In spite of his somewhat fragmented education (he never completed a formal doctoral program), Stefan Banach made important contributions to a number of fields of mathematics, including the theory of orthogonal series, topology, the theory of measure...

Joan Banach's five sepia-toned paintings, all oil on wood and dated 1997 or '98, derive their tension and mystery from a mix of figurative imagery and abstract painting practices. Dramatic and dreamlike, each work has a straightforward figurative element, usually at center stage....

Abstract: In this study we introduce a novel class of normed spaces called weakly Cauchy normed spaces not necessarily complete in general and proved the existence of a fixed point of contraction mappings in these spaces, this is weaker assumption than the completeness...
