John R. Steel
John Robert Steel (born October 30, 1948) is an American set theory, set theorist at University of California, Berkeley (formerly at University of California, Los Angeles, UCLA). He has made many contributions to the theory of inner models and determinacy. With Donald A. Martin, he proved projective determinacy, assuming the existence of sufficient large cardinals. He earned his Doctor of Philosophy, Ph.D. in Logic & the Methodology of Science at Berkeley in 1977 under the joint supervision of John West Addison Jr. and Steve Simpson (mathematician), Stephen G. Simpson. Awards In 1988, the Association for Symbolic Logic awarded him, Donald A. Martin and W. Hugh Woodin the Karp Prize for their work on the consistency of determinacy relative to large cardinals. In 2015, the European Set Theory Society awarded him and Ronald Jensen the Hausdorff Medal for their paper "K without the measurable". In 2012, Steel held the Gödel Lecture titled ''The hereditarily ordinal definable set ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Hausdorff Medal
The Hausdorff medal is a mathematical prize awarded every two years by the European Set Theory Society. The award recognises the work considered to have had the most impact within set theory among all articles published in the previous five years. The award is named after the German mathematician Felix Hausdorff (1868–1942). Winners *2013: Hugh Woodin for his articles "Suitable extender models I" ('' J. Math. Log.'' 10 (2010), no. 1–2, pp. 101–339) and "Suitable extender models II: beyond ''ω''-huge" (''J. Math. Log.'' 11 (2011), no. 2, pp. 115–436). *2015: Ronald Jensen and John R.

University Of California, Los Angeles Faculty
A university () is an institution of higher (or tertiary) education and research which awards academic degrees in several academic disciplines. Universities typically offer both undergraduate and postgraduate programs. In the United States, the designation is reserved for colleges that have a graduate school. The word ''university'' is derived from the Latin ''universitas magistrorum et scholarium'', which roughly means "community of teachers and scholars". The first universities were created in Europe by Catholic Church monks. The University of Bologna (''Università di Bologna''), founded in 1088, is the first university in the sense of: *Being a high degree-awarding institute. *Having independence from the ecclesiastic schools, although conducted by both clergy and non-clergy. *Using the word ''universitas'' (which was coined at its foundation). *Issuing secular and non-secular degrees: grammar, rhetoric, logic, theology, canon law, notarial law.Hunt Janin: "The university ...

21st-century American Mathematicians
The 1st century was the century spanning AD 1 ( I) through AD 100 ( C) according to the Julian calendar. It is often written as the or to distinguish it from the 1st century BC (or BCE) which preceded it. The 1st century is considered part of the Classical era, epoch, or historical period. The 1st century also saw the appearance of Christianity. During this period, Europe, North Africa and the Near East fell under increasing domination by the Roman Empire, which continued expanding, most notably conquering Britain under the emperor Claudius ( AD 43). The reforms introduced by Augustus during his long reign stabilized the empire after the turmoil of the previous century's civil wars. Later in the century the Julio-Claudian dynasty, which had been founded by Augustus, came to an end with the suicide of Nero in AD 68. There followed the famous Year of Four Emperors, a brief period of civil war and instability, which was finally brought to an end by Vespasian, ninth Roman empero ...
