    No full text
    This letter is from the Haydn Neal Thompson Letter Collection. Contents of the collection include correspondence, primarily handwritten and of a personal nature. The bulk of materials are from Thompson's family members, including his mother, Marie Thompson, and sister, Janet Thompson, with a few letters from aunts and cousins. The remaining majority consists of letters from friends, primarily girlfriends. The conversation across letters emphasizes school and social happenings. Politics and the economy (Great Depression) do not receive much notice, though a change in the tone of letters is noticeable from the 1920's to the 1930's, becoming more sober and fatalistic

    Fixed points of finite groups acting on generalised Thompson groups

    No full text
    We study centralisers of finite order automorphisms of the generalised Thompson groups Fn, ? and conjugacy classes of finite sub- groups in finite extensions of Fn, ?. In particular we show that centralisers of finite automorphisms in Fn, ? are either of type FP? or not finitely generated. As an application we deduce the following result about the Bredon type of such finite extensions: any finite extension of Fn, ?, where the elements of finite order act on Fn, ? via conjugation with piecewise-linear homeomorphisms, is of type Bredon F?. In particular finite extensions of F = F2,? are of type Bredon F?

    Elizabeth F. Thompson, Leila Farsakh, and Robert Laffey discuss, Hope Arab Spring Eternal at Ford Hall Forum, video recording, 5/16/2013

    How much closer are Middle Eastern countries to having functioning constitutional governments than they were in the spring of 2011? How will such governments impact their economies? What unique challenges and opportunities has each country faced in building new government? How has the culture played into the emerging politics? Elizabeth F. Thompson (author, Justice Interrupted) and Leila Farsakh (Associate Professor of Political Science, UMass Boston) join us to provide an update on happenings in the Middle East, particularly in terms of consequences we did not foresee two years ago. Robert Laffey (Assistant Professor of Government, Suffolk University) guides this discussion on post-Arab Spring sociopolitical changes, mining Thompson\u27s book for historical context and Farsakh\u27s research for current insights. Elizabeth F. Thompson will be signing and selling copies of her book, Justice Interrupted, at the end of the event.https://dc.suffolk.edu/fhf-av/1129/thumbnail.jp
