-MikTeX-MiKTeX Options. Select Language tab.

Next: British Women in Mathematics Up: REPORTS OF MEETINGS HELD Previous: Report on the 1996 FRANCO-RUSSIAN MEETING A franco-russian conference organized jointly by ``Femmes et Mathématiques" and the Russian Association for Women Mathematicians took place in Luminy from Decmber 2 to December 6 1996. There were eleven Russian women mathematicians who came from various parts of Russia, and around twenty french women mathematicians attending the meeting. Organising this conference was not an easy matter for we came across lots of difficulties, some of which were overcome thanks to plenty of optimism and thanks to all the energy the participants and the organizers put into this project! Let me thank them again here! The meeting was organized around three topics (the first two of which covered two days each, the last one only one day): partial differential equations, geometry of manifolds teaching methods at university The idea was to have introductory talks in the morning and more specialized talks in the afternoon. It somehow was difficult to put into practice, since the specialized talks were concerned with very different problems even within each of the general topics mentioned above. However, the topics of the talks seemed to have enough in common to stimultate discussions between the participants, which was one of the main aims of this meeting. All participants showed a lot of enthusiasm which contributed to making the atmosphere in the conference very pleasant. We hope this meeting gave the russian and french participants an oportunity to exchange ideas and we wish it will initiate deeper scientific contacts on the long run between french and russian matehmaticians and particularly women mathematicians.

by Loren R. Graham History of Science Society Newsletter, Volume 18 No. 4 (Supplement 1989) Email: hssexec@u.washington.edu FOREWORD This is the fourth guide in the series Teaching the History of Science: Resources and Strategies, published under the auspices of the Committee on Education by the History of Science Society. These guides, written by specialists, are intended for the use of historians of science as well as general historians and any other teachers who wish to begin to revise a history of science course or to incorporate new topics into an existing course. The guides published in the Newsletter will be published, with other essays, as a pamphlet in mid 1989. Earlier guides appeared in the July 1986, April 1987, and Supplement 1988 issues of the Newsletter. The editorial board for each guide is drawn from the Society's Committee on Education. The committee welcomes comments on the value of these guides, as well as on suggested topics for future guides. INTRODUCTION The history of science and technology in Russian and the Soviet Union is a field of study that is underdeveloped in the West, and good books on the subject in English or other West European languages are correspondingly rare. Nonetheless, a number sources exist, as the following bibliography illustrates. Because of the youth of the field and the difficulty in gaining access to archives, the quality of existing works is uneven and the coverage spotty. In recent years this situation has begun to improve. There is a small but perceptible growth of interest in the history of Russian and Soviet science and technology in research universities. At present a handful of American universitiesMIT, Harvard, Pennsylvania, Northwestern, Georgetown, Columbia, Arizona, Oregon Stateoffer occasional courses on the subject, but as yet no more than three or four senior American historians are working full-time in the field.

92. Russian Scientist To Join Purdue Research Efforts Taking advantage of the traditional interest of russian pure mathematiciansin applied problems, KeilisBorok established the Institute for Earthquake http://www.math.purdue.edu/generalInfo/newsletter/fall96/russian-scientist.html

Russian Scientist to Join Purdue Research Efforts Professor Keilis-Borok is a member of numerous academies, including the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1969), the U.S. National Academy of Sciences (1971), the Russian Academy of Sciences (1988), the Royal Astronomical Society (1989), the Austrian Academy of Sciences (1992), the Pontifical Academy of Sciences (1995 and member of the Council since 1996). Other honors include a Doctor Honoris Causa from the University of Paris in 1995. He was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences simultaneously with Solzhenitsyn, Sakharov, and Kantorovich (a Nobel Prize winner in economics). Keilis-Borok has been a leading figure in international scientific cooperation, serving as president and chair to several international organizations of which he is a member. His cooperative involvement with the U.S. has included efforts to enhance the capability of detecting nuclear explosions (he boldly ignored contentious political disputes). He also participated in scientific efforts with Israeli scientists, which continued in spite of the Six Day War and the subsequent freeze in relations between Israel and the USSR. Keilis-Borok was a leader of the group that introduced into the study of seismicity new theoretically-based nonlinear dynamics, with its concepts of chaos and self-organization, and a new culture of data analysis (pattern recognition of infrequent events). This is among the few branches of artificial intelligence which outperform humans in the study of processes of high complexity. Famous Russian mathematician I. Gelfand, together with distinguished American geophysicists F. Press and L. Knopoff, participated in the application of these techniques to the analysis of seismicity. KeilisBorok established a new school of earthquake prediction researchÑseveral prediction algorithms are currently being tested.

Two scholarships will be awarded in the spring competition: deadline April 15, 2003 One scholarship will be awarded in the fall competition: deadline September 30, 2003 Details to submit an application Poster: The Independent Moscow University The Independent University of Moscow (IUM) is a small, elite institution of higher learning focusing primarily on mathematics. It was founded in 1991 at the initiative of a group of well known Russian research mathematicians, who now comprise the Academic Council of the University. Professors Pierre Deligne and Robert McPherson, both permanent members of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, also played crucial roles in founding the Independent University. The American Mathematical Society has had a special (although not official) relationship with the institution as well, arranging for help in obtaining publications and helping financially during one especially difficult period. The Math in Moscow program Recently, the Independent University of Moscow created a new program, offering foreign students (undergraduate or beginning graduate students specializing in mathematics and/or computer science) the chance to spend a semester in Moscow studying within its MATH in MOSCOW program:

94. Meeting Of The Executive Committee Of IMU official sections organized by the PC. 4. Books/Journals for RussianMathematicians. The Executive Committee decided to continue http://elib.zib.de/IMU/bulletin/40/ec.meeting.html

Meeting of the Executive Committee of IMU The Executive Committee of IMU met on April 11-12, 1996, at the Courant Institute, New York, USA. The President of IMU, Professor David Mumford has invited the President of the Program Committee, Prof. Philip Griffiths, the Organizer Committee of ICM/98, Prof. Martin Groetschel, a member of ICMI, Prof. Jeremy Kilpatrick and the President of the European Math. Society (EMS), Prof. J.P.Bourguignon, as well as officials of the American Math. Society (AMS), to attend different parts of the Executive Committee of IMU meeting. Excerpts of this meeting: Program ``Turn of the Century" Program Committee Joint activities at ICM-98 (resolutions of the General Assembly,1994) Books/Journals for Russian Mathematicians Joint Sections with AMS Committee on Electronic Publishing Technical Advisory Committee ... "IMU Committee on Electronic Publishing" Terms of Reference 1. Program ``Turn of the Century" A number of meetings, including possibly some special ones, for the year 2000 to be co-sponsored or supported by IMU, were discussed. Some of them corresponds to periodic activities and thus they have already been scheduled, like ICME and the EMS Congress. The idea of having meetings in different regions of the world was considered, such as supporting a meeting in Latin America and possibly one in Asia and one in Africa. The IMU may also provide some financial support to other meetings/activities. J.P.Bourgignon also asked the EC to consider a project "The memory of mathematicians" to collect interesting private mathematical communications of main mathematicians. This would be jointly sponsored by IMU and EMS and possibly UNESCO. On the other hand, the EC asked Prof. Bourguignon about the possibility of planning a meeting in Europe, maybe Greece, on the History of Mathematics, to be jointly sponsored by IMU and EMS.

95. Her Other Work The role which she played in introducing Western European ideas to Russianmathematicians is viewed by some as, one of her greatest, most enduring http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Projects/Ellison/Chapters/Ch16.html

Sofia Kovalevskaya MacTutor Index Previous page (Her Remaining Years) Contents Next page (Rumours/Problems/Barriers) Her other work An opinion which Sofia shared with Weierstrass was that, it is impossible to be a mathematician without having the soul of a poet ... Whilst Sofia's literary talents didn't come close to matching her mathematical abilities, she nevertheless did have a gift in this area. Throughout her life she wrote everything from poetry to theatrical reviews, articles on scientific themes, plays and novellas. Whilst living with Mittag-Leffler for a time in Stockholm she developed a close friendship with his sister Anna Charlotte who was also a well known writer and advocate of women's rights. In 1887 this was to lead to a collaboration on a play entitled The Struggle for Happiness It was during the 1880s that Sofia would compose the memoirs of her childhood which have been described as, lyrical, evocative, beautifully written. Recollections of Childhood as this work became known, details Sofia's early childhood in St. Petersburg as well as her time at the family estate of Palibino. On publication it produced something of a sensation amongst the reading public in Russia. One critic went so far as to say that she, should without doubt occupy one of the most prominent places among Russian authoresses As is the case with other memoirs which deal with childhood years, large parts of this work which look at her first fifteen years are not particularly accurate representations of the true course of events. Sofia's tendency to overdramatise her life also means that her claims about having had an unhappy childhood cannot be taken completely seriously. This work is nevertheless hugely valuable not only as a guide to Sofia's early life, but due to the fact that unlike works of a similar type by Tolstoy, Aksakov and Tergenev, it deals with the childhood of a Russian girl.
