Unpublished Mathematics
Linear Operators between partially ordered Banach spaces and some related topics was the thesis for my Ph.D. awarded in 1973.
Affine functions on compact convex sets is a set of notes that I wrote in 1973 after deciding not to continue working in that area.
The Structure Space and Ideal Centre of a Banach Lattice
[1976] I think that the very first talk that I gave at a major
conference was at Silivri in Turkey. I prepared far too much material
but did at least prepare handouts. This assembles results in a way that
I have not seen elsewhere and includes some results (unfortunately only
the statements) that have never been published.
Operator Theoretic Characterizations of Completeness in Riesz Spaces
[1994] This is the text of a series of lectures at the Middle East
Technical University in Ankara, which assembled some familiar material
in a novel way.
Pure Mathematics? Positively Applied!
[1994] In the UK there is a long standing tradition that newly
appointed or promoted professors must give a public lecture entitled an
inaugural lecture. The audience for this is likely to include
not only academic staff from a wide variety of disciplines but also
friends and relatives. I gave mine in 1994 and it was the closest that
I have ever come to preparing a popular talk. Unfortunately, the link
here does not include the graphics. I have to admit that afterwards my
father confessed that the lecture was the most boring hour of his life!
Vector and Banach Lattices and Operators on Banach Lattices
[2007] These are two series of expository talks that I gave at the
workshop preceding the July 2007 Positivity V conference which was held
in Belfast.
The order structure of regular operators between Banach lattices
[2008] In March 2008, I was to talk at a workshop in Sevilla, but was
prevented by illness. The talk contains some material that is not yet
published elsewhere so may be of interest.
