Mathematicians
Offer
Help
in
Terror
Fight

It
almost
seems
ridiculous
for
people
who
inhabit
a
world
of
concept
lattices
and
partially ordered
sets
to
think
they
can
affect
a
war
(
War_on_terrorism
)
that
is
being
fought
on
the
streets
of
Baghdad
and
in
the
remote
mountains
of
northern
Pakistan
.
But
the
war
on
terror
is
also
fought
in
cyberspace
,
and
in
the
minds
of
people
from
Lahore
to
Los
Angeles. Mathematicians
are
right
at
home
in
such
abstract
realms
.

Mathematician
Jonathan
Farley
of
the
Massachusetts
Institute
of
Technology
(MIT)
said
he
was
inspired
to
organize
the
meeting
by
the
movie
"
A_Beautiful_Mind
."
The
film
tells
the
story
of
mathematician
John
Forbes Nash,
whose
work
in
game_Theory
found
application
in
Cold
War
military
strategy
, international
trade
and
the
auctioning
of
broadcast
frequencies
by
the
Federal Communications
Commission
