Eighteenth century Swiss mathematician Leonard Euler was prolific in every sense. He fathered 13 children and probably just as many branches of mathematics. One of his many legacies is the name "Latin square" to describe a matrix in which each row and column forms a permutation of the numbers 1,2,3,...,n. He was the original Sudoku addict! Like Euler, Ian Wanless discovered that playing with Latin squares is fun a long time before it became fashionable. In this colloquium he will explain some of his recent extensions of Euler's fundamental discoveries.

I really don't know how to go about this, but my initial thoughts are: - This should be related to continuous functions and connectedness.

The articles cover a variety of topics that, for want of a better name, shall be referred to as humanistic. An important criterion, thereby limiting the choice, is that the articles should be accessible to the literate reader who may or may not have technical knowledge of mathematics. The articles span roughly a century in time and a wide range in subject. They are by mathematicians acknowledged by their peers as outstanding creators whose work has added richly to the discipline. Each article is preceded by a brief biographical sketch of the author and a brief indication of the content. Educational > Mathematics > Textbooks/Books narky Fri, 11 May 2007 00:56:08 GMT
