Abstract

THE “Chelini-Memorial” volume takes the form of “Collectanea Mathematica,” and is issued under the joint editorship of Professors Cremona and Beltrami (U. Hoepli, Milan). It contains thirty papers by twenty-eight sufficiently representative mathematicians, of whom sixteen are well-known Italian writers; of the remaining twelve, five (MM. Geiser, Kronecker, Reye, Scbläfli, and Wolf) write in German, four (MM. Borchardt, Darboux, Hermite, and Mannheim) write in French. Of the three English contributors, Messrs. Cayley (on a differential equation), Hirst (on the complexes generated by two correlative planes) write in English, and Prof. H. J. S. Smith discourses in Latin “de fractionibus quibusdam continuis.” There is a likeness of Chelini.
