Otto Staude

Ernst Otto Staude (born March 27, 1857 in Limbach (Saxony) , † April 9, 1928 in Rostock ) was a German mathematician.

Life

Otto Staude was the son of a doctor (medical counselor and senior physician in Zwickau ), went to high school in Zwickau and studied in Leipzig from 1876, where he received his doctorate under Felix Klein in March 1881 . During his studies in 1876 he became a member of the Normannia Leipzig fraternity . In 1883 he completed his habilitation at the University of Breslau , where he was a private lecturer until 1886. After that he was professor of applied mathematics at the University of Dorpat (Tartu) until 1888 and then professor in Rostock. He was a contributor to the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Sciences and was mainly concerned with geometry. Among other things, he discovered in 1888 the thread construction of the ellipsoid (which has long been known for the ellipse), which z. B. Hilbert , Cohn-Vossen Illustrative geometry is shown. In 1887 he became a member of the Leopoldina . In 1894 he discovered the "permanent axes of rotation when a heavy body moves around a fixed point", see Staude rotation .
