Alfred Tauber

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alfred Tauber (November 5, 1866 – circa 1942) was a mathematician who was born in Bratislava, and died in Theresienstadt concentration camp. In 1897 he proved a corrected converse of Abel's theorem. G.H. Hardy and J.E. Littlewood coined the term Tauberian to describe converse theorems like that proved by Tauber.
