The first woman to have this honor was Emmy Noether, who gave a lecture on algebra in the 1932 Congress. "The list of possible applications is formidable," she says. Donaldson's invariants for four-manifolds are probably the best known, but nearly as important are the calculations of Atiyah-Bott on the topology of the space of stable bundles over curves. This machinery has also been used to classify flat bundles, to study Hodge structures, and to investigate the interaction of magnetic monopoles. "One can always guess this might be of use in string theory, which seems able to absorb every kind of mathematics."

    Extractions: Research Group: I am a member of the geomtry group in the mathematics department. We have three weekly seminars. Gadget is an informal seminar which meets for lunch Tuesday from 12:30 to 2:00. Students are particularly urges to attend this seminar. There is also a joint seminar with the high energy physics group Wednesday at 12:00, and a formal seminar on Thursdays from 3:30-5:00. Students are particularly urged to attend both the Gadget seminar and the first hour of the formal seminar. The formal seminar is split into two parts, and speakers are really expected to give an expository talk during the first hour. Only specialists usually stay for the second half. Here is some up-to-date information about the 2003 IAS/Princeton Women's Program The topic for 2003 is mathematical biology.

    Extractions: Office of the Vice President for Research Karen K. Uhlenbeck studied mathematics for many years, well into graduate school, before she finally acknowledged that a career in this field was right for her. "Even when I had had my Ph.D. for five years," she said, "I was still struggling with whether I should become a mathematicians. I never saw myself very clearly." Today Uhlenbeck , occupant of the Sid W. Richardson Foundation Regents Chair in Mathematics at the University of Texas at Austin, is widely acclaimed as a talented and creative mathematician as well as someone who takes very seriously her obligation to mentor young women mathematicians. Through her research, Uhlenbeck has made very significant contributions to our understanding of the fundamental properties of matter. In her professional life, she has demonstrated a perseverance that enabled her to succeed in science in spite of the discouraging roadblocks she encountered. Karen Uhlenbeck was born in 1942 in Cleveland, Ohio. As a teenaged girl living in rural New Jersey in the 1950s, she exhibited unconventional ways through her active participation in sports and physical activity this during an era when girls were expected to be interested in dating, marriage, and having and raising children.

    Extractions: Office of the Vice President for Research Uhlenbeck Today, Uhlenbeck, holder of the Sid W. Richardson Foundation Regents Chair in Mathematics at the University of Texas at Austin, is widely acclaimed as a talented and creative mathematician as well as someone who takes very seriously her obligation to mentor young women mathematicians. Through her research, Uhlenbeck has made significant contributions to our understanding of the fundamental properties of matter. In her professional life, she has demonstrated a perseverance that enabled her to succeed in science in spite of the discouraging roadblocks she encountered. After receiving her Ph.D. in 1968, she followed her bio-physicist husband to Massachusetts Institute of Technology and then Berkeley, where she worked as a non-tenure track lecturer because the schools interested in her husband were not interested in her. In 1971, Uhlenbeck was offered an assistant professorship at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. This time her husband moved with her. However, the marriage ended a few years later, at which time Uhlenbeck joined the faculty at the University of Illinois-Chicago. In 1995, Uhlenbeck received the Common Wealth Award for Science and Technology from Sigma Xi, the national research honorary society, and, in 1984, was named Alumna of the Year by the U-M.

    Extractions: Karen Uhlenbeck 's father was an engineer and her mother was an artist. She grew up in the country, the eldest of four children. Many mathematicians know from early age that mathematics will be their life but this was not so with Karen Uhlenbeck. As a child she was interested in books and this led her to an interest in science. She writes:- As a child I read a lot, and I read everything. I'd go to the library and then stay up all night reading. I used to read under the desk in school. ... we lived in the country so there wasn't a whole lot to do. I was particularly interested in reading about science. I was about twelve years old when my father began bringing home Fred Hoyle's books on astrophysics. I found them very interesting. I also remember a little paperback book called "One, Two, Three, and, in?

    Extractions: Biographies of Women Mathematicians , Agnes Scott College] A trick question! There is no Nobel prize in mathematics. Why not? That question has created numerous stories, myths, and anecdotes. The most popular is that Nobel's wife had an affair with a mathematician, usually said to be Mittag-Leffler, and in revenge Nobel refused to endow one of his prizes in mathematics. Too bad for this story that Nobel was a life-long bachelor! The other common story is that Mittag-Leffler, the leading Swedish mathematician of Nobel's time, antagonized Nobel and so Nobel gave no prize in mathematics to prevent Mittag-Leffler from becoming a winner. This story is also suspect, however, because Nobel and Mittag-Leffler had almost no contact with each other. Most likely Nobel simply never gave any thought to including mathematics among his list of prize areas.
