Alexandra Bellow
Alexandra Bellow received her M.S. in Mathematics from the University of Bucharest in 1957Some of her early work involved properties and consequences of lifting. A ‘lifting’ is a linear and multiplicative mapping which selects one function from each equivalence class of bounded measurable functions; there are also natural generalizations of this notion to abstract-valued functions. -
