Abstract
THIS goodly-sized volume bears testimony to the activity of its members, and contains twenty-nine papers, published in extenso. We may specially refer to one or two. The “Pure” side of the subject of mathematics, as usual, is the favoured one, and furnishes memoirs by Prof. Cayley on the condition for the existence of a surface cutting at right angles a given set of lines, on a general differential equation, geometrical illustration of a theorem relating to an irrational function of an imaginary variable, on the circular relation of Möbius and on the linear transformation of the integral ∫du/√U.—
