9 Syndicated columns in print and internet media Regularly appearing columns in - Magazine KARL - Magazine Schachwelt (Chess World) - Internet-Portal CHESSBASE, multi-language (German, English, Spanish) with over hits per day and partial translations of my columns into Arabic, Greek, Czech and selected other languages The contentual themes of the columns are from the areas of Chess and Mathematics and especially from the interface of both disciplines. The aim is to improve the publics view of the abstract science of Mathematics and to enhance the visibility of the mind-sport Chess. Further publications 1. Hesse, C.H. (1987).
