Waclaw Sierpinski Waclaw Sierpinski attended school in Warsaw, where his talent for mathematics was quickly spotted by his teachers. This was a period of Russian occupation of Poland and it was a difficult time for the gifted Sierpinski to be educated in Poland. Despite the difficulties, Sierpinski entered the Department of Mathematics and Physics of the University of Warsaw in 1899. When World War I began in 1914, Sierpinski and his family happened to be in Russia. He was interned for a time, and then allowed to go to Moscow. Sierpinski spent the rest of the war years in Moscow working with Luzin. Together they began the study of analytic sets. In 1916, during his time in Moscow, Sierpinski gave the first example of an absolutely normal number. Borel had proved such numbers exit but Sierpinski was the first to give an example. In 1919, he was promoted to professor at Warsaw, and he spent the rest of his life there. In 1920, Sierpinski and his former student Mazurkiewicz founded the important mathematics journal Fundamenta Mathematica . Sierpinski edited the journal, which specialised in papers on set theory.

Levy Dragon Waclaw Sierpinski (1882-1969) (Picture from 1910) Waclaw Sierpinski was born on March 14, 1882, in Warsaw, Poland. His abilities in mathematics were evident from childhood. In 1900 he entered the University of Warsaw, graduating four years later after having been awarded a gold medal for mathematics. From 1908 to 1914 Sierpinski lectured at the University of Lvov, followed by three years at the University of Moscow. After the end of World War I he returned to the University of Warsaw and spent the rest of his career there. By all accounts he was an excellent and simulating teacher. He received hononary doctorates from ten universities, was elected vice-president of the Polish Academy of Sciences, and was awarded the scientific prize of the first degree in 1949. Sierpinski died in Warsaw on May 14, 1969. Sierpinski's most important mathematical work was in the areas of set theory, point set topology, and number theory. He published over 700 papers and 50 books. The Canadian mathematician Cecilia Krieger translated his textbooks Introduction to General Topology (1934) and General Topology (1952) into English.

Intro Leonhard Euler Pierre de Fermat Carl Friedrich Gauss ... Bertrand Russell Mandelbrot and Sierpinski Thales von Milet Game Books and Links Playground ... Mathematicians Benoit B. Mandelbrot and Waclaw Sierpinski Mandelbrot and Sierpinski are two mathematicians who made important contributions in the field of fractals. Waclaw Sierpinski lived from 1882 to 1969. He was one of the most famous Polish mathematicians. Let's look at a discovery which was named after him the Sierpinski Triangle. He found it while reasearching on topology. The Sierpinski Triangle has all the properties of a fractal: Please enable java script and get flash to view this animation A fractal is a geometric shape which is selfsimilar and which has a fractal dimension. Selfsimilar means that when you look at a smaller part of the fractal, it still looks about the same. For example, you can magnify the Sierpinski Triangle as much as you like and it will still look about the same. A fractal dimension means that it is not just one, two, or more dimensional, but something in between. A perfect example of this is the border of the Sierpinski triangle. Take a look at the animation which shows how it is created. To draw a Sierpinski triangle, start out with an equilateral triangle. Then, a triangle is cut out which has it's corners at the midpoint of the original triangle's edges. What you have left are three smaller triangles. Now do the same again with the smaller triangles. The cutting out is called an iteration. An iteration is a step which does a small part of the work and is done again and again to get the final outcome. The shape you end up with, the Sierpinski triangle, has a border which has a length of infinity: every time you repeat the above process you increase the length of the border by one half more than it just did on the last iteration (try it out on paper).
