The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Letter from Jacob Lionel Bakst Cooper, on a paper 'The representation of analytic functions by infinite series' by W F Newns, to D C Martin, assistant secretary of the Royal Society

Reference number: RR/77/22

Date: 12 May 1952

Description

Paper reference code: A20

Cooper has read the part of this paper that relates to Linear Space Theory, and believes it needs heavy cutting. The section on Interpolatory Function Theory is unfamiliar to him, so he has sent for some recent papers on the subject but they have not yet arrived. Asks Martin if we would like a report now, or whether he can wait until he has finished the entire paper.

[Published in Philosophical Transactions A, 1953].
