Rudolf Lipschitz
(Redirected from Lipschitz)
Rudolph Otto Sigismund Lipschitz (May 14, 1832 – October 7, 1903) was a German mathematician and Professor at the University of Bonn from 1864. Peter Gustav Dirichlet was his teacher. He supervised the early work of Felix Klein.
Lipschitz gave his name to the Lipschitz continuity condition; in fact he worked in a broad range of areas. Those included number theory, algebras with involution, mathematical analysis, differential geometry and classical mechanics.
