"Turkish
Contributions to Mathematical Sciences"
By
Abstract: Although
in a journey backwards in time the questions of ethnicity and scientific
taxonomy tend to become inextricably complicate d and possibly meaningless, it
can be argued that there is at least a millennium
of Turkish interaction with mathematical sciences, intermittent and feeble as
it is. In the opinion of the speaker and on a more optimistic note, at the end
of the relatively stable last ninety year interval of our history we may look
forward to individual research of greater significa nce as well as to the establishment of mathematical schools
of lasting impact.
