Born: August 5, 1802, Finui Island [Died] April 6, 1829. Floland. Norwegian mathematician. One of the pioneers of modern mathematics, he achieved many great research results despite struggling with poverty and poor health. He studied at Christiania University from 1821 to 1823, and in 1823 proved that algebraic equations of degree 5 or higher cannot generally be solved algebraically (→Algebraic solution). From 1825, he continued his research while traveling around Europe, and in 1826, he published the theory of integration of algebraic functions, which became the theoretical basis of Abelian integrals and Abelian functions. However, his work was not properly evaluated, and he returned to Japan in 1827 due to debt and illness. While earning a living as a private tutor, he devoted himself to research on the theory of equations and elliptic functions, and in 1828 he discovered the so-called Abelian equation (an equation in which the Galois group of an algebraic equation is an Abelian group). His achievements were not recognized during his lifetime, but he received the Grand Prize of the French Academy of Sciences in 1830 after his death. In 2002, the Abel Prize was established as an international award named after Abel to recognize outstanding scientific achievements in the field of mathematics. (→ Abel's Theorem) Abel |
[生]1802.8.5. フィヌイ島 [没]1829.4.6. フロランド ノルウェーの数学者。近代数学の先駆者の一人で,貧困や病弱と闘いながら多大な研究成果を残した。1821~23年クリスチャニア大学で学び,1823年,5次以上の代数方程式は一般に代数的には解けないことを証明した(→代数的解法)。1825年からヨーロッパ各地を旅行しながら数学の研究を続け,1826年,アーベル積分,アーベル関数の理論的基礎となった代数関数の積分理論などを発表。しかし正しく評価されず,借金と病気のため 1827年帰国。家庭教師などで生計を立てながら,方程式論,楕円関数論の研究に没頭し,1828年いわゆるアーベルの方程式(代数方程式のガロア群がアーベル群であるような方程式)を発見した。存命中には業績は認められなかったが,死後の 1830年,フランス科学アカデミー大賞を受けた。また 2002年,数学の分野で傑出した科学的業績に対して贈られる国際的な賞としてアーベルの名を冠したアーベル賞が創設された。(→アーベルの定理) アーベル
