Sumario: | This publication is an outgrowth of a memorial conference for Leon Ehrenpreis held at Temple University, November 15-16, 2010. In the spirit of Ehrenpreis's contribution to mathematics, the papers in this volume, written by prominent mathematicians, represent the wide breadth of subjects that Ehrenpreis traversed in his career, including partial differential equations, combinatorics, number theory, complex analysis, and some applied mathematics. The papers in this volume generally contain all new results in the various fields in which Ehrenpreis worked. The mature mathematician will find new mathematics and the advanced graduate student will find many new ideas to explore. A biographical sketch of Leon Ehrenpreis enhances the memorial tribute and gives the reader a glimpse into the life and career of a great mathematician and gentleman.
