His interests started primarily in analysis but moved into mathematical logic. Schechter is best known for his 1996 book Handbook of Analysis and its Foundations, which provides a novel approach to mathematical analysis and related topics at the graduate level. Important worksSchechter has authored a number of articles in analysis, differential equations, mathematical logic, and set theory. He is best known for writing two textbooks covering advanced material but written at an introductory level:
Handbook of Analysis and its Foundations was reviewed at length by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics review, which wrote: Every once in a while a book comes along that so effectively redefines an educational enterprise -- in this case, graduate mathematical training -- and so effectively reexamines the hegemony of ideas prevailing in a discipline -- in this case, mathematical analysis -- that it deserves our careful attention. This is such a book..[1] Schechter also maintains two webpages that are frequently cited:
PoliticsSchechter is involved in political activism of the democratic socialist variety. His mathematical homepage includes a few anti-war statements,[2] and his political home page includes a long essay about progressive ideology.[3] He has worked as an organizer for the Nashville Peace Coalition, protesting the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.[4] At a meeting for the Living wage movement on Vanderbilt's campus, he remarked that it is hard to bring up politics in a non-political environment, and expressed that people did not talk much about politics in the mathematics department at Vanderbilt.[5] His father, Henry Schechter, was a deputy of the AFL-CIO.[6] In 2010, Schechter ran for Tennessee's 5th Congressional District seat against incumbent congressman Jim Cooper,[7] but was defeated in the Democratic primary. Schechter describes himself as "a different kind of Democrat." [8] References1. ^ , S.I.A.M.
