This quantity deals a different selection of awesome contributions from well known ladies mathematicians who met in Cambridge for a convention less than the auspices of eu ladies in arithmetic (EWM). those contributions function first-class surveys in their topic components, together with symplectic topology, combinatorics and quantity idea. the amount furthermore sheds mild on popular ladies mathematicians who labored in Cambridge within the past due nineteenth and early twentieth centuries by way of offering an insightful historic creation at first of the quantity. the amount concludes with brief contributions from girls mathematicians from throughout Europe operating in quite a few parts of arithmetic starting from crew thought to magnetic fields.

G. maps whose domain is the whole of the 2-sphere, then there is at most a finite dimensional family of such curves. Moreover, Gromov discovered that under many circumstances the most important features of the behavior of these curves does not depend on the precise almost complex structure we are looking at. nA well known result in elementary complex analysis is that every bounded holomorphic function that is defined on the whole of the complex plane C is constant. ) Since the Riemann sphere S 2 = C ∪ {∞} contains C, the same is true for S 2 .
