61. Paul Erdos - 1913-1996 paul ERDÖS 1913-1996. Melvin Henriksen. Many learned of the death of paulErdös by reading on E-mail the following message from Miki Simonovits. http://at.yorku.ca/t/o/p/c/13.htm

Topology Atlas Document # topc-13 Melvin Henriksen Article from Volume 1, #3 of TopCom Plain text (ASCII) file is available for download. As far as I know, he had a heart attack, rather serious, very early in the morning, in this Warsaw hotel, where he stayed while visiting the Minisemester for Combinatorics, (for two weeks), gave two lectures. Vera Sos and Andras Sarkozy are leaving Budapest for Warsaw right now, Saturday morning, and Paul's original plans were to fly from Warsaw to Vilnius (for the Kubilius Conference) with Vera and Andras together, on Sunday. The doctor informed us that he had two heart attacks and the second one killed him. (Perhaps even the first one was serious enough to prevent him from communicating to his surrounding. This may explain e.g. that he could not reach the mathematicians. We learned about his heart attacks only after his death.) It came as a shock to me because when I last saw him at the Hungarian Academy of Science in Budapest on September 4, he was going over a paper with a young Hungarian mathematician and seemed to be working vigorously at what he loved to do. web site.

Paul Erdos, a Math Wayfarer at Field's Pinnacle, Dies at 83 by GINA KOLATA New York Times - September 24, 1996 Dr. Paul Erdos, a legendary mathematician who was so devoted to his subject that he lived as a mathematical pilgrim with no home and no job, died Friday in Warsaw, Poland. He was 83. The cause of death was a heart attack, according to an e-mail message sent out this weekend by Dr. Miki Simonovits, a mathematician at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, who was a close friend. Erdos (pronounced AIR-dosh) was attending a mathematics meeting in Warsaw when he died, Simonovits reported. Never, mathematicians say, has there been an individual like Paul Erdos. He was one of the century's greatest mathematicians, who posed and solved thorny problems in number theory and other areas and founded the field of discrete mathematics, which is the foundation of computer science. He was also one of the most prolific mathematicians in history, with more than 1,500 papers to his name. And, his friends say, he was also one of the most unusual. Erdos, "is on the short list for our century," said Dr. Joel H. Spencer, a mathematician at New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences.

The Man Who Loved Only Numbers: The Story of Paul Erdos and the Search for Mathematical Truth By Paul Hoffman My Brain is Open: The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos By Bruce Schechter Most mathematicians are not "interesting" enough to be the subjects of biographies. Paul Erdos is an exception. I've read about a a few physicists and inventors, but this was my first time reading about the life of a mathematician. Paul Erdos authored or co-authored over 1,500 papers with 500 colleagues during his brilliant mathematical career. He literally lived his long life as an itinerant mathematician, depending on his wide base of friends and colleagues for support. These two biographies are each enjoyable accounts of the Paul Erdos' life. There are a few differences between them. The Man Who Loved Only Numbers is less tightly focused and includes information about other figures in Erdos' life and mathematical world. It included anecdotes about such figures as Kurt Godel and Srinivasa Ramanujar (among others), of whom I had heard but about whom I knew very little. It also includes a great many details about Erdos' memorable spirit. As passionate as Erdos was about mathematics, he loved a great deal more than numbers alone. Hoffman impressed me by showing how much Erdos cared about his fellow humans, especially children and the destitute. On the other hand

In a few pages the book may skip between Pythagoras, some incident in Budapest, a precocious proof by the young Carl Friedrich Gauss (a great 19th century mathematician) and an anecdote involving the wife of one of Erdos' countless hosts. Booknews, Inc. A biography of the most prolific mathematician who ever lived, the Hungarian-born Paul Erdos (1913-1996). The author covers the author's early years as a prodigy, his maturation as a mathematician, his political troubles both as a Jew in Europe before WWII and a freethinker in the US during the McCarthy era, his collaborations with countless other mathematicians, and his famous eccentricity. Includes many mathematical puzzles, but not so many that it is not accessible to non-mathematicians. From Kirkus Reviews , July 15, 1998
