In Memoriam Boris Auksmann (1927-2020)

Boris Auksmann is probably the most intelligent person whom I have ever met.
He earned a PhD in engineering, held a teaching position at the California Institute of Technology (CalTech), then later worked as a court expert on accident reconstructions.

What are you going to write when borders are closed and the person you would like to contact is out of reach?
Does everything come down to the basic question: how are you?
