Extractions: GRACE CHISHOLM YOUNG (1868-1944) Nació en Inglaterra, durante la época victoriana. Su familia gozaba de una privilegiada situación y de una elevada educación. Su padre había tenido un prestigioso cargo en el Departamento de Pesas y Medidas del gobierno británico y la madre era una consumada pianista que, junto a su padre, daba recitales de violín y de piano. Era la más pequeña de cuatro hermanos, todos eran hombres menos ella. Solo le enseñaban lo que quería aprender que era cálculo mental y música, que le enseñaba su madre hasta los diez años. A los diecisiete pasó los exámenes de Cambridge, pero no le dejaron seguir estudiando por ser mujer. Más tarde a los veintiún años decidió continuar estudiando. Escribió Primer libro de Geometría en el que opinaba sobre el interés que tenía enseñar geometría utilizando cuerpos geométricos en tres dimensiones. Quería estudiar medicina pero su madre no aprobó esa elección, por lo que con el apoyo de su padre comenzó a estudiar matemáticas. Entró en la universidad de Cambridge. Tuvo dificultades para asistir a clases de Arthur Cayley (1821-1895) pero obtuvo allí su licenciatura. Para proseguir su carrera como matemática debió abandonar su país, pues en él aún no era posible que una mujer se doctorase, e ir a Göttingen. Grace consiguió doctorarse, la podemos considerar como la primera mujer que consiguió doctorarse en matemáticas de una forma

Extractions: The young Grace loved to follow her "important" father around, helping him with his carpentry and visiting the British Department of Weights and Measures where he was head. She was one of the first female undergraduates admitted to Cambridge, although, at that time, women were still not receiving formal degrees. Grace Young and her husband did much of their mathematical research together ... while Grace took care of him as well as their six children.

Extractions: Professor Emeritus Laurence Chisholm Young died at home in Madison on December 24, 2000 at the age of 95. Laurie, as he was affectionally called, was born in Gottingen, Germany and was the son of British mathematicians, William Henry Young and Grace Chisholm Young. His mother was one of the first women to receive a doctorate in mathematics and one of the first women to receive a doctorate in any field in Europe. Laurie was raised mostly in Lausanne, Switzerland and attended Trinity College of Cambridge University in England. He received an M.A. in 1931 and was a Fellow of Trinity College from 1931 to 1935. He received a Sc.D. in 1938. Professor Young was Professor and Head of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Cape Town in South Africa from 1938 until 1948. Laurie Young was internationally recognized for his contributions to measure theory, calculus of variations, control theory, and potential theory. His work on geometric measure theory led to what are now called Young measures associated with a weakly convergent sequence of functions. Young measures have found many applications, including to the theory of materials with nonconvex constitutive relations. He is the author of the book ``Lectures on the Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control Theory, published in 1969. In 1963 Professor Young began the Wisconsin Mathematical Talent Search (now called the Wisconsin Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Talent Search). In this program, which continues today, five mathematical problem sets are sent each year to Wisconsin high schools and middle schools. These mathematical problems do not require much background to solve but they do require ingenuity and insight. In this way it is hoped to identify and nurture mathematical talent among the students in the state and to promote interest in mathematics.

Extractions: The annual MAA 25-year banquet was held on August 4, 2001 at the Concourse Hotel in Madison. It included several events of Wisconsin note. There was a ceremony honoring Mary Ellen Rudin and Walter Rudin At the 25 year dinner, Sylvia Wiegand (nee Young) gave a talk on the mathematical heritage of Grace Chisholm Young (1868-1944) and William Henry Young (1863-1942). Grace Young was the first woman to receive a PhD in Germany and one of the first women mathematicians to do a substantial amount of research. Laurence Chisolm Young (1905-2000), who was Professor of Mathematics at Wisconsin from 1948 to 1976, was their son, and Sylvia was the daughter of Laurence Chisholm and Elizabeth Mary Dunnett. Other social events included a ``real'' Wisconsin Fish Boil. Our traditional ``Wisconsin Reunion'' was held on the 9th floor of Van Vleck Hall the first night of the meeting. As usual this was a lot of fun with so many of our former students in Madison. The last afternoon of the regular meeting and the day after there was a well-attended short course on Ramanujan's life and legacy, organized by Ken Ono, with Ken, Scott Ahlgren, George Andrews, Richard Askey, and Bruce Berndt as speakers.

Reviewed by : Marge Murray, Book Review Editor, Department of Mathematics, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24061-0123; email: murray@calvin.math.vt.edu It has long been observed that women scientists and mathematicians who marry tend to marry other scientists and mathematicians. In an attempt to reconcile the personal and the professional, women's careers have often been subordinated to their husbands' or to the needs of a household and children. But the historian Margaret Rossiter has observed that in earlier times - particularly in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries when women's opportunities in science and mathematics were far more restricted than today - a woman scientist's marriage to a colleague occasionally enhanced her career and enabled her to make more creative contributions than she might otherwise. In fact, the most distinguished American women scientists in the first half of the twentieth century were disproportionately those married to other scientists. In some cases the woman gained greater access to facilities and communities in science through her connection to her husband. In some cases the wife was able to make contributions because she was accepted as her husband's assistant in research. And in some rare but notable cases, the woman formed a truly collaborative partnership with her husband and together they made major contributions to science for which both were recognized and rewarded.

Extractions: Mary Ellen Rudin Paracompactness Louisville, Kentucky 1984 Previous Index Next MARY ELLEN RUDIN is a professor emeritus at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where she held the Grace Chisholm Young and Hilidale Professorships. She was born in 1924 in Hillsboro, Texas. She completed both her undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Texas, where she worked with R. L. Moore. She was also greatly influenced by F. B. Jones. Afler receiving her PhD in 1949, Rudin taught at Duke University and then went with her husband, mathematician Walter Rudin, to the University of Rochester, and later to the University of Wisconsin. There she was a lecturer until 1971, when she became a full professor. Rudin's primary research area is set-theoretic topology, and she is particularly well known for her ability to construct counterexamples. Her Noether Lecture discussed several set-theoretic questions related to paracompactness. Metrizability in a topological space provides a great deal of structure: a metric space is, for example, paracompact. But if one does not require metrizability, and instead asks to what extent normality (assuming all spaces are Hausdorff) achieves the structure of paracompactness, one discovers a very complex world of counterexamples whose product with the closed unit interval is not normal. It is undecidable in Zermel-Frankel set theory whether there is a perfectly normal nonmetrizable manifold, and the question of whether every normal Moore space is metrizable has a more complex, unsatisfactory answer. Rudin's Noether Lecture explored these and similar problems in nonmetrizable topological spaces.
