	Non-standard analysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Non-standard analysis was introduced in the early 1960s by the mathematician Abraham Robinson.
		As developed by him in his papers, it is based on studying models (in particular saturated models) of a theory.
		One of these results is the theorem proven by Abraham Robinson and Allen Bernstein that every polynomially compact linear operator on a Hilbert space has an invariant subspace.

		The assertion that Peter Robinson is a lucky man is something that he likely wouldn't argue.
		Robinson initially believed the answer was merely luck but as he observed Reagan he began to realize that the real answer was strength of character and a core set of principles that governed how Reagan lived his life.
		Realizing that despite his education and important job he, as he readily admits, was little more than a self-absorbed callow youth, Robinson began to take note of Reagan's qualities and begin to incorporate them into his own life.

		That engagement, by steps which Robinson faithfully describes, led to a fifteen - year career within the American labor movement, with steadily deepening involvement with various forms of Marxism.
		Robinson writes: "In the course of those years, Muste worked devotedly for the causes of racial equality, economic justice, free speech, and political liberty.

		Robinson then showed how the fundamental concepts of the calculus (continuity, differentiability, convergence of series) could be defined intuitively in terms of the hyperreals, rather than having to resort to the logically less perspicuous epsilon-delta definitions of Weierstrass.

		Nonstandard mathematics originated with Abraham Robinson, and the body of ideas that have developed from this theory of nonstandard analysis now vastly extends Robinson's work with infinitesimals.
