Academic genealogy

An academic genealogy (or scientific genealogy) organizes a family tree of scientists and scholars according to mentoring relationships, often in the form of dissertation supervision relationships, and not according to genetic relationships as in conventional genealogy.

American Mathematical Society

The American Mathematical Society (AMS) is an association of professional mathematicians dedicated to the interests of mathematical research and scholarship, and serves the national and international community through its publications, meetings, advocacy and other programs.

Asplund space

In mathematics — specifically, in functional analysis — an Asplund space or strong differentiability space is a type of well-behaved Banach space.

See Isaac Namioka and Asplund space

Bochner integral

In mathematics, the Bochner integral, named for Salomon Bochner, extends the definition of Lebesgue integral to functions that take values in a Banach space, as the limit of integrals of simple functions.

See Isaac Namioka and Bochner integral

Cartesian product

In mathematics, specifically set theory, the Cartesian product of two sets and, denoted, is the set of all ordered pairs where is in and is in.

See Isaac Namioka and Cartesian product

Compact space

In mathematics, specifically general topology, compactness is a property that seeks to generalize the notion of a closed and bounded subset of Euclidean space.

See Isaac Namioka and Compact space

Cornell University

Cornell University is a private Ivy League land-grant research university based in Ithaca, New York.

Dense set

In topology and related areas of mathematics, a subset A of a topological space X is said to be dense in X if every point of X either belongs to A or else is arbitrarily "close" to a member of A — for instance, the rational numbers are a dense subset of the real numbers because every real number either is a rational number or has a rational number arbitrarily close to it (see Diophantine approximation).

See Isaac Namioka and Dense set

Doctoral advisor

A doctoral advisor (also dissertation director, dissertation advisor; or doctoral supervisor) is a member of a university faculty whose role is to guide graduate students who are candidates for a doctorate, helping them select coursework, as well as shaping, refining and directing the students' choice of sub-discipline in which they will be examined or on which they will write a dissertation.

Emeritus

Emeritus (female version: emerita) is an honorary title granted to someone who retires from a position of distinction, most commonly an academic faculty position, but is allowed to continue using the previous title, as in "professor emeritus".

See Isaac Namioka and Emeritus

Fellow

A fellow is a concept whose exact meaning depends on context.

Festschrift

In academia, a Festschrift (plural, Festschriften) is a book honoring a respected person, especially an academic, and presented during their lifetime.

See Isaac Namioka and Festschrift

Functional analysis

Functional analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis, the core of which is formed by the study of vector spaces endowed with some kind of limit-related structure (for example, inner product, norm, or topology) and the linear functions defined on these spaces and suitably respecting these structures.

General topology

In mathematics, general topology (or point set topology) is the branch of topology that deals with the basic set-theoretic definitions and constructions used in topology.

See Isaac Namioka and General topology

Gδ set

In the mathematical field of topology, a Gδ set is a subset of a topological space that is a countable intersection of open sets.

Ryll-Nardzewski fixed-point theorem

In functional analysis, a branch of mathematics, the Ryll-Nardzewski fixed-point theorem states that if E is a normed vector space and K is a nonempty convex subset of E that is compact under the weak topology, then every group (or equivalently: every semigroup) of affine isometries of K has at least one fixed point.
