THE MATHEMATICIAN SOPHUS LIE
Ouvrage 9783540421375 : THE MATHEMATICIAN SOPHUS LIE
Sophus Lie (1842-1899) is without doubt one of Norway's greatest
scientific talents. His mathematical works have made him famous around
the world no less than Niels Henrik Abel. The terms Lie groups and Lie
algebra are today part of the standard mathematical vocabulary. In his
comprehensive biography the author Arild Stubhaug let us come close to
both the person Sophus Lie and his time. We follow him through childhood
at the vicarage in Nodfjordeid, his growing up in Moss, school and
studying in Christiania, travelling in Europe and his contacts with the
leading mathematicians of his time. The academic and scientific career
brought Lie from Christiania to Leipzig as professor, before the attempt
to call him back to Norway, when she stood on the threshhold to national
sovereignty, was successful.
