Topic: Alfred Clebsch


  
 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Clebsch was a very versatile mathematician, and his influence was felt and still is felt in different areas of our science.
As a final task, Clebsch proposed the construction of a general theory of birational transformations of which the theory of invariants (under projective transformations) should be only the introduction; it is evident that he envisioned the general contours of a``birational algebraic geometry".
This particular role of Clebsch explains the large influence, which he exercised on his contemporaries (this is for instance visible in the obituary, which was published by his pupils in the 7th volume of the Mathematischen Annalen, or in the pages dedicated to Clebsch in the book of Klein).

 Alfred Clebsch Summary
Clebsch also developed a brilliant interpretation of some of Georg Riemann's work on function theory and investigated some aspects of algebraic geometry using approaches that differed from convention, focusing on algebraic interpretations rather than geometrical ones.
Alfred Clebsch (1832–1872) was a German mathematician who made important contributions to algebraic geometry and invariant theory.

Alfred Clebsch, Sr." Alfred immediately began contributing reports and articles to the journal, and was soon serving as Secretary-Treasurer, a position he held for almost 10 years.
His oldest son, Alfred, Jr., was a member of an expert team hired by the Department of Conservation in 1939 to conduct the first wildlife survey of the Hatchie River watershed.
Alfred Clebsch proceeded to become Middle Tennessee's leading expert on mosses, and the Austin Peay State University herbarium still holds his great collection, which also includes later important records of flowering plants.

 Clebsch
Alfred Clebsch entered the school of mathematics at the University of Königsberg in 1850.
Clebsch described the plane representations of various rational surfaces, especially that of the general cubic surface.
Clebsch must also be credited with the first birational invariant of an algebraic surface, the geometric genus that he introduced as the maximal number of double integrals of the first kind existing on it.

 Clebsch-Gordan coefficients - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In more mathematical terms, the CG coefficients are used in representation theory, particularly of compact Lie groups, to perform the explicit direct sum decomposition of the tensor product of two irreducible representations into irreducible representations, in cases where the numbers and types of irreducible components are already known abstractly.
The name derives from the German mathematicians Alfred Clebsch (1833-1872) and Paul Gordan (1837-1912), who encountered an equivalent problem in invariant theory.
In terms of classical mathematics, the CG coefficients, or at least those associated to the group SO(3), may be defined much more directly, by means of formulae for the multiplication of spherical harmonics.

Despite being named for Ferdinand Georg Frobenius, the theorem was first proven by Alfred Clebsch and F.
Deahna was the first to establish the sufficient conditions for the theorem, and Clebsch developed the necessary conditions.
Frobenius is responsible for applying the theorem to Pfaffian systems, thus paving the way for its usage in differential topology.

 Ferdinand von Lindemann Summary
During his time there Lindemann attended lectures by Alfred Clebsch on analytic spatial geometry, algebraic curves, elliptic functions, and the theory of algebraic forms.
In 1872 Klein became a full professor at the University of Erlangen; Lindemann joined him as Klein's second Ph.D. student, receiving his degree in 1873 with a thesis on non-Euclidean geometry and its connection with mechanics.
In addition, after Clebsch's sudden death in 1872 and with Klein's encouragement, Lindemann edited and revised Clebsch's geometry lectures which he published as a textbook in 1876.

Beside the chair for Geometry and the two chairs for mathematics there had been one chair of Mechanic and Synthetic Geometry (Theoretic mechanic from 1902 and Mechanic and Applied Mathematic from 1923).
The first distinguished holder was Alfred Clebsch (from 1858 to 1863); he came from the Königsberger Schoole of Franz Neumann.
He brought from Königsberg many new ideas, among other things the establishment of the mathematic colloquia.
