My name is Jörgen Backelin; I am a mathematician by profession; and have some side interests, like evolution theory, language history, and Scandinavian medieval ballads. My home page
My immediate reason for joining the Wikipedia community is that I feel that I might contribute by adding or improving some items in the mathematics section.
- Some nice pages:
- Some other useful links:
- Less useful???
- Ongoing or planned work: (you may add signed suggestions for getting my attention; but I won't promise to do anything about them)
- Things someone probably should do something about; and possibly sometime in the future I might look at:
- Dimension versus Degrees of freedom (physics and chemistry). The latter replaced the former in Euclidean group (elsewhere??), and does not seem to contain any hint of the fact that this is one of the major ways mathematicians define dimension.
- Relation algebra (suggested by Ramsey2006).
- Declension (and some other grammar related articles), where sometimes clearer definitions are needed, and often better layperson exemplification.
- Latin declension et al.: Case order; explaining cases; locative as a separate case or not.
- Genomics, Human genome: Explain some of the most asked questions on e.g. the genetic background for sex distribution in human. Go back into history, find or make template, (re)insert information on the various sequenced genomes; readers will wish to be able to look them up.
