In the past, more of the leading mathematicians proposed and solved problems than today, and there were problem departments in many journals. P?lya and Szego must have combed all of the large problem literature from about 1850 to 1925 for their material, and their collection of the best in analysis is a heritage of lasting value. The work is unashamedly dated. With few exceptions, all of its material comes from before 1925. We can judge its vintage by a brief look at the author indices (combined). Let's start on the C's: Cantor, Carath?odory, Carleman, Carlson, Catalan, Cauchy, Cayley, Ces?ro, ... Or the L's: Lacour, Lagrange, Laguerre, Laisant, Lambert, Landau, Laplace, Lasker, Laurent, Lebesgue, Legendre, ... Omission is also information: Carlitz, Erd?s, Moser, etc."Bull.Americ.Math.Soc. |
