Ludwig Georg Elias Moses Bieberbach was a German mathematician and leading representative of National Socialist German mathematics.
Hugo Hadwiger was a Swiss mathematician, known for his work in geometry, combinatorics, and cryptography.
The European Mathematical Society (EMS) is a European organization dedicated to the development of mathematics in Europe. Its members are different mathematical societies in Europe, academic institutions and individual mathematicians. The current president is Jan Philip Solovej, professor at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Copenhagen.
Mathematical Reviews is a journal published by the American Mathematical Society (AMS) that contains brief synopses, and in some cases evaluations, of many articles in mathematics, statistics, and theoretical computer science. The AMS also publishes an associated online bibliographic database called MathSciNet, which contains an electronic version of Mathematical Reviews.
zbMATHOpen, formerly Zentralblatt MATH, is a major reviewing service providing reviews and abstracts for articles in pure and applied mathematics, produced by the Berlin office of FIZ Karlsruhe – Leibniz Institute for Information Infrastructure GmbH. Editors are the European Mathematical Society, FIZ Karlsruhe, and the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences. zbMATH is distributed by Springer Science+Business Media. It uses the Mathematics Subject Classification codes for organising reviews by topic.
Hans Adolph Rademacher was a German-born American mathematician, known for work in mathematical analysis and number theory.
The Swiss Mathematical Society, founded in Basel on September 4, 1910, is the national mathematical society of Switzerland and a member society of the European Mathematical Society. It is notably running the scholarly journal Commentarii Mathematici Helvetici and Elemente der Mathematik, both currently published by the European Mathematical Society.
Gesnerus was a biannual peer-reviewed academic journal covering the history of medicine and science that was published by the Schwabe Verlag on behalf of the Swiss Society for the History of Medicine and Sciences, of which it was the official journal. It published original articles, book reviews, reports on current developments, and announcements in English, German, French, and Italian. The journal was established in 1864 and published until 2020, when it merged into the European Journal for the History of Medicine and Health.
Jiří (Jirka) Matoušek was a Czech mathematician working in computational geometry and algebraic topology. He was a professor at Charles University in Prague and the author of several textbooks and research monographs.
The Commentarii Mathematici Helvetici is a quarterly peer-reviewed scientific journal in mathematics. The Swiss Mathematical Society started the journal in 1929 after a meeting in May of the previous year. The Swiss Mathematical Society still owns and operates the journal; the publishing is currently handled on its behalf by the European Mathematical Society. The scope of the journal includes research articles in all aspects in mathematics. The editors-in-chief have been Rudolf Fueter (1929–1949), J.J. Burckhardt (1950–1981), P. Gabriel (1982–1989), H. Kraft (1990–2005), and Eva Bayer-Fluckiger (2006–present).
Andreas Speiser was a Swiss mathematician and philosopher of science.
Alhazen's problem, also known as Alhazen's billiard problem, is a mathematical problem in geometrical optics first formulated by Ptolemy in 150 AD. It is named for the 11th-century Arab mathematician Alhazen who presented a geometric solution in his Book of Optics. The algebraic solution involves quartic equations and was found in 1965 by Jack M. Elkin.
Journal of the European Mathematical Society is a monthly peer-reviewed mathematical journal. Founded in 1999, the journal publishes articles on all areas of pure and applied mathematics.
Monatshefte für Mathematik is a peer-reviewed mathematics journal established in 1890. Among its well-known papers is "Über formal unentscheidbare Sätze der Principia Mathematica und verwandter Systeme I" by Kurt Gödel, published in 1931.
Frank Natterer is a German mathematician. He was born in Wangen im Allgäu, Germany. Natterer pioneered and shaped the field of mathematical methods in imaging including computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonic imaging.
Israel Kleiner is a Canadian mathematician and historian of mathematics.
Jacqueline Anne "Jackie" Stedall was a British mathematics historian. She wrote nine books, and appeared on radio on BBC Radio 4's In Our Time programme.
Ioannis "John" N. Hazzidakis was a Greek mathematician, physicist, author, and professor. He is one of the most important mathematicians of the modern Greek scientific era. His professor was world renowned Greek mathematician Vassilios Lakon. He also studied with famous German mathematicians Ernst Kummer, Leopold Kronecker, Karl Weierstrass. He systematically worked in the field of research and education. He wrote textbooks in the field of algebra, geometry, and calculus. Hazzidakis essentially adopted some elements of Lacon's Geometry. He introduced the Hazzidakis transform in differential geometry. The Hazzidakis formula for the Hazzidakis transform can be applied in proving Hilbert's theorem on negative curvature, stating that hyperbolic geometry does not have a model in 3-dimensional Euclidean space.
Johann Jakob Burckhardt was a Swiss mathematician and crystallographer. He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1936 in Oslo.
Meike Maria Elisabeth Akveld is a Swiss mathematician and textbook author, whose professional interests include knot theory, symplectic geometry, and mathematics education. She is a tenured senior scientist and lecturer in the mathematics and teacher education group in the Department of Mathematics at ETH Zurich. She is also the organizer of the Mathematical Kangaroo competitions in Switzerland, and president of the Association Kangourou sans Frontières, a French-based international society devoted to the popularization of mathematics.
