from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bernhard Hornfeck (born October 15, 1929 in Dessau ; † 2006 ) was a German mathematician.

Hornfeck studied mathematics from 1949 at the Free University of Berlin , where he received his doctorate under Hans-Heinrich Ostmann in 1954 ( on the structure of certain prime number theorems ) and was then an assistant. He completed his habilitation in 1958 at the TH Braunschweig, where he became an adjunct professor in 1964 and a full professor at the TU Clausthal in 1969.

He dealt with number theory and wrote a popular algebra textbook.
