Sep 20, 1996 · Never, mathematicians say, has there been an individual like Paul Erdős. He was one of the century's greatest mathematicians, who posed and solved thorny problems in number theory and other areas and founded the field of discrete mathematics, which is the foundation of computer science.
Jan 24, 2024 · Erdős (pronounced “air-duhsh”—the mark on the “ő” is a Hungarian double acute accent, not an umlaut) was born in Budapest in 1913 to two high school math teachers. He was a pampered prodigy. By...
Paul Erdős (1913–1996) was an influential Hungarian mathematician who in the latter part of his life spent a great deal of time writing papers with a large number of colleagues—over 500—working on solutions to outstanding mathematical problems. [1] .
Jan 1, 2013 · Erdős is the mathematician par excellence: he thrives on mathematics, living in a state of continuous excitement; he raises, answers and communicates questions, picking up the problems of others and making incisive contributions to them with lightning speed.
Paul Erdős, (born March 26, 1913, Budapest, Hung.—died Sept. 20, 1996, Warsaw, Pol.), Hungarian mathematician. He proved a classic theorem of number theory (1933), founded the study of probabilistic number theory with Aurel Wintner and Mark Kac, proved important results in approximation theory with Paul Turan, and with Atle Selberg gave an ...
Jan 1, 2013 · Over a span of more than 60 years, Paul Erdős took the art of collaborative research in mathematics to heights never before achieved. In this brief look at his collaborative efforts, we will explore the breadth of Paul’s interests, the company he...
Paul Erdős was one of the greatest mathematical figures of the twentieth century. An enormous number of obituaries have appeared since his death, which is very unusual in the world of science. Paul Erdős had already become a legend in his own lifetime.
