In April of 1996 an array of mathematicians converged on Cambridge,
Massachusetts, for the Rotafest and Umbral Calculus Workshop, two
con ferences celebrating Gian-Carlo Rota's 64th birthday. It seemed
appropriate when feting one of the world's great combinatorialists
to have the anniversary be a power of 2 rather than the more
mundane 65. The over seventy-five par ticipants included Rota's
doctoral students, coauthors, and other colleagues from more than a
dozen countries. As a further testament to the breadth and depth of
his influence, the lectures ranged over a wide variety of topics
from invariant theory to algebraic topology. This volume is a
collection of articles written in Rota's honor. Some of them were
presented at the Rotafest and Umbral Workshop while others were
written especially for this Festschrift. We will say a little about
each paper and point out how they are connected with the
mathematical contributions of Rota himself."
