Podcast appearances and mentions of John F Nash

Listen to Dr. Reinhard Selten, Director of the Laboratory for Experimental Economics and Dr. John F. Nash, Jr., Professor of Mathematics at Princeton University, discuss Game Theory Applications. Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Selten, and Nobel Memorial Prize winner, Dr. Nash, both received their awards in 1994. This discussion was recorded in 2000.

von Jürgen Vagt 02.08.20 Prof. Dr. Christian Rieck (Spieltheorie bei Innovation) Heute habe ich einen Schüler des einzigen deutschen Nobelpreisträgers Rainhard Selten in den Wirtschaftswissenschaften bei den Zukunftsmachern begrüßt und wir sprachen über die Spieltheorie. Vielleicht kennen Sie den Film: A beautiful Mind über den Mathematiker und Wirtschaftswissenschaftler über John F. Nash und dieser Ökonom hat eben für seine Forschungen über die Spieltheorie den Nobelpreis bekommen. Die Spieltheorie beschreibt, dass (rationale) strategische Verhalten von Individuen. Bei Innovationen treten diese Situationen immer wieder und einige Unternehmen lassen sich auch mit der Spieltheorie beraten, ob es Kodak oder der Print in seiner Gesamtheit immer wieder traten und treten strategische Situationen auf, und hier gilt es optimale Lösungen zu finden. Werbung: New Design University (NDU) E-Taxi übers Wasser (SeaBubbles) Der Verkehr soll automatisiert werden, neben dem Straßenverkehr und der Luftfahrt sollen nun auch Wassertaxis automatisiert werden. In Genf und Paris starten die ersten Modellversuche, bei denen Wassertaxis mit elektrischem Antrieb eingesetzt werden sollen. Diese Taxis werden immer automatisierter und SEA-Bubbles sucht nun einen großen Bootsbauer, um dieses Konzept für den Massenmarkt zu bauen. Die Wassertaxis können auch automatisch Müll sammeln und das Einsatzgebiet ist vergleichsweise groß, denn viele großen Städte liegen an Flüssen oder Seen. Innovation und Diversität Diversität ist das Schlagwort des Jahrzehnts und das Netz ist voll von positiven Beiträgen. Diversität macht Unternehmen innovativer und sorgt für größere Gewinne, aber nur wenn es viel Diversität gibt. Hier wird zwar nicht beantwortet, ob A B erklärt oder B A oder weniger statistisch formuliert zuerst das Huhn oder das Ei da war. Mir fehlen kritische Quellen, aber eben das reportiere ich und frage mich, ob man Diversität auch in der Umsetzung hilfreich ist. Mikrochip-Implantate in Unternehmen Mikrochips werden unter die Haut gesetzt und dann wird das Leben einfacher, man kann dann einfacher bezahlen und seine Wohnungstür öffnen. Einige Vordenker denken so ein Konzept weiter, also wird der Mensch an die virtuelle Welt angeschlossen und dann ist es nur noch ein kleiner Schritt zu Cyborg. Um ein bisschen Luft aus dem Reifen zu lassen, muss ich sagen, dass gegenwärtig nur 3500 der 9 Millionen Schweden sich so einen Chip unter die Haut setzen lassen. Mikrochips unter der Haut könnten aber in der Tat ein Zukunftstrend der 2020er Jahre werden. Zukunft der Geheimdienste Auch Geheimdienste müssen in die Zukunft, aber zuerst klären wir mal, was Geheimdienste genau sind und was diese Geheimdienste genau dürfen. Wie gut sind die Geheimdienste eigentlich und wie nach welchen Kriterien kann man die Leistung von Geheimdiensten beurteilen. Natürlich ist die Digitalisierung ein Thema für die Dienste und die Amerikaner haben hier einen massiven Vorteil. Kommt jetzt eine Massenüberwachung wie der Schleyerfandung in den 1970er Jahren? Wahrscheinlich nicht!

Russell Crowe auditions for George Lucas in the hope of playing Jar Jar Binks. We watch 'Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace, we continue our true crime section & congratulate Howard Hughes on his test flight of 'The Spruce Goose' via the time phone. SHOW NOTES: Russell Ira Crowe (born 7 April 1964) is an actor & film producer. He came to international attention for his role as the Roman General Maximus Decimus Meridius in the historical film Gladiator (2000), directed by Ridley Scott, for which Crowe won an Academy Award, a Broadcast Film Critics Association Award & an Empire Award for best actor, along with ten other nominations in the same category. Crowe's other award-winning performances include portrayals of tobacco firm whistle-blower Jeffrey Wigand in the drama film The Insider (1999), and John F. Nash in the biopic A Beautiful Mind (2001). Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace is a 1999 American epic space-opera film written and directed by George Lucas, produced by Lucasfilm, and distributed by 20th Century Fox. Howard Robard Hughes Jr. (December 24, 1905 – April 5, 1976) was an American business magnate, investor, record-setting pilot, engineer, film director, and philanthropist, known during his lifetime as one of the most financially successful individuals in the world.

The institutional history of mathematics in the United States comprises several entangled traditions—military, civil, academic, industrial—each of which merits its own treatment. David Lindsay Roberts, adjunct professor of mathematics at Prince George's Community College, takes a very different approach. His unique book, Republic of Numbers: Unexpected Stories of Mathematical Americans through History(Johns Hopkins University Press, 2019), anchors 20 biographical chapters to a decadal series of events, whose mathematical significance could not often have been anticipated. These short biographies range from the inauguration of military and civil engineering (Sylvanus Thayer) and the textbook industry (Catharine Beecher and Joseph Ray) to the influence of geopolitics during and after the Cold War (Joaquin Basilio Diaz, John F. Nash Jr.), and over the course of the book the subjects witness the professionalization of the research community (Charles H. Davis), radical expansions of educational access (Kelly Miller, Edgar L. Edwards Jr.), and contentious, transgenerational debates over curriculum design (Izaak Wirzsup, Frank B. Allen), among many other themes. Through their professional and institutional connections, the subjects of the chapters form a connected component, providing intriguing narrative hooks across time, geography, and status while evidencing the tightly bound community of American mathematics scholarship. The book can be read as professional history or as a collection of biographical essays, and i expect it to become a charming entry point for mathematical, historical, or not-yet-hooked readers into the forces that have shaped the discipline. Suggested companion work: David E. Zitarelli, A History of Mathematics in the United States and Canada: Volume 1: 1492–1900. Cory Brunson (he/him) is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for Quantitative Medicine at UConn Health. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this series, we focus on pop culture portrayals of mental health issues and professional helping, believing that media both reflect and influence popular perception. In this episode, we discuss the portrayal of genius, creativity, social awkwardness, paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis, and medication side-effects for Nobel Prize winning mathematician and Game Theory contributor John F. Nash, as depicted in the biographical drama A Beautiful Mind, based on the biography of the same name by Sylvia Nasar. We also discuss Nash's relationship with his wife and primary caretaker, Alicia, and how she was affected by her husband's mental health issues and taking/non-taking of medication.

The life and times of mathematician John F. Nash Jr. have garnered a great deal of attention since the release of the popular movie, A Beautiful Mind, chronicled events in his life. This show featured an interview with Sylvia Nassar, the author of Nash's biography, who discussed Nash's struggles with math, schizophrenia, and the Nobel Prize.
