Theory into Profit: Microsoft Invests in Mathematicians
698 NOTICES OF THE AMS VOLUME 45, NUMBER 6 A t a time when many companies have scaled back or eliminated their research efforts, Microsoft Corporation is betting millions on the notion that funding its own research will pay off. And it can afford the gamble: the company’s revenues reached $11.35 billion in 1997. Although Microsoft will not disclose the budget for its think tank, Microsoft Resea...
متن کاملExtra material for “Quantum Theory for Mathematicians”
then so is the curve x(−t), as is easily verified by direct computation. (Note that d/dt(x(−t)) = ẍ(−t), since the two derivatives pull out two minus signs.) In terms of trajectories in phase space, we note that dx(−t)/dt = −ẋ(−t). This means that the momentum of the particle along the time-reversed trajectory is the negative of the momentum along the original trajectory. We may therefore formu...
متن کاملFuzzy Set Theory - a Playground for Mathematicians
When Zadeh first introduced the notion of a fuzzy set, it was laughed away by the ruling caste of 'serious' mathematicians and logicians. Driven by ignorance, the main reason for it was probably strategic: as fuzzy set theory touches upon the very building block of mathematics, it might be better to deny it than to risk being taken out of business. Even the ample practical realizations had no e...
