Tell me when this page is updated In 1606 the Lord President of Munster, Sir Henry Brouncker, obtained a commission to take action against the mayors of corporate towns who refused to take the Oath of Supremacy. The four Waterford mayors marked thus were elected in succession but having refused to take the oath were arrested and sent to Cork gaol. Heavy fines were also levied on them and they were made to pay the legal costs. Eventually Sir Peter Aylward took the oath and became the mayor. In 1612 King James ordered Lord Deputy Chichester to seize the liberties of any town left without magistrates. In 1616 the administration of Waterford was in chaos. Eight mayors marked thus had been elected and refused to take the oath. In the following year four more acted in similar fashion before the government acted. Chichester entered the city, seized the charters and dissolved the corporation. From then until the death of James in 1625 the city was administered by government appointees. Between 1651 and 1656 the corporation was dissolved by Cromwell's son-in-law, General Henry Ireton and the city was placed under military law and administered by commissioners.

J ohn Evelyn's frontispiece in the "History of the Royal Society" (1667) by Thomas Sprat, Bishop of Rochester, depicts a bust of Charles 11. Founder and Patron, on a pedestal: on the left is the figure of the first F.R.S., the Irish mathematician William Brouncker; on the right, that of Francis Bacon, Artium Instouratio (restorer of the arts). In the preface the poet Abraham Cowley F.R.S., in his "Ode to the Royal Society," wrote: "Bacon, like Moses, led us forth at last." Sprat confessed that he himself would have preferred "no other preface but some of Bacon's writings." Bacon was basically a contemplative philosopher, but he chose to be a man of affairs in the world-he had two conflicting ambitions, to hold books and to raise a gavel. Although he became successfully Sir Francis at 42, Baron Verulam of Verulam (after the capital of Roman Britain) at 57, and Viscount St. Albans at 60, he is represented more truthfully by his burial monument in St. Michael's Church, St. Albans, with the inscription: "sic sedebat" ("thus he used to sit"). He was born January 21, 1561 in York House, London. His father, Sir Nicholas, was Lord Keeper of the Seal. He was from landed gentry; his favorite abode was Gorhamsbury, 2 miles from St. Albans. At 13 Francis entered Trinity College, University of Cambridge; a stronghold of the English Protestant Reformation. A good, but not outstanding student, he left without a degree two years later. He was unreliable with his many benefactions to Trinity, but a statue of him stands in its ante-chapel. His

Pure Maths Research Newsletter 8 The Open University, November 2000 Congratulations to Gwyneth Stallard on the award of a Whitehead Prize by the London Mathematical Society! This prestigious award is made in recognition of her work in and influence on mathematics. The following is the citation made by the LMS in awarding the prize. Citation for Gwyneth M. Stallard Whitehead Prize is awarded to Dr. G.M. Stallard of the Open University for her fundamental contributions to conformal dynamics. Her work is of very high quality in an area that is intensively competitive internationally: it is characterised by a mastery of hard analytic technique together with a first class grounding in classical analysis. J(f) of transcendental entire and meromorphic functions f . Her results on the range of possible values of J(f) are a real tour de force : not only does she show that every value d in the interval (1,2] may be realised as the Hausdorff dimension of some entire function, but she also provides the first explicit determination of any non-integral Hausdorff dimension of a Julia set of a transcendental entire function. Since J(f) has dimension at least one, the only open question for entire functions is whether

Chapter 3, Part 2 Gregoire de Saint-Vincent Saint-Vincent was born at Ghent in 1584, became a Jesuit teacher practicing in Rome, Prague, and later in Spain. Europe was in turmoil at this time, and as a result of his uprootings, Saint-Vincent became separated from his papers. In them he had the keys to solving the quadrature of the hyperbola, and, he believed, the squaring of the circle as well. His method was correct in the former case, not so in the latter. Since the hyperbola is asymptotic and thus open-ended, we need to define other boundaries in order to have a finite area to measure. In addition to y = 1/x, we arbitrarily make those boundaries the x-axis, and the lines x = 1 and x = b, where b, now known as the upper limit of integration, can be any positive number. In his Geometrical Work on the Squaring of the Circle and of Conic Sections , published in 1647, some 25 years after his discovery, Saint-Vincent advanced the notion that if the upper limits were increased by a factor, that is, if they grew geometrically, the associated areas would grow arithmetically. See Figure 1. Specifically, the area under 1/x from x = 1 to x = b is the natural logarithm (in base e) of the number b. The appendix also shows how this base number can be established.

University of Oxford Mathematical Institute Locator: Home Site Map About the Mathematical Institute Oxford Figures, Chapter 1: 800 years of mathematical traditions The mathematical research tradition While the early days of medieval Oxford represent a golden age of mathematical research on an international level, it was only in the seventeenth century that research began to be developed as an explicit activity in which dons and the better students might be expected to join. A research dimension was implicit in Henry Savile's statutes for the Savilian Chairs, since the professors were expected to develop their subjects alongside their teaching duties, and the early Savilian professors set a high standard in this respect. Notwithstanding the strong state in which Wallis left Oxford mathematics, and the capable mathematicians who were his immediate successors, research activity seemed to run into the ground from 1720 or so, and little more is heard in this respect until well into the next century. But how about research and original work under this famous system of yours, I can fancy someone saying. You do not seem to have promoted it much. Perhaps not! It had not yet occurred to people that systematic training for it was possible.
