"I have always been interested in the fundamentals of mathematics. To know if all that is true is demonstrable."
"I sent my file through the Paris Diderot University. I was selected and I had a monthly scholarship of 1,700 euros for the duration of my thesis, that is to say three years, in addition to a stipend of 5,000 euros to buy the material needed."
"I am currently a research fellow at the CNRS at the LIP. My research interests include proof theory and the study of circular proofs for verification, with a recent shift toward relation algebras, graph logic, and automata theory."
"If you didn't understand much of what I said, don't worry, that's normal! It's math, and we're not all geniuses."
"Let's call this formula the great implication. If we fail to prove the great implication, it is because the system does not verify the specifications. But if we prove it, we are sure that the system satisfies the specification. Moreover, this proof can be seen as a certificate, which can be communicated and even executed. This technique is also more informative than others; the proof tells us why the system verifies the property, which provides explanatory elements and therefore additional confidence."
Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
