Description: The 11 papers are devoted to analysis, probability, and applications. The topics include the limit distribution of a homogeneous polynomial on the unit sphere of large dimensions, a survey of measures on abelian groups, the extension of analytic solutions of linear partial differential equations, asymptotics of the spectrum for two model problems in the theory of liquid vibrations, and countable analogues of pseudo-compact and Stone-Cech extensions. One offering is a biographical sketch of Julian Vasil'evich Sochotskii (1842-1927). No index. Member prices are $92 for institutions and $69 for individuals.
