Georg Landsberg
Georg Landsberg (born January 30, 1865 in Breslau , † September 14, 1912 in Berlin ) was a German mathematician .
Landsberg, son of Bernhard Landsberg and Philippina Buttermilch, grew up in Breslau, studied in Breslau and Leipzig from 1883 to 1889 and was awarded a doctorate in Breslau in 1890. phil. PhD. He then did his own studies in Berlin until 1893. In 1893 he completed his habilitation at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg and in 1897 became an associate professor at the University of Heidelberg, and in 1904 at the University of Breslau . In the period from 1906 to 1911 he was an associate professor at the Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel , and from January 1911 a full professor of mathematics.
Georg Landsberg's research dealt with algebraic functions in one and two variables, Gauss sums in number theory, theta series, calculus of variations and mechanics. He embedded the Riemann-Roch theorem in the arithmetic theory of algebraic functions, about which he wrote a well-known book with Kurt Hensel .
