DOB[edit]

Is her date of birth public knowledge? It was added by anon. Billlion 13:20, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

To answer my own question. Yes it is in her book "to talk of many things" for example. Billlion 22:12, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The information about her date of birth is available to the public in Central London. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.123.215.180 (talk) 09:17, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Deaf[edit]

She's not deaf, just hard-of-hearing. But I suppose me having spoken to her today would count as original research? Lordofthe9 17:53, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think her point was that she would be without a hearing aid. See "To talk of many things" eg p20 ".. it brought on sensori-neural deafness" She also explains that" learnt lip reading". She consistently describes her self as deaf. I expect her lip reading ability is now more restricted as her sight is also declining. Billlion 22:10, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Publications[edit]

Here are the 26 mathematical papers known to MathSciNet that she wrote. I wonder if more about her work on lattices should be mentioned?
