Maurice Fréchet - Maurice Halbwachs. Une rencontre improbable
Le héros et l’infini
Dans cet article, nous essayons de déceler dans l'œuvre cinématographique d'Eric Rohmer les traces de l'intérêt du cinéaste pour le hasard calculable, notamment à travers l'évocation répétée dans ses films de sa modélisation mathématique par la théorie des probabilités
Belgium and probability in the nineteenth century
Argument This paper explores how the Belgian mathematician Paul Mansion became interested in probability theory. In comparison to many other countries at the time, probability theory had a much stronger presence in Belgium. In addition, Mansion, who was an avowed Catholic militant, had found probability theory to be a useful means of reflecting on certain problems pertaining to determinism and randomness that were arising in scientific debates at…

L'entrelacs des probabilités et de la statistique
Mathématicien de formation, spécialiste en probabilités, Laurent Mazliak a d'abord fait de la recherche en contrôle stochastique avant de se tourner vers l'histoire des mathématiques. À ce titre, il a travaillé sur l'émergence des probabilités modernes au début du xx e siècle. Il a mené de nombreux travaux sur l'influence de la Première Guerre mondiale sur les communautés mathématiques en France, Italie, Tchécoslovaquie, Bulgarie, Russie et URSS,…

Study of a Trajectory
In this paper, we follow the surprising trajectory of Kiril Popoff (1880-1966), a Bulgarian astronomer and mathematician who specialized in ballistics during the Great War and he was invited in the 1920s to teach a course on the subject at Paris University. To complete the picture, we also present the social and political context of Bulgaria at the beginning of 20th century
What Does the Arrest and Release of Emile Borel and His Colleagues in 1941 Tell Us about the German Occupation of France
Argument The Germans occupying Paris arrested Emile Borel and three other members of the Académie des Sciences in October 1941 and released them about five weeks later. Drawing on German and French archives and other sources, we argue that these events illustrate the complexity of the motivations and tactics of the occupiers and the occupied. While Borel and his colleagues were genuine members of the Resistance, and those who arrested them were f…
