Stanley J. Korsmeyer

The scientific community has been saddened and diminished by the loss of Stanley J. Korsmeyer, M.D., who died of lung cancer last month at the age of 54. Over the last 25 years, Korsmeyer had been an international leader in the fields of cancer biology and programmed cell death (apoptosis). Through his studies of apoptosis, Korsmeyer helped revolutionize our concepts of carcinogenesis. Korsmeye...

Stanley Cohen (1922- )

Stanley Cohen [5] was born on 17 November 1922 in Brooklyn, New York. His father was a tailor and his mother a housewife who immigrated to the United States from Russia in the early 1900s. Cohen spent his early education in the New York City public school system, and attended the city college, Brooklyn College [9], for his undergraduate studies. Brooklyn College [9] had no tuition, which allowe...

Stanley Decompositions and Polarization

We define nice partitions of the multicomplex associated with a Stanley ideal. As the main result we show that if the monomial ideal I is a CM Stanley ideal, then I is a Stanley ideal as well, where I is the polarization of I .

Affine Stanley Symmetric Functions

We define a new family F̃w(X) of generating functions for w ∈ S̃n which are affine analogues of Stanley symmetric functions. We establish basic properties of these functions such as their symmetry and conjecture certain positivity properties. As an application, we relate these functions to the k-Schur functions of Lapointe, Lascoux and Morse as well as the cylindric Schur functions of Postnikov. ...
