✦ Synopsis

On October 18᎐20, 1997, we 1 convened a conference entitled ''Commutative Algebra, Representation Theory and Combinatorics'' at Northeastern University in honor of our mentor and teacher David Buchsbaum. Many wonderful mathematicians, among them a large proportion of Buchsbaum's Ph.D. students, listed below, came from all over the world to attend. The mathematical program was packed, and even so required a poster session to take the overflow of people wishing to contribute. An elaborate volume of abstracts and notes was prepared by Northeastern University. The volume in your hands contains a number of the papers presented, as well as other papers submitted in David's honor.

After sojourns at Princeton, Chicago, and Brown Universities, Buchsbaum came to Brandeis University in 1961. Brandeis was then in the early Ε½ years of its Ph.D. program David Eisenbud went for an interview as a . prospective Ph.D. student in 1966 and decided ''Too new!'' and Buchsbaum played a major role in forming the department and its traditions. He was three times chair of the Brandeis Mathematics department. A fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, he retired from Brandeis, as the Berenson Professor of Mathematics, in the spring of 1999.

A large number of people think of Buchsbaum as their mentor, first and foremost his 21 Ph.D. students:

A well known result is that skewness can cause problems when testing hypotheses about measures of location, particulary when a one-sided test is of interest. Wilcox (1994) reports both theoretical and simulation results showing that when testing hypotheses about trimmed means, control over Type I er

How Many Defensive Uses Per Year?" The article focused on how frequently Americans use a gun to defend against a criminal attack (called defensive gun uses or DGUs). Cook, Ludwig, and Hemenway argued that one published estimate of 2.5 million is a dramatic overestimate of the true incidence of defen
