Houston, Evan (ed.); Olberding, Bruce (ed.); Salce, Luigi (ed.); Tartarone, Francesca (ed.) Foreword to special issue dedicated to Marco Fontana. (English) Zbl 1453.00031 Commun. Algebra 43, No. 1, 1-2 (2015). From the text: This special issue, dedicated to the work of Marco Fontana, is a collection of original research papers representing a wide range of authors, many of whom have collaborated with Marco on past research, editorial of professional projects, and all of whom have been influenced by his far-reaching impact on commutative ring theory over the past four decades. Many of this articles reflect Marco’s research interests over his long and productive career. This issue is occasioned by the conference “Commutative Rings and their Modules, 2012”, held in Bressanone in June 2012 in honor of Marco’s 65th birthday, and it is particularly fitting that such a conference should serve as the impetus for the issue, since so much progress and energy in commutative ring theory – especially non-Noetherian commutative ring and module theory – has resulted from the numerous conferences and publication projects organized by Marco over these last decades.
