Emil Artin

A detailed Summary of Emil Artin


Emil Artin was an Austro-German mathematician born on March 3, 1898, in Vienna, Austria. He grew up in what is recently known as Czechoslovakia. When Emil was educated there it was a mainly German speaking city.

He did not find himself attracted to mathematics at a very young age, which is very odd since most mathematicians are. He did not show any interest to this subject until about the age of sixteen. He claims that "He didn't have any particular talent for the subject." The school subject that he did show talent for was chemistry.

Artin began his university career at the University of Vienna. After one semester, he was drafted into the Austrian army and he served with this army until the end of the World War I. Then, in January 1919, he entered the University of Leipzig where he continued his mathematics studies.


Artin\'s early work centered on the analytical and arithmetic theory of quadratic number fields. He made major advances in abstract algebra in 1926. In 1927, Artin proved the general law of reciprocity, which included all the previous known laws of reciprocity until the time of Gauss. It has become the main theorem of class field theory. In 1926, Artin developed the theory of real-closed fields. The following year, with the help of the theorem on real-closed fields, he proved the Hilbert problem of definite functions. Also in 1927 he expanded the theory of algebras of associative rings. In his honor, these are called Artinian rings.

After receiving his doctorate he attended the University of Gottingen for one year. He then went to the University of Hamburg as a professor. He lectured on different topics such as mathematics
