<p dir="auto">An aside. The first national math meeting I attended was in 1966. It was in San Francisco and I was at Stanford. It was where I finally was able to put faces to names. Peter Lax was one of the first ones I saw — his chin was unmistakable.</p>

He talks about all kinds of good stuff: the work of Richtmyer, solutions,<br>
nonlinear approximations, carving semi-groups from unitary Lie groups in the<br>
study of scattering, and surprisingly the Riemann hypothesis in terms of<br>
decaying signals!<br>
