Niels Henrik Abel (1802 bis 1829)Norwegen Niels Henrik Abel wurde am 5. August 1802 auf Finnöy in Südwestnorwegen als Sohn eines Landpastors geboren. Aufgrund großer finanzieller Probleme wurde Abel anfangs von seinem Vater unterrichtet. Mit großen Schwierigkeiten gelang es dann doch, Niels Henrik Abel und seinen Bruder an der Domschule in Oslo unterzubringen, wo sie finanzielle Unterstützung erhielten. Als ein Mitschüler Abels an den Folgen einer Mißhandlung durch den Lehrer verstarb, folgte diesem Bernt Michael Holmboe nach, welcher Abels mathematisches Talten erkannte, und ihn ermutigte Werke von Poisson, Gauß, Newton, d´Alembert und Lagrange zu studieren. Er bahnte sich den Weg zu zentralen Fragen mathematischer Forschung als Autodidakt. Schon bald begann Abel, eigene Untersuchungen anzustellen. Seine Ergebnisse konnten von Norwegens Mathematikern jedoch weder bestätigt noch widerlegt werden, und so entbrannte eine öffentliche Diskussion, die Abel großes Ansehen brachte, sodaß er 1821 an der Universität Oslo immatrikulieren konnte. 1823 reiste er nach Kopenhagen, wo er im selben Jahr selbständig entdeckte, daß die Auflösung der Gleichung fünften Grades in Radikalen unmöglich ist. 1824 wurde seine erste Abhandlung im "Magazin for Naturvidenskaben" publiziert. Nachdem er in seiner Heimat keine Hilfe auf einem höheren Niveau erhalten konnte, begann er 1825 eine Studienreise durch Europa, welche ihm durch ein Stipendium von Professor Hansteen ermöglicht wurde. 1826 erschien die erste Ausgabe des von Crelle herausgegebenen Journals für reine und angewandte Mathematik, welches zwei Artikel von Abel enthielt, unter anderem die Abhandlung "Beweis der Unmöglichkeit der algebraischen Auflösbarkeit der allgemeinen Gleichungen, welche den vierten Grad übersteigen".

Et portrett av Abel
Norges største matematiker
Niels Henrik Abel ble født 5. august 1802 på Finnøy i Ryfylke. Faren var sogneprest der, men allerede da Niels Henrik var to år gammel, flyttet familien til Gjerstad i Aust-Agder. Der tilbrakte Niels Henrik resten av sin barndom. Han var den nest eldste av seks søsken. Faren til Niels Henrik ble betegnet som «meget egenrådig», og han var heller ikke særlig flink med økonomien. Det førte til at tilværelsen for familien hans ble svært vanskelig. Da han døde i 1820, ble moren sittende igjen med stor gjeld og seks barn mellom seks og tjue år. Den eldste var sinnssyk. Moren til Niels Henrik ble omtalt som «overordentlig smuk, men aldeles karakterløs», og skal visstnok allerede fra 15-års-alderen ha hengitt seg til «overdreven nytelse av alkohol», noe som gikk i arv til alle sønnene unntatt Niels Henrik. Denne vanskelige familiesituasjonen kom til å plage Niels Henrik gjennom hele studietiden. Niels Henrik Abel ble skrevet inn på Christiania katedralskole allerede da han var 13 år. Inntil da hadde han blitt undervist av sin far. Den første tiden på katedralskolen utmerket han seg ikke noe særlig. Da matematikklæreren hans døde, fikk Abel ny matematikklærer, Bernt Michael Holmboe. Holmboe fikk stor betydning for Abels virke innenfor matematikken. Han hadde en sterk tro på Abel gjennom alle år, noe som kom til uttrykk gjennom følgende uttalelse om Abel i karakterprotokollen : «at han visstnok, om han lever, vil bli en stor matematiker». De tre siste ordene er rettet, og det har antagelig stått «verdens beste matematiker». Rettelsen skal de eldre lærerne ved katedralskolen ha stått for. Det var bare i de matematiske fagene Abel utmerket seg. I både aritmetikk og geometri fikk han 1 (med slange). I de andre fagene derimot var det flest 3-ere (1-var på den tiden beste karakter).

Niels Henrik Abel
Born: 5 Aug 1802 in Finnoy (an island near Stavanger), Norway
Died: 16 April 1829 in Froland, Norway Niels Henrik Abel was born August 5th, 1802 in Finnoy Norway. He like many other famous mathematicians was dirt poor all his life. His father had a degree in theology and philosophy, and became involved in the political independence of Norway. He was also involved in writing a new constitution in 1814. However his father made false charges against some of his colleagues and this lead to the end of his political career. His father passed away in 1820. Abel was discovered to have a great knowledge of mathematics by his teacher Bernt Holmboe. After his father's death, Abel was able to attend the University of Christiania in 1821. This could have only happened due to Holboes help in obtaining a scholarship. One year after he started his studies he graduated from the University, but he had already accomplished so much. Abel's trip to Germany did however allow him to meet Crelle, who would publish the first journal entirely devoted to mathematics. In 1827 in the first volume of Crelle's Journal, Abel's work, Recherches sur les fonctions elliptiques was published. This was instrumental in establishing mathematical analysis on a rigorous basis. After returning to Norway heavily in debt, he became very ill and was informed he had tuberculosis. Despite his bad health and poverty he continued writing papers on equation theory and elliptic functions. This continued work had major importance in the development of the whole theory of elliptic functions. Abel revolutionized the understanding of elliptic functions by studying the inverse of these functions.

Niels Abel probó la imposibilidad de resolver algebraicamente ecuaciones de quinto grado. La vida de Abel estuvo dominada por la pobreza. Después de muerto su padre, quien era un ministro protestante, Abel tuvo que asumir la responsabilidad de mantener a su madre y familia, en 1820. El profesor de Abel, Holmboe, reconoció su talento para las matemáticas, debido a su falta de dinero para asistir a una colegiatura para ingresar a la universidad de Christiania, ingresó a la universidad en 1821, diez años después de que la universidad fuera fundada, y se graduó en 1822. Abel publicó en 1823 escritos de ecuaciones funcionales e integrales . En esto Abel dio la primera solución de una ecuación integral. En 1824 probó que era imposible resolver algebraicamente ecuaciones de quinto grado y de su propio costo realizó publicaciones con la esperanza de obtener reconocimiento por su trabajo. Eventualmente ganó un premio de escolaridad del gobierno para viajar al extranjero, visitó Alemania y Francia.

Abel, Niels Henrik (1802-1829)

Norwegian mathematician who accomplished an amazing amount of brilliant work in his short lifetime. Abel was born on August 5, 1802 in the small village of Findoe, Norway, where his father was minister in the diocese of Christiansand. Abel's life was spent in poverty, caused by the large size of his family (he had six brothers and his father died when he was only eighteen) and the difficult economic situation in Norway at that time. Abel died of tuberculosis at the age of 26 after being forced to live in miserable conditions because of his inability to obtain a university post. At the age of 16, Abel gave a proof of the binomial theorem valid for all numbers, extending Euler's result which had only held for rationals At age 19, he showed there is no general algebraic solution for the roots of a quintic equation or any general polynomial equation of degree greater than four, in terms of explicit algebraic operations. To do this, he invented (independently of Galois ) an extremely important branch of mathematics known as group theory which is invaluable not only in many areas of mathematics, but for much of physics as well. Among his other accomplishments, Abel wrote a monumental work on

Niels Abel 's life was dominated by poverty and we begin by putting this in context by looking briefly at the political problems which led to economic problems in Norway. At the end of the 18 th century Norway was part of Denmark and the Danish tried to remain neutral through the Napoleonic wars. However a neutrality treaty in 1794 was considered a aggressive act by England and, in 1801, the English fleet destroyed most of the Danish fleet in a battle in the harbour at Copenhagen. Despite this Denmark-Norway avoided wars until 1807 when England feared that the Danish fleet might be used by the French to invade. Using the philosophy that attack is the best form of defence, the English attacked and captured the whole Danish fleet in October 1807. Denmark then joined the alliance against England. The continental powers blockaded England, and as a counter to this England blockaded Norway. The twin blockade was a catastrophe to Norway preventing their timber exports, which had been largely to Britain, and preventing their grain imports from Denmark. An economic crisis in Norway followed with the people suffering hunger and extreme poverty. In 1813 Sweden attacked Denmark from the south and, at the treaty of Kiel in January 1814, Denmark handed over Norway to Sweden. An attempt at independence by Norway a few months later led to Sweden attacking Norway in July 1814. Sweden gained control of Norway, setting up a complete internal self-government for Norway with a government in Christiania (which is called Oslo today). In this difficult time Abel was growing up in Gjerstad in south-east Norway.

10.1. Abel, Niels (1802-1829)
IRA Niels Abel was one of the innovators in the field of elliptic functions, discoverer of Abelian functions and one of the leaders in the use of rigor in mathematics. His work was so revolutionary that one mathematician stated: "He has left mathematicians something to keep them busy for five hundred years." However, his life did not mirror his mathematical success and his story is one of the most tragic in the sciences. Abel's first main contribution to mathematics came before entering college. For hundreds of years, mathematicians had searched in vain to discover the general solution for the quintic equation a x + b x + c x + d x + e x + f = . Abel developed what he thought was the answer. Holmboe and Hansteen knew there was no one in Norway with the ability to understand if the answer was correct, so they sent the paper to the mathematician Ferdinand Degen in Denmark. Before receiving an answer, Abel discovered a mistake in his figures and questioned if there was an answer. Taking the tract that there was not, he eventually proved that an algebraic solution to the quintic equation was impossible. More important, however, Degen suggested that Abel take up the subject of elliptic integrals, which would become the focus of his work and the source of his fame. Before entering the University of Oslo in 1821, Abel's father died, leaving his son to support his mother and six siblings. Unable to meet his financial needs, he relied on grants from the university, gifts from his math professors and tutoring positions to keep his family afloat. However, his mathematics flourished. After fulfilling the requirements for graduation in one year, he was left on his own to study. In 1823, he published his first important paper on definite integrals, which included the first ever solutions of an integral equation. He also produced another valuable work on the integration of functions. Both of these works would have brought him instant renown and a professorship if anyone would have read them. Unfortunately, the works were written in Norwegian while the leading mathematicians of Europe wrote in French and German. The papers were ignored.

- Takk Norge for Abelprisen
”Mange land kunne ha gjort det, men Norge gjorde det. Abelprisen eksisterer og Norge vil neppe få noen konkurrenter på dette området i fremtiden. Prisen og landet har vunnet matematikernes hjerter.” Det skriver professor F. Thomas Bruss i siste utgave av Newsletter, tidsskriftet til den europeiske matematikkforeningen. Utgangspunktet for artikkelen er mottakelsen som ble holdt i det belgiske vitenskapsakademiet i Brussel i februar i forbindelse med Abelkomiteens møte. Professor Jan Fridthjof Bernt, preses i Det Norske Videnskaps-Akademi, presenterte Abelprisen.
