Tea Time Numerical Analysis
Numerical methods are designed to approximate one thing or another. Sometimes roots, sometimes derivatives or definite integrals, or curves, or solutions of differential equations. As numerical methods produce only approximations to these things, it is important to have some idea how accurate they are. Sometimes accuracy comes down to careful algebraic analysis—sometimes careful analysis of t…

Dirichlet forms methods for Poisson point measures and Lévy processes : wit…
A simplified approach to Malliavin calculus adapted to Poisson random measures is developed and applied in this book. Called the "lent particle method" it is based on perturbation of the position of particles. Poisson random measures describe phenomena involving random jumps (for instance in mathematical finance) or the random distribution of particles (as in statistical physics). Thanks to the…

Disaffection with school mathematics
This account of my research will begin with an examination of my understandings of the importance of affect (and therefore disaffection) in learning or not learning mathematics. From here, I will review literature and schools of thought on affect in mathematics education, and develop my argument and position that motivation and emotion can be seen as the central foundations of the affect space.…

Recollections of a Jewish Mathematician in Germany
Abraham A. Fraenkel was a world-renowned mathematician in pre–Second World War Germany, whose work on set theory was fundamental to the development of modern mathematics. A friend of Albert Einstein, he knew many of the era’s acclaimed mathematicians personally. He moved to Israel (then Palestine under the British Mandate) in the early 1930s. In his autobiography Fraenkel describes his earl…
