  1. Hilbert

    David Hilbert (; German: [ˈdaːvɪt ˈhɪlbɐt]; 23 January 1862 – 14 February 1943) was a German mathematician, one of the most influential mathematicians of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Hilbert discovered and developed a broad range of fundamental ideas in many areas, including invariant theory, the calculus of variations, commutative algebra, algebraic number theory, the foundations of geometry, spectral theory of operators and its application to integral equations, mathematical physics, and the foundations of mathematics (particularly proof theory). Hilbert adopted and defended Georg Cantor's set theory and transfinite numbers. In 1900, he presented a collection of problems that set the course for much of the mathematical research of the 20th century.Hilbert and his students contributed significantly to establishing rigor and developed important tools used in modern mathematical physics. Hilbert is known as one of the founders of proof theory and mathematical logic.

  1. hilbert

    Hilbert is often related to the German mathematician David Hilbert, who significantly contributed to various areas of mathematics in the 19th and 20th centuries. But generally, 'Hilbert' in mathematics is often used in terms like: 1. Hilbert Space: This is a fundamental concept in mathematics and physics, an abstract concept in functional analysis where geometry and topology meet. It's an inner product space—the space elements have lengths and angles—complete in the sense that a series of elements in the space that converges in the norm of the space actually tends to a limit inside the space. 2. Hilbert System: It is a type of system of formal logic where the logical consequence concept is defined in terms of derivability from a set of axioms using only certain inference rules. 3. Hilbert's Problems: This is a list of 23 problems proposed by David Hilbert in 1900 as a research program for the upcoming century. These problems greatly influenced the development of mathematics over the 20th century. 4. Hilbert Scheme: In algebraic geometry, it is a scheme that parametrizes all closed subschemes of a projective scheme, up to projective equivalence, making it a fundamental tool for studying and classifying algebraic varieties. These, among many other mathematical concepts and theorems, bear the name Hilbert in honor of David Hilbert.
