This "Select a" contains approximately two thirds of the papers my
1932 to 1994. These papers are divided into four fields. father
wrote from The first volume contains the papers on 1) Summability
and Number Theory and 2) Interpolation. The second volume contains
the fields 3) Real and Functional Analysis and 4) Approximation
Theory. Each of these four groups of papers is introduced by a
review of the contents and significance, respectively of the impact
of these papers. The first volume contains, in addition, an
autobiography, a complete list of publications, a list of doctoral
students and four unpublished essays on mathematics in general: a)
A report on the University of Leningrad b) On the work of the
mathematical mind c) Proofs in Mathematics d) About Mathematical
books. The report on the University of Leningrad, written in the
late '40's, is a unique historical document which is still of
current interest for several reasons. It is of interest for
professional reasons since it contains a com plete description of a
mathematics majors' curriculum through his entire course of
studies. From it one can see both the changes and invariants of
course material as well as the students' course load. Then one can
also see the consequences of admittedly extreme political
intervention in uni versity affairs. Today we use the term
"politically correct," but in those times being politically correct
was a matter of life and death."
