Abstract
- I trace the main steps of the first fifty-five years of my career as an applied mathematician, pausing from time to time to describe problems that arose in asymptotics and numerical analysis and had far-reaching effects on this career. Lecture delivered at Asymptotics and Applied Analysis, Conference in Honor of Frank W. J. Olver's 75th Birthday, January 10-14, 2000, San Diego State University, San Diego, California. Editors' Note: Frank W. J. Olver died on April 23, 2013. The following text was typed by his son, Peter J. Olver, from handwritten notes found among his papers. At times the writing is unpolished, including incomplete sentences, but the editors have decided to leave it essentially the way it was written. However, for clarity, some abbreviations have been written out in full. A couple of handwritten words could not be deciphered, and a guess for what was intended is enclosed in brackets: [...]. Endnotes have been made into footnotes within the body of the article. References were mostly not included in the handwritten text, but rather listed in order at the end. Citations to references have been included at the appropriate point in the text. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
