Having the right intuition and working hard is common to both the arts and the sciences. The high abstraction levels of mathematics, especially, seem to require an extra amount of intuitive guidance.
拥有正确的直觉和努力工作对艺术和科学来说都是共同的。特别是数学的高度抽象，似乎需要额外的直觉指导。

I promised him I would come in the spring. By the time I was done with my cancer treatment and able to travel again, I was four months too late. I ended up spending a week in his MPI office, looking through the writings he left behind: one week for an entire lifetime. That’s when I started writing this piece. On the small board outside the door of his office, along with his photograph and the cover pages of his recent preprints, he had posted a copy of Quasimodo’s poem Ed è subito sera. Indeed, even after a long life full of so many remarkable achievements, that final nightfall still comes very suddenly and unexpectedly. It still comes much too soon. There was still so much joy of life, of thought, so much energy and creativity left in him, up until the very end of his life.

This article presents some results obtained recently in the history of mathematics using the tools of textometry. The results pertain to two case-studies, devoted to Charles Hermite’s style and to the theory of algebraic surfaces at the end of the 19th century, respectively.

Challenges to the quality of basic mathematics education, especially in under-resourced countries, are well documented. It is in response to these challenges that the International Commission of Mathematical Instruction (ICMI) launched its programme of Capacity and Networking Project (CANP). This programme aims to create and sustain effective regional networks in low-income and lower-middle-income countries and develop the educational capacity of those responsible for mathematics teachers. This paper reports on the deliberations among the representatives of CANP, ICMI and the International Mathematical Union in working towards the common goal of making high quality mathematics education available to all.

We have already discussed bibliometric measures for the mathematics corpus in this column before. This included the unusual longevity of mathematics citations, effects of delayed publication due to often long and complex refereeing processes, and the specifics of different mathematical areas. It has become clear that purely numerical criteria are often unsuitable to measure mathematical quality or the scientific impact of publications. At the same time, the bibliometric results often depend on mathematical subfields, thus reflecting the structure and different behaviour of mathematical communities. In this column we concentrate on an author-oriented viewpoint. We will derive some quantities which illustrate how the landscape of mathematical publications has changed over the past decades.
