Biography of Georg Riemann

Recognized as one of the greatest mathematicians of the ordinal century, Georg Riemann, more commonly cognise as Bernhard Riemann, made numerous enormous contributions to mathematics. Gauss even describes him as a creative, active rattling mathematical mind, and of a gloriously ertile originality(Flood and Wilson, 96).\nBorn September 17th, 1826 to a poor Lutheran parson in the small townsfolk of Breselenz, Ger many a(prenominal), Georg Riemann quickly came to love mathematics. In 1840 Georg moved in with his naan to assist middle groom and two years subsequent when his grandmother died moved to Lueneburg to attend the Johanneum(high school). His instructor, recognizing his mathematical abilities, lent Georg modern math books; who normally brought the books clog up in a some days to discuss them. In 1846, his father sent him the University of Göttingen, where he started to study linguistics and theology to take later on his father. Regularly attending classes in mathe matics, his father finally gave him licence to pursue his dream of beseeming a mathematician. In 1847, he transferred to the University of Berlin and studied under many world renowned mathematicians much(prenominal) as Jacobi, Steiner, and Einstein; reverting to Göttingen in 1849. On December 16th, 1851, Georg received his Ph.D. for his thesis complex function scheme and Riemann surfaces. Georg soon became a professor at Göttingen subsequently the death of Dirichlet in 1859. In June of 1862, he married Elise Koch, and had a daughter. July 20th, 1866 Georg Riemann died of Tuberculosis, on a slip to Italy(Hering).\nBeing on of the leadership mathematicians of the nineteenth century, Riemann introduced many ideas in complex and real analysis, differential gear geometry and, number theory. Probably the close famous of Riemanns published kit and boodle Über die Hypothesen welche der Geometrie zu Grunde liegen (On the hypotheses which be geometry) introduces his theory of h igher dimensions. In this paper Georg explains h...
