Lothar Gerritzen
Lothar Georg Gerritzen (born August 25, 1941 in Nuremberg ) is a German mathematician who deals with p-adic function theory, algebra and algebraic geometry. He is a professor at the Ruhr University in Bochum .
Gerritzen received his doctorate in 1966 under Reinhold Remmert at the University of Göttingen (on the non-Archimedean function theory on imperfect basic bodies). In 1970 he completed his habilitation and was then a private lecturer and professor at the University of Frankfurt before becoming a full professor in Bochum in 1976.
Gerritzen researches non-commutative algebraic geometry, Hopf algebras , operads , algorithmic algebra (complexity of Gröbner bases) and algebraic methods in cryptography , p-adic function theory and module theory of completely degenerate curves.
In 1967/68 he was at the Institute for Advanced Study .
Frank Herrlich (Karlsruhe) is one of his doctoral students .
He is the founder of the Zwanzigeins association .
