Archive of Mathematics and Physics

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Archive of Mathematics and Physics (also: Grunert's Archive ) was a scientific journal founded in 1841 by Johann August Grunert , which was published until 1920.

In the subtitle ( Archive of Mathematics and Physics: with special consideration of the needs of teachers in higher education institutions ) it was aimed particularly at high school teachers. It was published by CA Koch in Greifswald , and later by BG Teubner (Leipzig / Berlin).

Grunert was the editor until his death in 1872, then Reinhold Hoppe , and when he died in 1900 Emil Lampe , Wilhelm Franz Meyer and Eugen Jahnke took over .

There was a section with problems and solutions. At the turn of the century, the journal also served as an exchange organ for work on the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Sciences (the editor Meyer was one of the driving forces behind this project).

In 1901 David Hilbert published his lecture at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1900 on Hilbert's problems . The international reputation had grown so much that well-known French mathematicians such as Charles Hermite and Gaston Darboux published in the journal.
