Ruth Moufang. January 10, 1905 November 26, 1977. Srinivasan, Bhama. Ruth Moufang,1905-1977, The Mathematical Intelligencer, Vol 6, No. 2 (1984), 51-55.

Ruth Moufang
January 10, 1905 - November 26, 1977 Moufang studied mathematics at the University of Frankfurt, passing the teacher's examination in 1929. She received her Ph.D. in 1931 on projective geometry, then spent a fellowship year in Rome. She returned to Germany to lecture at the University of Konigsberg, then at the University of Frankfurt. She went on to complete her habilitation thesis, which entitled her to teach at the university level in Germany, but because she was a woman, Hitler's minister of education would not allowed her to teach the mostly male student population. Moufang therefore became the first German woman with a doctorate to be employed as an industrial mathematician when she went to work for the Krupps Research Institute in the fall of 1937. In 1946 she was finally able to accept a teaching position at the University of Frankfurt where, in 1957, she became the first woman in Germany to be appointed as a full professor. Moufang helped to create a new mathematical specialty in the algebraic analysis of projective planes that drew upon a mixture of geometry and algebra. She studied what are known today as the Moufang plane and Moufang loops. Moufang also published several papers in theoretical physics.

From 1931 to 1937 she studied projective planes introducing Moufang planes and non-associative systems called Moufang loops. Chandler and Magnus describe her contributions to geometry, putting them into context as follows:- A large part of her work is dedicated to the foundations of geometry. Her most outstanding contribution to this field is a result which adds a third important discovery to two others made previously by David Hilbert (1901 and 1930). Reversing a development going from Euclid to Descartes in which geometry is replaced by algebra as a fundamental discipline of mathematics, Hilbert had shown that a subset of his axioms for plane geometry (essentially the incidence axioms) together with the incidence theorem of Desargues permits the introduction of coordinates on a straight line which are elements of a skew field. If Desargues' theorem is replaced by that of Pappus <, the coordinates become elements of a field. Moufang (1933) showed that another incidence theorem, called the theorem of the complete quadrilateral (or of the invariance of the fourth harmonic point), allows one to introduce coordinates which are elements of an alternating division algebra. This and a subsequent paper had the effect of stimulating further research of these algebras and of other nonassociative algebraic structures (Moufang loops). Her work is based both on a powerful geometric intuition and on the development of difficult algebraic techniques. It is supplemented by a sequence of papers on continuum mechanics.
