Society (EMS) and the European Consortium for Mathematics in Industry
(ECMI) have decided to establish the Lanczos Prize for Mathematical
Software.

The Prize is to be awarded to a mathematician or scientist, or a group
of mathematicians and scientists, for the development of outstanding
mathematical software with important applications in mathematics,
science, engineering, society or industry.

Eligibility for the Prize is restricted to software whose source is
available to the general public for scrutiny. Commercial software
meeting this criterion is explicitly welcomed.

For full details of evaluation criteria and self-nomination procedure,
please see https://pefarrell.org/lanczos . The deadline for
self-nominations is 31 December 2023.

Subject: X-ray CT Data Set for Machine Learning


We recently published a large 2D expandable, trainable, experimental
Computed Tomography data collection for machine learning (2DeteCT). A
diverse mix of samples with high natural variability in shape and
density mimicking abdominal CT was scanned slice-by-slice (5,000
slices in total) with high angular and spatial resolution and three
different beam characteristics: A high-fidelity, a low-dose and a
beam-hardening- inflicted mode. Our aim was to provide the
computational imaging community with a versatile data collection for
the development and evaluation of both classical and learned CT image
reconstruction algorithms.

The 2DeteCT data collection includes: the raw-projection data
(sinograms) of the three acquisition modes (low dose, high dose,
unfiltered); description of the scanning geometry; pre-processing,
reconstruction and segmentation scripts; iterative reference
reconstructions; four-class reference segmentations.

The corresponding "Data Descriptor" paper is published in "Nature
Scientific Data" under https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-023-
02484-6. The dataset can be found on zenodo at
https://zenodo.org/record/8014758 and all other links contained in the
description of the data upload. The corresponding collection of Python
scripts for loading, pre-processing, reconstructing and segmenting the
X-ray CT projection data of the 2DeteCT data collection can be found
at https://github.com/mbkiss/2DeteCTcodes .

If you have any comments about the dataset, your feedback is highly
appreciated!

Subject: New Book, Calculus for the Natural Sciences


Calculus for the Natural Sciences by Michel Helfgott

In this textbook on calculus of one variable, applications to the
natural sciences play a central role. Examples from biology,
chemistry, and physics are discussed in detail without compromising
the mathematical aspects essential to learning differential and
integral calculus.

Calculus for the Natural Sciences distinguishes itself from other
textbooks on the topic by: "balancing theory, mathematical techniques,
and applications to motivate students and bridge the gap between
mathematics and the natural sciences and engineering; "employing real
data to convey the main ideas underlying the scientific method; and
"using SageMath and R to perform calculations and write short
programs, thus giving the teacher more time to explain important
concepts.

This textbook is intended for first-year students in mathematics,
engineering, and the natural sciences and is appropriate for a two-
semester course on calculus I and II (freshman calculus of one
variable). It can also be used for self-study by engineers and natural
scientists.

Subject: New Book, Classical Analysis of Real-Valued Functions


Classical Analysis of Real-Valued Functions by V.S. Serov

Divided into two self-contained parts, this textbook is an
introduction to modern real analysis. More than 350 exercises and 100
examples are integrated into the text to help clarify the theoretical
considerations and the practical applications to differential
geometry, Fourier series, differential equations, and other subjects.

The first part of Classical Analysis of Real-Valued Functions covers
the theorems of existence of supremum and infimum of bounded sets on
the real line and the Lagrange formula for differentiable
functions. Applications of these results are crucial for classical
mathematical analysis, and many are threaded through the text. In the
second part of the book, the implicit function theorem plays a central
role, while the Gauss-Ostrogradskii formula, surface integration,
Heine-Borel lemma, the Ascoli-Arzela theorem, and the one-dimensional
indefinite Lebesgue integral are also covered.

This book is intended for first and second year students majoring in
mathematics although students of engineering disciplines will also
gain important and helpful insights. It is appropriate for courses in
mathematical analysis, functional analysis, real analysis, and
calculus and can be used for self-study as well.

Subject: New Book, The Prosecution of Chandler Davis


The Prosecution of Professor Chandler Davis: McCarthyism, Communism,
and the Myth of Academic Freedom by Steve Batterson

NA Digest readers know Chandler Davis through his scholarship in

linear algebra and editorial work for the Mathematical
Intelligencer. Some are familiar with Chandler's 1954 hearing before a
subcommittee of the House Un-American Activities Committee where he
asserted the First Amendment to justify his refusal to answer
questions about his Communist associations. In the midst of the
McCarthyism hysteria he was then fired by the University of Michigan,
blacklisted by American universities, convicted of contempt of
Congress, and sentenced to six months in federal prison. This book
examines Chandler's ordeal. The research relies on archival records
from the Bentley Historical Library at the University of Michigan, the
House Un-American Activities Committee, the FBI (via Freedom of
Information Act request) and former Supreme Court justices at the
Library of Congress and other repositories. Special features of the
book are deep dives into the University of Michigan's enabling of
McCarthyism and the role of Justice Felix Frankfurter in court cases
that eventually determined Chandler's fate on a 5-4 decision in a
related case.

The book is available in paper, cloth, and ebook from Amazon and other
booksellers. More information is available from the publisher Monthly
Review Press at https://monthlyreview.org/ChandlerDavis

We anticipate a funded PhD position to become available for
September 2024 entry on the use of randomised numerical linear
algebra for PDEs and inverse problems. Interested applicants
should email Nick Polydorides at n.polydorides@ed.ac.uk before
December 2023. Preference should be given to those with a strong
masters degree in a computational subject.

Numerical approximation methods like the finite element method
(FEM) and the finite difference time domain (FDTD) schemes are
at the forefront of engineering design and scientific computing.
Ingrained in physical laws and engineering principles, these
schemes have played a pivotal role in providing quantitative
insights of complex phenomena including electrodynamics, heat
transfer, and photonics, but due to their computational complexity
their use was restricted exclusively to offline simulation. To
serve the needs of modern engineering, like AI, IoT and digital
twins, these schemes must be redesigned to become more agile and
suitable for online and edge (in-situ) computing. This
transformation requires (i) a capability to perform model
prediction/calibration at arbitrary scale (up to a few billion
parameters), (ii) a capability to operate with low storage/energy
resources (embedded within battery operated processing units),
(iii) extending their prediction skill by augmenting with
non-physics (data driven) model extensions, and (iv) execution in
almost real-time to inform decision making processes. To provide
robust solutions to these challenges one must exploit the inherent
structures of the FEM/FDTD schemes in order to dramatically reduce
their computational complexity and allow speed ups of 1000x or
more without a significant compromise (< 1%) in their accuracy or
increase in prediction uncertainty. An approach to enable such a
transformational research is to utilize the framework of
randomised numerical linear algebra (aka randomized sketching)
whilst leveraging algorithms from deep learning research (e.g.
learned continuous operators). Randomised algebra provides a
prudent way to "replace" expensive matrix-vector operations of
extremely large dimension with simple-to-implement random
projections or sample-based estimators that utilize only a tiny
fraction of the available data/computational objects. The
project will focus on the numerical solution of the wave equation
that underpins a multitude of physical phenomena and consider its
application in the context of modelling data from a sensor
network. This research will lead to significant advances in the
areas of edge computing, and machine learning for
science/engineering.
