Results of the Second Competition (2003–2004) 25.10.2004
Dear colleagues!
In summing up the results of the Second Competition on Hypercomplex Numbers and Related Spaces, despite the reduced number of participants, I would like to note the increased professionalism of the submitted papers. Unfortunately, due to the organizers' fault, the competition conditions did not sufficiently emphasize that the competition was intended to consider papers exclusively dealing with spaces whose metric functions cannot be reduced to ordinary quadratic relations. As a result, for purely formal reasons, we had to disqualify a number of very interesting and insightful papers, which undoubtedly represent a significant contribution to the development of Riemannian geometry. Of the six papers accepted for the competition, the jury considered the following to be the best and deserving of the announced prize:
1. G. S. Asanov, "Finsleroid Space Equipped with an Angle."
2. V. V. Kassandrov, "Algebrodynamics: Pre-Light, Caustic Particles, and Time Flow."
3. G. I. Garas'ko, "Generalized Analytic Functions of a Polynumerical Variable."
4. S. V. Lebedev, "Surface of Simultaneity in H3."
The prize fund was distributed among the winners in full. No distinction was made between the entries based on the prize placement, although the prize amounts varied somewhat.
To allow website visitors to express their opinions on the jury's decision, all competition entries are posted on a separate page.
