I am now retired but the website for my Math 251,
Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations,
with all the supplementary is available.

I am
one of the 1,684 Jews
who were saved from the Holocaust by the
Rudolf Kasztner Train.
My daughter Dana Dachman-Soled
finished her PhD in
Computer Science at Columbia University
and is now a Post-doc at
Microsoft Research New England
Her research is in the theoretical foundations of cryptography;
specifically, it is concerned with the
feasibility or infeasibility of securely realizing computational and cryptographic tasks.
Recently, she gave an
invited talk
at the
China Theory Week 2010
conference.
I am an ardent supporter of civil rights, diversity and justice
in the workplace. Some relevant statutes
are discussed here.
Complaints of violations of the Federal statutes can be filed
with the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission.
Charges filed with the
the Pennsylvania Human Relations
Commission may be simultaneously filed
with the EEOC. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) wishes to secure justice and fair treatment for all persons
and in particular to stop the defamation of the Jewish people.
I served as Mathematics Coordinator for Commonwealth Campus faculty
and as Math Division Head in the Commonwealth College.
Information that may be
of interest to Mathematics Faculty at the new colleges is available at
this location.
Research Interests: Complex Analysis, Applied Mathematics, Computer
Algebra
If you're using a Java-enabled browser, then here are some conformal
mappings illustrated via Java.
Here are some differential
equations applets.
Here is an applet that helps
choosing colors when composing webpages or
writing software.
What is Linux?
Some computational tools for Linux users are
Octave
a MatLab alternative, and Maxima,
the current implementation of MIT's Macsyma system for computer based algebra.
available under the GNU Public License and is called
Maxima.
For Windows users Octave,
Scilab,
and the current version of
Maxima with wxMaxima,
a frontend to Maxima, installed. Many
distributions of Linux
include these mathematical tools. Documentation for Maxima is available from
several sources;
some of them are "work in progress" and should be treated as such.
For a complete mock-Unix environment, Windows users can install
Cygwin
and XFree86
