Biographical Note
Francis Louis Miksa was born in Krakow, Poland in 1901, emigrating with
his parents to the United States in 1904. He grew up largely in Braidwood,
Illinois, completing the sixth grade before going to work. Self-education and
correspondence school courses led to an interest in mathematics. He married
Frances Barowicz in 1924. From 1930 until his retirement in 1963, Mr. Miksa
worked as a switchman for the Illinois Bell Telephone Company. He died in
1975.
Mr. Miksa's mathematical work began with problem-solving; he
corresponded with other workers and submitted problems and solutions to the
problem-solving literature. Beginning around 1939, he began work on magic
squares and other areas, including Pythagorean triangles, and several number
theory and combinatoric topics. He also developed dyad squares, his own
invention. He deposited several tables with
Mathematics of Computation, and his table of
Stirling numbers was published by the National Bureau of Standards. His
interest in magic squares led to new algorithms for producing 5×5 and 7×7 magic
squares exhaustively without duplication. This work is embodied in a six volume
dittoed work. Mr. Miksa carried on a wide correspondence among recreational and
professional mathematicians. His correspondence with Leo Moser resulted in
collaboration in published work.

Scope and Contents:
Papers contain Mr. Miksa's correspondence with problem-solvers, amateur,
and professional mathematicians. Letters may occur in the correspondence files
(1937-1972; 19 in.), or with associated mathematical work. The bulk of the
collection consists of calculations and drafts for Mr. Miksa's work on magic
squares, Pythagorean triangles, dyad squares, Stirling numbers, various number
theory topics, and problem-solving. The development of his studies of magic and
dyad squares, both involving applications of group theory methods, is well
illustrated in the letters, calculations, and preliminary tables. Mr. Miksa
kept his papers largely in looseleaf notebooks, sometimes with more than one
mathematical topic occupying a notebook. These original files have usually been
kept together, necessitating the Unidentified and Mixed Contents series.
Correspondents include W.H. Benson, A.L. Candy, R.E. Greenwood, J.S. Madachy,
S.A. Moore, L. Moser, C. Tobin, and C.W. Trigg. Letters to R.E. Greenwood are
located in the GREENWOOD (ROBERT E.) PAPERS.
