[No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29) Clebsch was a very versatile mathematician, and his influence was felt and still is felt in different areas of our science. As a final task, Clebsch proposed the construction of a general theory of birational transformations of which the theory of invariants (under projective transformations) should be only the introduction; it is evident that he envisioned the general contours of a``birational algebraic geometry". This particular role of Clebsch explains the large influence, which he exercised on his contemporaries (this is for instance visible in the obituary, which was published by his pupils in the 7th volume of the Mathematischen Annalen, or in the pages dedicated to Clebsch in the book of Klein). www.math.carleton.ca:16080 /~mortimer/Clebsch.tex.txt   (2546 words)

Smoky Mountain News | Outdoors   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29) Ed Clebsch, professor emeritus of botany at the University of Tennessee, serves on the awards committee. Clebsch thought he was one of the privileged few when awards director Mary Painter asked him to keep an eye on horticulturist Dick Bir to ensure that he would be nearby when the award was announced. Clebsch also serves on the steering committee for the Cullowhee Conference and is a regular attendee, participating in 17 out of the 19 conferences. www.smokymountainnews.com /issues/07_02/07_31_02/out_native_plants.html   (574 words)

Clebsch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29) Hesse had advised Clebsch to investigate the algebraic geometry of Cayley, Sylvester and Salmon and he was particularly attracted to the contributions that Aronhold had made to their theories. Clebsch described the plane representations of various rational surfaces, especially that of the general cubic surface. Clebsch must also be credited with the first birational invariant of an algebraic surface, the geometric genus that he introduced as the maximal number of double integrals of the first kind existing on it. www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk /~history/Mathematicians/Clebsch.html   (567 words)

TDEC: The TN Conservationist Magazine For Ed Clebsch, spending his first summer in a paid position as a botanical field worker, it was a discovery of enduring excitement. For the Clebsch clan of Tennessee, small in number, add one more star in their hefty crown of accomplishments in conservation, education, research, and exploration regarding the natural treasures of Tennessee and the world beyond. Alfred Clebsch, Sr." Alfred immediately began contributing reports and articles to the journal, and was soon serving as Secretary-Treasurer, a position he held for almost 10 years. www.state.tn.us /environment/tn_consv/archive/cleb.htm   (1877 words)

Theology Today - Vol 31, No. 4 - January 1975 - BOOK REVIEW - Dissent in American Religion & American Religious ... Clebsch, in writing here on the history of the philosophy of religion in America, concentrates principally on three figures-Jonathan Edwards, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and William James. Clebsch has concentrated on Edwards' The Nature of True Virtue, in which Edwards borrowed heavily from Lord Shaftesbury and Francis Hutcheson the suggestive parallelism between virtue ("benevolence") and aesthetic harmony. By eliminating this note of particularism that Edwards made central, Clebsch is able to restore the universalized aestheticism of Shaftesbury and Hutcheson and to build on it. theologytoday.ptsem.edu /jan1975/v31-4-bookreview10.htm   (924 words)

Homeowners upset by PUC plans Clebsch and her neighbors knew they had an an absentee landlord in their midst when they bought their homes. Clebsch sees a "wonderful opportunity" to create public gardens with some of the Hetch Hetchy easements that are scattered throughout the neighborhood. Clebsch and other neighbors express most concern about the idea of having all fences on the right-of-way torn down, leaving a 60-foot-wide unenclosed "corridor" cutting through back and front yards. www.paloaltoonline.com /weekly/morgue/news/2000_Oct_11.HETCHY.html   (1031 words)

Sage advice (September 19, 2003) Clebsch's garden is a living love poem written in salvias. While many of the sages in Clebsch's garden can't be found in nurseries, Salvia guaranitica, Anise-scented sage, is readily available and easily grown, she said. Each sage described in her book is paired with plants Clebsch has tested in her garden to enhance the salvia's appearance. www.mv-voice.com /morgue/2003/2003_09_19.salvis.html   (1105 words)

German Mathematical Society In 1867 Clebsch lectured on binary forms to the meeting of the Society of German Scientists and Physicians held in Frankfurt-am-Main. Clebsch continued to press the idea of a mathematics society which had support but its founding was continually delayed. When Clebsch died in 1872 his role as the leading advocate of a German mathematical society was taken up by Klein, who was Clebsch's student. www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk /~history/Societies/German.html   (865 words)

Last check: 2007-09-29) Clebsch maintains a large collection of salvias in her garden in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California, a location well suited to these plants, many of which are native to dry habitats around the world. For each species, Clebsch provides a description of the plant and its flowers, native setting, directions for cultivation and propagation, placement in the garden, and desirable companion plants.

Coadjoint Orbits, Vortices, and Clebsch Variables for Incompressible Fluids   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29) This paper is a study of incompressible fluids, especially their Clebsch variables and vortices, using symplectic geometry and the Lie-Poisson structure on the dual of Lie algebra. The dual of the Lie algebra is seen to be the space of vorticities, and Kelvin's circulation theorem is interpreted as preservation of coadjoint orbits. Symplectic structures on the coadjoint orbits of a vortex patch and filament are computed and shown to be closely related to those commonly used for the KdV and the Schrödinger equations respectively. www.cds.caltech.edu /~marsden/bib/1983/05-MaWe1983   (200 words)

Science Fiction to Science Fact Clebsch Gordon paced on the deck of the N.R.G. Spectrum, a Standard Model spaceship with a very fine structure. They ignored her for a few minutes as they tried to find a way out, but the walls were solid Symma wood, and the ceiling was made out of sturdy h-bars. Clebsch and Hermy made curious phases at each other, and backed away to the other side of the well. www.sff.net /people/kwharton/clebsch.htm   (960 words)

Paul Bosch's Worship Workbench - Liturgy and the Death of Marilyn Monroe (Lutheran liturgy, worship resources) I'm remembering as I write these words a magnificent series of addresses by Anglican theologian William Clebsch, at a conference of Lutheran and Anglican students and campus pastors in Columbia, Missouri, in the summer of 1962. Her death, Clebsch suggested, was no suicide, but represented instead the murder of Norma Jean Baker by Marilyn Monroe. To deny, with the "word-reductionists" (see my Essay 3), that Christian faith is a "religion" is simply docetism, in my view: a sectarian spiritualising of the Incarnation; a mis-appropriation of the First Article; a unitarianism of the Second Person. www.worship.ca /docs/ww_15.html   (744 words)

Theology Today - Vol 36, No. 4 - January 1980 - BOOK NOTES - Christianity in European History   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29) Clebsch recognizes, that for the European, Christian culture and religion have never existed totally side by side, but that they have interpenetrated. The result was that each age, or each humanity, expressed itself in its own characteristic form and pattern of Christianity. Each exemplar had his view of Christ, and it is in describing these views that Clebsch manifests his skill. theologytoday.ptsem.edu /jan1980/v36-4-booknotes12.htm   (224 words)

Nat' Academies Press, Twenty-Third Symposium on Naval Hydrodynamics (2001)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29) The Clebsch based inverse design method provides a theoretical background for the development of a toolbox for practical propulsor inverse design. In the case of propulsor design, the ability to model free stream shear and its interactions with the blading is important, the effect of multiple blade rows on each other and their interactions with nearby boundaries such as duct and body are equally important. The use of Clebsch potentials in modeling bound vorticity of blades and the free stream vorticity proves to be an effective way of approaching the propulsor design problem. www.nap.edu /openbook.php?record_id=10189&page=284   (4900 words)
