Klaus Glashoff
Klaus Glashoff (born January 26, 1947 in Wedel ) is a German mathematician and logician.
Glashoff grew up in Hetlingen in the Pinneberg district. After studying natural sciences in Hamburg , Glashoff received his doctorate in mathematics in 1972 with Werner Krabs and Lothar Collatz . He then worked as a research assistant in the mathematics department at the Technical University of Darmstadt . From 1976 to 2001 he was professor for mathematics (especially optimization) at the University of Hamburg and from 1980 to 1982 vice president of this university.
He wrote papers on applied mathematics , especially on optimization and control theory . The book Linear Optimization and Approximation was written together with Sven-Åke Gustafson . For some time now, Klaus Glashoff has been concerned with the history of logic, in particular with Greek and Indian logic as well as with Leibniz 's logical writings. In 2004 he founded the internet-based Sanskrit-English-Sanskrit dictionary. In 2008 Glashoff was Numata Professor ("Formalization of ancient Buddhist Logic") at Ryūkoku University in Kyoto .
From 2012 to 2017 Klaus Glashoff was a member of a research group of the European Research Council at the University of Lugano with the topic "COMET - foundations of COmputational similarity geoMETtry", headed by Michael Bronstein .
Klaus Glashoff has lived in Massagno , Lugano district , Switzerland , since 2005 . For many years he was president of the Swiss association Direct Donation , Massagno (TI), founded in 2005 , which was merged with the non-profit association noon.ch based in Murten (FR) in 2013 . noon.ch supports projects in India that support disadvantaged young people in India in their training.
