Beschreibung

First Edition. xvii, 365 pp. Original cloth. Very Good, without dust jacket. The University Series in Higher Mathematics. Inscribed: '19 December 1974/To Pedro Ivan/Rivera-Muñiz/with/the compliments and/best wishes of the author /Paul Halmos'. 'Halmos is known for both his outstanding contributions to operator theory, ergodic theory, functional analysis, in particular Hilbert spaces, and for his series of exceptionally well written textbooks. These include Finite dimensional vector spaces (1942), Measure theory (1950), Introduction to Hilbert space and theory of spectral multiplicity (1951), Lectures on ergodic theory (1956), Entropy in ergodic theory (1959), Naive set theory (1960), Algebraic logic (1962), A Hilbert space problem book (1967) and Lectures on Boolean algebras (1974). In 1983 he received the Steele Prize for exposition from the American Mathematical Society. The citation read: The award for a book or substantial survey or research-expository paper is made to Paul R Halmos for his many graduate texts in mathematics, dealing with finite dimensional vector spaces, measure theory, ergodic theory and Hilbert space. Many of these books were the first systematic presentations of their subjects in English. Their felicitous style and content has had a vast influence on the teaching of mathematics in North America. His articles on how to write, talk and publish mathematics have helped all mathematicians to communicate their ideas and results more effectively' (MacTutor History of Mathematics Web site).
