Atle Selberg Atle Selberg (born June 17 ) is a Norwegian mathematician , one of the greatest analytic number theorists of all time. Selberg was born in Langesund , Norway . While he was still at school he was influenced by the work of Srinivasa Aaiyangar Ramanujan . During the second world war he worked in isolation due to the occupation of Norway by the Nazis . After the war his accomplishments in the theory of the Riemann zeta function became known. The celebrated Riemann hypothesis states that all zeros of the complex Riemann zeta function (except the "trivial" zeros at the negative even integers ) lie on the line 1/2 + it t real . This has never been proved. However, G. H. Hardy proved that an infinite number of zeros do exist on this line. Selberg proved that a positive proportion lie on this line. This is a famous theorem He established the importance of Viggo Brun 's sieve methods in number theory, inventing a method that now bears his name, as well as working on the large sieve . Selberg came to the United States and settled at the Institute for Advanced Study in the where he remains today. During the 1950s he developed the

After the war his accomplishments became known, including a proof that positive proportion of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the line 1/2. After the war he turned to sieve theory paper he introduced the Selberg sieve, a method which led to among other important results. Then in Selberg, working with Paul Erdős , gave an elementary proof of the prime number theorem (although there was a dispute between them about to whom this result should primarily be attributed). For all these accomplishments Selberg received the Fields Medal Selberg moved to the United States and settled at the Institute for Advanced Study in the where he remains today.

This had the effect of his parents being extremely protective of Paul. He was taught mathematics by his parents, themselves both teachers of mathematics. While Paul was at school, his father was captured by the Russian army as it attacked the Austro-Hungarian armies. Paul's father spent six years in captivity in Siberia. As soon as he was captured Paul's mother took Paul away from school and the rest of his early education took place at home.

Additional information Abstract: In this paper we consider the Eisenstein series for the Hilbert modular group of a general number field. We compute the Fourier expansion at each cusp explicitly. The Fourier coefficients are given in terms of completed partial Hecke -series, and from their functional equations, we get the functional equation for the Eisenstein vector. That is, we identify the scattering matrix. When we compute the determinant of the scattering matrix in the principal case, the Dedekind -function of the Hilbert class field shows up. A proof in the imaginary quadratic case was given in Efrat and Sarnak, and for totally real fields with class number one a proof was given in Efrat.

Open Questions from the MacTutor History of Mathematics archive , article by J J O'Connor and E F Robertson: Born: 26 March 1913 in Budapest, Hungary Died: 20 Sept 1996 in Warsaw, Poland Paul Erdös came from a Jewish family (the original family name being Engländer) although neither of his parents observed the Jewish religion. Paul's father Lajos and his mother Anna had two daughters, aged three and five, who died of scarlet fever just days before Paul was born. This naturally had the effect making Lajos and Anna extremely protective of Paul. He would be introduced to mathematics by his parents, themselves both teachers of mathematics. Paul was not much over a year old when World War I broke out. Paul's father Lajos was captured by the Russian army as it attacked the Austro-Hungarian troops. He spent six years in captivity in Siberia. As soon as Lajos was captured, with Paul's mother Anna teaching during the day, a German governess was employed to look after Paul. Anna, excessively protective after the loss of her two daughters, kept Paul away from school for much of his early years and a tutor was provided to teach him at home. The situation in Hungary was chaotic at the end of World War I. After a short while as a democratic republic, a communist Béla Kun took over, and Hungary became a left wing Soviet Republic. Anna was at this time made head teacher of her school but when the Communists called for strike action against Kun's regime she continued working, not for political reasons but simply because she did not wish to see children's education suffer.

Last modification: document.write(document.lastModified) emailaddr('webmaster','henrikkragh.dk','Webmaster','hkssmall'); Validate html My interests in math 'proper' Although now a Ph.D. student in the history of mathematics I remain very interested in mathematics proper. My main field of interest lies in discrete mathematics (parts of which are also known as combinatorics ). Main interests in combinatorics include Ramsey theory and links between Ramsey theory and complexity theory. The hexagon on the right represents one of the simplest yet very beautiful results in Ramsey theory, a result which is completely elementary. It says, that no matter how you color the edges of the complete hexagon (all vertices joined by an edge) in two colors (red and blue), a monochromatic triangle (three vertices joined by edges colored the same color) will emerge. The proof indicated in the picture is a simple combinatorial argument. Choose any vertex V with blue degree at least 3 (such a vertex exists...). The edges which join the three vertices adjacent to V cannot be colored blue without producing a blue triangle together with V. Thus, these edges must be red to avoid a blue triangle, thereby producing a red one instead! Of course, this argument can be generalized. For instance, in order to see that every 3-coloring of a complete 17-gon must produce a monochromatic triangle, pick a vertex of 1-degree at least 6. Take six 1-adjacent vertices; if any two of them are joined by a 1-edge, a monochromatic triangle is found. Otherwise, we have a two-coloring of a complete 6-gon, and the result proved above applies.

Selberg trace formula and zeta functions "An important advance was made...in Selberg's paper given at the International Colloquium on Zeta Functions in Bombay in 1956... Selberg discovered that the so called " Poisson summation formula " of classical Fourier analysis had a noncommutative generalization that could be applied to obtain an array of important identities in number theory and the theory of automorphic functions. It is now referred to as the Selberg trace formula G. Mackey, from Unitary Group Representations in Physics, Probability,and Number Theory (Benjamin/Cummings, 1978) p.324 [continued discussion] "It is easy to understand why Selberg studied trace formulas so intensively: they bear a very striking resemblance to the so-called explicit formulas of prime number theory. Briefly stated, one has: This is the rational (simplest) case of A. Weil 's 1952 generalisation of the (number theoretical) explicit formula of Riemann and von Mangoldt . Here h is a complex-valued function of a real variable which satisfies certain conditions, and g is an integral transform of h. Further notes on this formula can be found here . It is very similar in form to a particular case of Selberg's trace formula. where the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function are denoted by D. Hejhal
