3 lives in this collection worked in riemann surfaces, from 1859 to today. Each has a full course on their life and the mathematics and physics they made.
Often together with: complex analysis, algebra, number theory. All fields
Teacher of Hilbert and Minkowski, whose name is attached to the Hurwitz zeta function, the Riemann–Hurwitz formula, the Routh–Hurwitz stability criterion and the 1, 2, 4, 8 theorem on composition algebras.
number theory, complex analysis, riemann surfaces
Finnish-American complex analyst, one of the first two Fields Medallists, who made value distribution theory geometric and with Lipman Bers founded the modern theory of quasiconformal maps, Teichmüller spaces and Kleinian groups.
complex analysis, geometric function theory, quasiconformal mappings
Founder of Teichmüller theory through quasiconformal mappings and quadratic differentials, author of key ideas in valuation theory and Galois cohomology, and an active Nazi who led the 1933 boycott of Edmund Landau.
