The Erdös Number measures the distance of a given mathematician from Erdös on a graph whose edges denote the relationship of coauthorship. My Erdös number is 2, because I've coauthored a paper with John Gimbel , who in turn has coauthored a paper with Paul Erdös (and so has Erdös number 1): Erdös, Paul; Gimbel, John.

My experiences with Paul Erdos - Prof Herbert Fleischner Paul Erdos who `left' (as he would have phrased it) last September, was one of the greatest mathematicians of our time. No doubt. The obituaries have expounded on that, and they also made some remarks on his personality such as his attitude towards owning property (`it's a nuisance'), etc. He was described as an eccentric - which is true if one considers imposed norms as `center'. How can one describe a human being like Erdos to people who have never met this extraordinary man? Was he unreachable? Was he so preoccupied with writing papers (roughly 1500 and more) that he didn't know anything about the non-mathematical world? I think the best way to describe a human being to someone who has never met him, is to describe encounters with such a person, rather than to try to give a general `overall picture' of the person. Well, am I one of the lucky few who have met Erdos? Nonsense! I am one of the lucky many who have met `Uncle Paul'! This is how we would address him during the last so and so many years - "hello, Uncle Paul!", "Excuse me, Uncle Paul,....". He didn't care about being called `Professor Erdos'. This `Uncle Paul' was an expression of our respect for this great man, and of our love for him. I am one of the lucky many...because he was constantly on the move, spending a few weeks here and there, at this or that conference, at this or that university. His homes were with the people he met. He would stay with colleagues whenever possible; only during the last years did he stay in an apartment given to him by the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, whenever he was in native Hungary. But most of the time he was not in Hungary. An anecdote says that many years ago, when he had to fill out a visa application for a trip to the USA, he answered the question: 'Country of Residence' by filling in 'Hungary, USA, Canada, Israel, Australia' and this was not a lie! These were the countries where he could be contacted at the time. Until the 1970's it was his mother who would know at any given time where Erdos could be 'found'; after she died, Ron Graham of Bell Labs (USA) who took over this function (and managed his finances, etc.). 'Uncle Paul' was a true cosmopolitan...

What's the Limit of Human Working Capability by G. Ron Chen (University of Houston) June 1998 "How can this be possible?" This is a frequently-asked question that we hear, and that we also ask when we don't believe something can be done by others if it cannot be done by ourselves. When we learned that athlete Carl Lewis, a University of Houston alumni, won nine gold medals in four consequent Olympic games, which fall 12 years apart, we asked, "How can this be possible?" What about mathematics? died on September 20, 1997, at the age of 83. He published about 1,500 mathematical research papers in his lifetime. You heard me right: about 1,500 total. Let's say he started publishing papers at the age of 23. Then, 1500/60 = 25. That's more than two research papers per month throughout 60 years. You counted it right: That's more than two papers per month

born: March 13, 1913 in Budapest, Hungary died: September 20, 1996 in Warsaw, Poland Most prolific mathematician in history over 1000 publications with more than 250 different coauthors. No home, no job, no bank account, no drivers license, no wife. Always traveling. Always doing mathematics. (John Tierney) I never wanted material possessions. There is an old Greek saying that the wise man has nothing he cannot carry in his hands. If you have something beautiful, you have to look out for it, so I would rather give it away. I always say, 'Private property is a nuisance.' You know, all those rules that may be perfectly correct for normal people, make no sense for prodigies. To say that Bach should pay any attention to how he was socially adjusted is just a bad joke. It is obvious that this is secondary.

He was 83. The cause of death was a heart attack, according to an E-mail message sent out this weekend by Dr. Miki Simonovits, a mathematician at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, who was a close friend. Erdos (pronounced AIR-dosh) was attending a mathematics meeting in Warsaw when he died, Simonovits reported. Never, mathematicians say, has there been an individual like Paul Erdos. He was one of the century's greatest mathematicians, who posed and solved thorny problems in number theory and other areas and founded the field of discrete mathematics, which is the foundation of computer science. He was also one of the most prolific mathematicians in history, with more than 1,500 papers to his name. And, his friends say, he was also one of the most unusual. Erdos, "is on the short list for our century," said Dr. Joel H. Spencer, a mathematician at New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences.
