Some remarks on the career of Howard H. Wicke and our work together (Q1962108)

Conclusion: ``In our work together in topological research, Professor Wicke and I strived to bring into harmony intrinsic formulations of structure and extrinsic compactification formulations. I have provided some glimpses of our work as we sought to find a coherent theory of topological uniformization, going beyond domains of naïve equivalence of these monotonic and finite intersection base formulations that are required by the presence of certain implicit paracompactness-like covering properties. I have also sought to provide a sense of the extraordinary impact Professor Wicke has had, in both an academic environment and one of applied science. Most of all, I have endeavored to show that these accomplishments do not depend upon his brilliant intellect alone. His career and work illustrate Einstein's observation that even the most significant intellectual achievements are fundamentally grounded in attributes of character.''
