http://www.stetson.edu/~efriedma/periodictable/html/H.html

Extractions: Hilbert's first work was on invariant theory, and in 1888 he proved his famous Basis Theorem. Hilbert submitted a paper on the subject, and despite objections from Gordan, the world expert on invariant theory, it was accepted. He expanded on his methods in a later paper, and Klein, after reading the manuscript, wrote "I do not doubt that this is the most important work on general algebra that the [journal] has ever published." From 1893 to 1897, Hilbert worked on a book on algebraic number theory. This was a brilliant synthesis of the work of Kummer, Kronecker and Dedekind but contains a wealth of Hilbert's own ideas. The beginnings of Class field theory are all contained in this work. Hilbert's work in geometry had the greatest influence in that area since Euclid. A systematic study of the axioms of Euclidean geometry led Hilbert to propose 21 such axioms and he analysed their significance. He published a paper in 1899 putting geometry in a formal axiomatic setting. The book continued to appear in new editions and was a major influence in promoting the axiomatic approach to mathematics during the twentieth century. Hilbert gave a famous speech, "The Problems of Mathematics", to the Second International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris. In it he presented 23 unsolved problems he felt were fundamental to mathematics. Hilbert's problems included the continuum hypothesis, the well ordering of the reals, Goldbach's conjecture, the transcendence of powers of algebraic numbers, the Riemann hypothesis, the extension of Dirichlet's principle and many more. Many of the problems were solved during the twentieth century, and each time one of the problems was solved it was a major event for mathematics.

David Hilbert(18621943) was born on January 23, 1862, in Königsberg, Germany.Hilbert's inclination toward mathematics is believed to be due to his mother.
http://www.math.ukans.edu/~engheta/bio/hilbert.html

Extractions: David Hilbert Heinrich Weber Richard Dedekind's Weber left, Lindeman was appointed as his successor. Lindeman's influence caused Hilbert to become interested in the theory of invariants. Hilbert proved the famous Hilbert basis theorem - that is, if every ideal in a ring R has a finite basis, then so does every ideal in the polynomial ring R x ]. Hilbert's results connected the theory of invariants to the fields of algebraic functions and algebraic varieties. He also proved the Hilbert irreducibility theorem. Hilbert also worked on algebraic number theory. This work centers on the reciprocity law, developed from Gauss's law of quadratic residues. In 1893, Hilbert, along with Minkowski, was assigned to prepare a report on number theory. Minkowski soon withdrew from this project. Hilbert summarized the known results in Zahlbericht . For half a century, it was a bible for anyone interested in learning algebraic number theory. In 1899, Hilbert published Grundlagen der Geometrie , which went into its ninth edition in 1962. After 63 years, the book was still being read, although it was slowly modernized. In 1900, while addressing the International Congress of Mathematicians on mathematical problems, Hilbert introduced 23 problems. These have since stimulated mathematical investigations.

Extractions: Hilbert made deep and fundamental contributions to algebra, number theory, and geometry. In 1900 he was invited to give an address at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris. His address, entitled Mathematical Problems , listed 23 important problems he felt deserved the attention of mathematicians of the coming century. Hilbert's Tenth Problem asked if there was a "process" by which "it can be deterined by a finite number of operations whether [a Diophantine] equation can be solved in ... integers". (A Diophantine equation is a multivariate polynomial equation.) In his later career, Hilbert became more interested in the foundations of mathematics and the possibility of resolving, by completely mechanical means, any well-posed mathematical problem. In 1928 he asked: Is mathematics complete , in the sense that every statement can either be proved or disproved? Is mathematics consistent , in the sense that one can never arrive at a contradiction such as = 1 by a sequence of valid steps of reasoning? Is mathematics decidable , in the sense that there exists a mechanical procedure that will always determine the truth or falsity of a statement?

Mathematical Problems Of David Hilbert

http://aleph0.clarku.edu/~djoyce/hilbert/

Extractions: Hilbert's address of 1900 to the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris is perhaps the most influential speech ever given to mathematicians, given by a mathematician, or given about mathematics. In it, Hilbert outlined 23 major mathematical problems to be studied in the coming century. Some are broad, such as the axiomatization of physics (problem 6) and might never be considered completed. Others, such as problem 3, were much more specific and solved quickly. Some were resolved contrary to Hilbert's expectations, as the continuum hypothesis (problem 1). Hilbert's address was more than a collection of problems. It outlined his philosophy of mathematics and proposed problems important to his philosophy. Although almost a century old, Hilbert's address is still important and should be read (at least in part) by anyone interested in pursuing research in mathematics. In 1974 a symposium was held at Northern Illinois University on the Mathematical developments arising from Hilbert problems.

Extractions: David Hilbert attended the gymnasium Lindemann for his doctorate which he received in 1885 for a thesis entitled One of Hilbert's friends there was Minkowski In 1884 Hurwitz In 1892 Schwarz Weierstrass 's chair and Klein Klein failed to persuade his colleagues and Heinrich Weber was appointed to the chair. Klein Fuchs Minkowski Hilbert's first work was on invariant theory and, in 1888, he proved his famous Basis Theorem. Twenty years earlier Gordan had proved the finite basis theorem for binary forms using a highly computational approach. Attempts to generalise Gordan 's work to systems with more than two variables failed since the computational difficulties were too great. Hilbert himself tried at first to follow Gordan 's approach but soon realised that a new line of attack was necessary. He discovered a completely new approach which proved the finite basis theorem for any number of variables but in an entirely abstract way. Although he proved that a finite basis existed his methods did not construct such a basis. Hilbert submitted a paper proving the finite basis theorem to Mathematische Annalen.

Extractions: Who of us would not be glad to lift the veil behind which the future lies hidden; to cast a glance at the next advances of our science and at the secrets of its development during future centuries? What particular goals will there be toward which the leading mathematical spirits of coming generations will strive? What new methods and new facts in the wide and rich field of mathematical thought will the new centuries disclose? History teaches the continuity of the development of science. We know that every age has its own problems, which the following age either solves or casts aside as profitless and replaces by new ones. If we would obtain an idea of the probable development of mathematical knowledge in the immediate future, we must let the unsettled questions pass before our minds and look over the problems which the science of today sets and whose solution we expect from the future. To such a review of problems the present day, lying at the meeting of the centuries, seems to me well adapted. For the close of a great epoch not only invites us to look back into the past but also directs our thoughts to the unknown future. The deep significance of certain problems for the advance of mathematical science in general and the important role which they play in the work of the individual investigator are not to be denied. As long as a branch of science offers an abundance of problems, so long is it alive; a lack of problems foreshadows extinction or the cessation of independent development. Just as every human undertaking pursues certain objects, so also mathematical research requires its problems. It is by the solution of problems that the investigator tests the temper of his steel; he finds new methods and new outlooks, and gains a wider and freer horizon.

The History Of Algebra In The Nineteenth And Twentieth Centuries
Topics include the contribution of david hilbert, the origins of Emmy Noether's work, the spread and development of this field in Europe and the US, as well as modern algebra in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Will take place at Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) on 2125 April 2003 in Berkeley, CA, USA.
http://www.msri.org/calendar/workshops/WorkshopInfo/245/show_workshop

Extractions: Historians of mathematics have come to focus seriously on the history of modern algebra only within the last twenty-five years. That history originally tended to be done from the very technical point of view of the history of ideas, an approach typified in, for example, Morris Kline's massive Mathematical Thought from Ancient to Modern Times (1972), although Kline tended to give algebra in general rather short shrift in that work. In 1985, B. L. van der Waerden provided a more synthetic and focused account in A History of Algebra from al-Khwarismi to Emmy Noether, but while this work incorporated some biographical and broader historical analysis, it presented the development of algebra as a series of rather disjointed mathematical vignettes instead of in terms of a coherent historical and mathematical analysis. To date, no work has been written on the history of algebra in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries that ranges widely over the complex and interacting factors that led to modern algebra.
The Epsilon Calculus
Discussion of david hilbert's development of this type of logical formalism with emphasis on prooftheoretic methods.
http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/epsilon-calculus/

Extractions: MAY The epsilon calculus is a logical formalism developed by David Hilbert in the service of his program in the foundations of mathematics. The epsilon operator is a term-forming operator which replaces quantifiers in ordinary predicate logic. Specifically, in the calculus, a term x A denotes some x satisfying A x ), if there is one. In Hilbert's Program, the epsilon terms play the role of ideal elements; the aim of Hilbert's finitistic consistency proofs is to give a procedure which removes such terms from a formal proof. The procedures by which this is to be carried out are based on Hilbert's epsilon substitution method. The epsilon calculus, however, has applications in other contexts as well. The first general application of the epsilon calculus was in Hilbert's epsilon theorems, which in turn provide the basis for the first correct proof of Herbrand's theorem. More recently, variants of the epsilon operator have been applied in linguistics and linguistic philosophy to deal with anaphoric pronouns.

http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/biography/Hilbert.html

Extractions: German mathematician who set forth the first rigorous set of geometrical axioms in Foundations of Geometry (1899). He also proved his system to be self-consistent. He invented a simple space-filling curve known as the hilbert curve and demonstrated the "basis theorem" in invariant theory. His many contributions span number theory (Zahlbericht), mathematical logic differential equations and the three-body problem He also proved Waring's theorem At the Paris International Congress of 1900, Hilbert proposed 23 outstanding problems in mathematics to whose solutions he thought twentieth century mathematicians should devote themselves. These problems have come to be known as Hilbert's problems and a number still remain unsolved today. After Hilbert was told that a student in his class had dropped mathematics in order to become a poet, he is reported to have said "Goodhe did not have enough imagination to become a mathematician" (Hoffman 1998, p. 95).

Leonard Nelson
Biography from the Friesian School site. Includes some excerpts pertaining to the relationship between david hilbert and Nelson.
http://www.friesian.com/nelson.htm

Extractions: Leonard Nelson, described by Karl Popper as an "outstanding personality," produced a great quantity of work (collected in the nine volumes of the Gesammelte Schriften ) in a tragically short life. The quantity and the tragedy may have both happened because Nelson was an insomniac who worked day and night and exhausted himself into a fatal case of pneumonia. Nelson's greatest contributions to philosophy were his rediscovery of Jakob Fries , his exposition, systematization, and expansion of Friesian philosophy, the use and theory of Socratic Method in his pedagogy, and his engagement with the mathematical issues of Kantian philosophy in relation to his personal and professional involvement with one of the great mathematicians of the Twentieth Century, David Hilbert (1862-1943) . Hilbert's concern with the axiomatization of geometry and all of mathematics strongly paralleled Nelson's work in the Friesian theories of truth and justification . Nelson recognized the important parallel between Hilbert's conception of meta-mathematics and Fries' distinction between critique and metaphysics Hilbert is now often overshadowed by later mathematicians; and Hilbert's desire to complete mathematics by reducing it to a finished and closed axiomatic system is now often only mentioned in the context that this was shown to be impossible by
