    D. Rees dolgozatában a következő fontos struktúratételt bizonyította be: egy S (nullelemes) félcsoport akkor és csak akkor teljesen O-egyszerű, ha egy nullelemmel kiegészített csoport fölötti, reguláris Rees-féle mátrixfélcsoporttal izomorf. Ugyanott szükséges és elégséges feltételt adott arra vonatkozóan, hogy két, nullelemmel kiegészített csoport fölötti, reguláris Rees-féle mátrixfélcsoport izomorf legyen. (Az említett fogalmakat és eredményeket illetően lásd például A. H. Clifford—G. В. Preston könyvét.) О. Steinfeld dolgozatában Rees struktúratételének következő általánosítása szerepel: egy 5 (nullelemes) félcsoport akkor és csak akkor hasonlóan felbontható, ha egy null- és egységelemes félcsoport fölötti, lokálisan reguláris Rees-féle mátrixfélcsoporttal izomorf. E dolgozatban Rees másodiknak említett eredményét általánosítva szükséges és elégséges feltételt adunk arra, hogy két, null- és egységelemes félcsoport fölötti, lokálisan reguláris Rees-féle mátrixfélcsoport izomorf legyen. Az alapvető félcsoportelméleti eredményeket és fogalmakat illetően A. H. Clifford—G. В. Preston könyvére utalunk

    Description based upon print version of record.Includes bibliographical references and index.A provocative and inspiring look at the future of humanity and science from world-renowned scientist and bestselling author Martin ReesHumanity has reached a critical moment. Our world is unsettled and rapidly changing, and we face existential risks over the next century. Various outcomes--good and bad--are possible. Yet our approach to the future is characterized by short-term thinking, polarizing debates, alarmist rhetoric, and pessimism. In this short, exhilarating book, renowned scientist and bestselling author Martin Rees argues that humanity's prospects depend on our taking a very different approach to planning for tomorrow.The future of humanity is bound to the future of science and hinges on how successfully we harness technological advances to address our challenges. If we are to use science to solve our problems while avoiding its dystopian risks, we must think rationally, globally, collectively, and optimistically about the long term. Advances in biotechnology, cybertechnology, robotics, and artificial intelligence--if pursued and applied wisely--could empower us to boost the developing and developed world and overcome the threats humanity faces on Earth, from climate change to nuclear war. At the same time, further advances in space science will allow humans to explore the solar system and beyond with robots and AI. But there is no "Plan B" for Earth--no viable alternative within reach if we do not care for our home planet.Rich with fascinating insights into cutting-edge science and technology, this accessible book will captivate anyone who wants to understand the critical issues that will define the future of humanity on Earth and beyond.Cover -- Contents -- Preface to the Paperback Edition -- Introduction -- 1.

    James Dwire Rees, LL.B. Jimmy Varsity Baseball, Henry Clay Society. For love had touched his heart. Jimmy - a knight of the downy couch - was once known to rise from the appealing softness of his pillow before Eleven A.M., but the experiment was almost fatal and the dear boy never tried it again, since for the sake of some unfortunate maiden down in Mason he must take good care of his health. A very sentimental youth is he, as one might judge from the above sentence. Here\u27s wishing her good—and, naturally, that includes Jimmy. And the lawyers smiled that afternoon, When he hummed in court an old love tune. -The Kentuckian, 1911------------------------------------ James Dwire Rees Sr. (August 3, 1890 - February 3, 1946) was born in Mason County, Kentucky to Daniel James Rees and Margaret J. Bramel. After graduation from the College of Law, Rees moved to Saskatchewan, Canada and started a wheat farm. He served in the US Army during World War I and returned to Mason County when the war ended. He began a farm in Mason County. In the 1940s, Rees moved to Indiana and operated a golf course. Rees was married twice--his wives were Mary Inlow (m. 1912, d. early 1930s) and Doris Eileen Koch (m. 1936, d. before 1946). Rees did not practice law; however, his brother, William H. Rees, served on the Kentucky Court of Appeals and was, at one time, Chief Justice of the court.https://uknowledge.uky.edu/klapp_1911/1010/thumbnail.jp
