Bernhard Riemann, German Mathematician

Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann (September 17, 1826 - July 20, 1866) was a German mathematician who made lasting contributions to analysis, number theory, and differential geometry, some of them enabling the later development of general relativity. His teachers were amazed by his adept ability to perform complicated mathematical operations, in which he often outstripped his instructor's knowledge. In 1846, at the age of 19, he started studying philology and theology at the University of Gottingenin. He also began studying mathematics under Carl Friedrich Gauss who recommended the give up his theological work and enter the mathematical field. He held his first lectures in 1854, which founded the field of Riemannian geometry and thereby set the stage for Einstein's general theory of relativity. He died of tuberculosis in 1866 at the age of 39. His published works opened up research areas combining analysis with geometry. These would subsequently become major parts of the theories of Riemannian geometry, algebraic geometry, and complex manifold theory.

Título:
Bernhard Riemann, German Mathematician
Descripción:
Traducción automática: Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann (17 de septiembre de 1826 - 20 de julio de 1866) fue un matemático alemán que hizo contribuciones duraderas al análisis, la teoría de números y la geometría diferencial, algunas de las cuales permitieron el desarrollo posterior de la relatividad general. Sus maestros estaban asombrados por su hábil habilidad para realizar operaciones matemáticas complicadas, en las que a menudo superaba los conocimientos de su instructor. En 1846, a la edad de 19 años, comenzó a estudiar filología y teología en la Universidad de Gotinga. También comenzó a estudiar matemáticas con Carl Friedrich Gauss, quien le recomendó abandonar su trabajo teológico e ingresar al campo matemático. Dio sus primeras conferencias en 1854, que fundaron el campo de la geometría riemanniana y, por lo tanto, sentaron las bases para la teoría general de la relatividad de Einstein. Murió de tuberculosis en 1866 a la edad de 39 años. Sus trabajos publicados abrieron áreas de investigación que combinaban el análisis con la geometría. Posteriormente, estos se convertirían en partes importantes de las teorías de la geometría de Riemann, la geometría algebraica y la teoría de las variedades complejas.
