Eratosthenes: Biography of a Great Thinker
Eratosthenes (c. 276 BC -- c.194 BC) was a Greek scholar nicknamed "Beta." This is because he was considered the second best in so many fields. Despite the dismissive nickname, Eratosthenes is still celebrated to this day for his significant contributions to math, astronomy, and geograph

Xu Zhendong - From the Littlewood-Paley-Stein Inequality to the Burkholder-Gundy Inequality
We solve a question asked by Xu about the order of optimal constants in the Littlewood-Paley-Stein inequality. This relies on a construction of a special diffusion semi-group associated with a martingale which relates the Littlewood G-function with the martingale square function pointwise.
