    Extractions: Died: Jan. 6, 1918, Halle, Ger. German mathematician who founded set theory and introduced the mathematically meaningful concept of transfinite numbers, indefinitely large but distinct from one another. Early life and training Cantor's parents were Danish. His artistic mother, a Roman Catholic, came from a family of musicians, and his father, a Protestant, was a prosperous merchant. When his father became ill in 1856, the family moved to Frankfurt. Cantor's mathematical talents emerged prior to his 15th birthday while studying in private schools and at gymnasien at Darmstadt first and then at Wiesbaden; eventually, he overcame the objections of his father, who wanted him to become an engineer. After briefly attending the University of ZŸrich, Cantor in 1863 transferred to the University of Berlin to specialize in physics, philosophy, and mathematics. There he was taught by the mathematicians Karl Theodor Weierstrass, whose specialization of analysis probably had the greatest influence on him; Ernst Eduard Kummer, in higher arithmetic; and Leopold Kronecker, a specialist on the theory of numbers who later opposed him. Following one semester at the University of Gšttingen in 1866, Cantor wrote his doctoral thesis in 1867, In re mathematica ars propendi pluris facienda est quam solvendi ("In mathematics the art of asking questions is more valuable than solving problems"), on a question that Carl Friedrich Gauss (q.v.) had left unsettled in his

In 1856 his family moved to Germany for a warmer climate, due to his father's poor health Cantor's father wanted him to be an Engineer, but Georg was interested in Mathematics In 1873 Cantor proved the rational numbers are countable,they can be put into a 1-1 correspondence with the natural numbers. He showed that the algebraic numbers, the numbers which are roots of polynomial equations with integer coefficients, were countable. Cantor is famous for proving that the real numbers are not countable. A transcendental number is an irrational number that is not a root of any polynomial equation having integer coefficients. Cantor showed that almost all numbers are transcendental by proving the real numbers were not countable while proving that the algebraic numbers were countable.

Georg Cantor was a German mathematician whose primary contribution to both mathematics and logic lies in the sphere of set theory. Indeed, Cantor is the one person who is perhaps most responsible for the development of modern set theory, allowing it to play such a signficant role in mathematics and logic today. Cantor also discovered some of the first paradoxes in set theory. One, often called "Cantor's paradox," is that every set actually has more subsets than it does members . The consequence of this is theat there can be no "set of all sets." Quotes

    Extractions: A Russian-born German mathematician who founded set theory and introduced the concept of transfinite numbers . His shocking and counterintuitive ideas about infinity drew widespread criticism before being accepted as a cornerstone of modern mathematical theory. Cantor was 11 when his family moved from St. Petersburg to Germany. Despite attempts to push him into the more lucrative field of engineering, he eventually won his father’s approval to study math at the Polytechnic of Zurich. The following year, 1863, his father died and Cantor switched to the University of Berlin where he studied under some of the greats of the day, including Karl Weierstrass and Leopold Kronecker function is continuous (in other words, its graph is smooth) throughout an interval, it can be represented by a unique trigonometric series. This work, suggested to him by a colleague, Heinrich Heine, was crucial because it led Cantor to think about the relations between points, represented by

Using this position, he went to every village in the entire country and from this direct observation, he came up with an analysis and strategy for the national liberation movement. With others, he founded the PAIGC in 1956, and in 1963 their full-blown military campaign to overthrown Portuguese colonialism began. Within two years they had extensive liberated zones where effectively they were in power.

    Extractions: German mathematician who followed his work on number theory and trigonometry by considering the foundations of mathematics. He defined real numbers and produced a treatment of irrational numbers using a series of transfinite numbers. Cantor's set theory has been used in the development of topology and real function theory. Investigating sets of the points of convergence of the Fourier series (which enables functions to be represented by trigonometric series), Cantor derived the theory of sets that is the basis of modern mathematical analysis. His work contains many definitions and theorems in topology. For the theory of sets, he had to arrive at a definition of infinity, and also therefore consider the transfinite; for this he used the ancient term 'continuum'. He showed that within the infinite there are countable sets and there are sets having the power of a continuum, and proved that for every set there is another set of a higher power.
