Abstract
In 1967 I graduated in mathematics from Ghent university in Belgium. I was very happy to immediately get a grant from the National Institute for Research in Industry and Agriculture (the predecessor of the current Flemish research sponsor IWT) in order to perform research on diffraction of electrons by crystals. In January 1970 I obtained the Ph D degree in mathematics from Ghent university on a dissertation entitled “A theoretical contribution to low energy electron diffraction (LEED) by crystals”. Those days the so-called modern mathematics entered into the secondary schools and universities, i.e., mathematics based on Cantor’s set theory. Despite the warm welcome by the famous David Hilbert: “No one will drive us from the paradise Cantor created for us”, it took about 3 quarters of a century before set theory has been accepted as the language of contemporary science in general and mathematics in particular.KeywordsFuzzy TopologyFuzzy Topological SpaceFuzzy Mathematical MorphologyFuzzy Information RetrievalFuzzy Relational CalculusThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
