Logical Structure of Physical Probability Assertions
Teaching
I am currently visiting the University of New Hampshire and teaching
there. I will be visiting the University of Notre Dame over the summer.
At Villanova, I am on the research faculty.

The Mathematics
Genealogy Project. This is a database of mathematics thesis
advisors and their students. It is more than a little Germano-centric, for example,
it misinterprets Dirichlet's thesis experience. His adviser was
Legendre, not either Poisson or Fourier, both of whom despised
number theory.
-
There is a wonderful site at the University of St. Andrews for mathematical
history, including biographies of more than a thousand
mathematicians.
an index of recent relevant papers on
Quantum Information Theory maintained by the research group in Italy.
The homepage of the distinguished mathematician, and
former chair of the M.I.T. math dept., David Vogan.
An interesting to-do list of an expert in quantum statistics
A very modest proposal relevant to
Quantum Measurement formalisms of a very general nature.
