5 天之前 · David Hilbert, German mathematician who reduced geometry to a series of axioms and contributed substantially to the establishment of the formalistic foundations of mathematics. His work in 1909 on integral equations led to 20th-century research in functional analysis.

2012年1月23日 · Hilbert's work in geometry had the greatest influence in that area after Euclid. A systematic study of the axioms of Euclidean geometry led Hilbert to propose 21 such axioms and he analysed their significance. He made contributions in many areas of mathematics and physics.

David Hilbert was one of the mathematical greats of the 19th and 20th centuries. Today, mathematics and physics are still powerfully influenced by his work and his vision. David Hilbert was born on January 23, 1862, in Königsberg, Prussia, on the Baltic Sea. Königsberg is now called Kaliningrad and is part of Russia.

David Hilbert was preeminent in numerous fields of mathematics, comprising axiomatic theory, algebraic number theory, invariant theory, class field theory as well as functional analysis. His calculus examination led him to invent “Hilbert space,” considered to be among the primary concepts of functional analysis as well as modern ...
