Most of Grothendieck’s manuscripts to be digitized
According to an article by Stéphane Foucart in Le Monde,
it has been announced at the Grothendieck conference in Montpellier that :
about 15,000 pages of manuscripts held by the university were nowin the
process of being digitized (that’s the archive that was givento Jean Malgoire
in the 1990’s, which in turn he donated to theuniversity)
about 50,000 pages found in Grothendieck’s Lasserre home will be digited
by the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (of Gallica fame), once legal hurdles
are cleared, and which contain a mix of mathematical and non-mathematical texts
Let’s see : assuming 50% of mathematical content, that’s (15,000+50,000)/2=32,500 pages.
Chopping that into bunches of 200 pages, that’s about 162 books. In comparison, Euler’s Collected Works are said to fill 60 to 80 books…
