	Charles Hermite - Wikipédia
		Hermite dividiu com Jacobi com ele não apenas suas descobertas em Abelian functions, mas também lhe mandou quatro enormes cartas sobre a teoria dos números, no começo de 1847.
		Estas cartas, a primeira das quais escrita quando Hermite tinha apenas vinte e quatro anos, abriu um novo caminho e bastariam para coloca-lo como um matemático criativo de primeira grandeza.
		Hermite, por seu lado, só acusou o recebimento da generosa resposta recebida, dois anos depois.

	Hermite
		Charles was something of a worry to his parents for he had a defect in his right foot which meant that he moved around only with difficulty.
		Hermite may have still been an undergraduate but it is likely that his ideas from around 1843 helped Liouville to his important 1844 results which include the result now known as Liouville's theorem.
		Hermite used to observe [that biology] may be a most useful study even for mathematicians, as hidden and eventually fruitful analogies may appear between processes in both kinds of studies.

		Charles Hermite, född 24 december 1822 i Dieuze i Lothringen, död 14 januari 1901 i Paris, fransk matematiker.
		Hermite återvände därefter till sin första ungdoms analytiska studier, och den tredje perioden av hans karriär tog sin början.
		Bland avhandlingarna efter 1865 finns dock en av 1873, vilken var av grundläggande betydelse såväl inom den rena analysen som inom algebran och talteorin.

		Hermite was father-in-law to the mathematician Emile Picard, and was likewise related by marriage to another important young mathematician of the period, Paul Appel.
		Hermite's conviction about the superiority of the German system was reinforced once again by his 1877 visit to Göttingen, where he saw with admiration and amazement the professors and the students sitting, drinking beer together and singing.
		Hermite's program was enormously successful, and though it was certainly not his alone, his leadership was central to the development of a mastery of German concepts, displayed all the more clearly in the next generation, when individuals such as Fréchet and Borel were to take real-variable theory in important new directions.

	Hermite Polynomials
		These solutions are called Hermite functions, and each includes the square root of the weight function w(x), so that the wave functions y(x) are orthogonal when integrated from -∞ to +∞, which is required by the theory.
		To prove this, simply express the exponential times the Hermite polynomial of larger order as an nth derivative using the Rodrigues formula, then integrate by parts until the polynomial of smaller order is differentiated to zero.
		Surely the most famous use of Hermite polynomials is in the Schrödinger theory of the harmonic oscillator.

		Charles Hermite was a French mathematician, who was the sixth of the seven children of Ferdinand Hermite and Madeleine Lallemand.
		Hermite joined the Ecole Polytechnique in 1848 as repetiteur and admissions examiner and subsequently took over Duhamel's chair as professor of analysis at the same place.
		In todays mathematics, Hermite is remembered through Hermitean forms, a complex generalization of quadratic forms, Hermitean polynomials, his solution of Lame differential equation, Hermite interpolation procedure, and his solution of fifth-degree equation by elliptic functions.

		Due to oversight, the crucial role that univariate splines play in describing the error in Hermite interpolation has only recently been exploited see, e.g., `Error bounds for Lagrange interpolation' (Shadrin 1994) and `L_p-error bounds for Hermite interpolation and the associated Wirtinger inequalities' (Waldron 1994).
		Because bounding the error in Hermite interpolation in terms of the derivative which kills the interpolating space is of interest in numerical analysis and in the analysis of ordinary differential equations, there is an extensive literature on the subject.

		It is almost impossible to convey to a non-mathematician the spectacular brilliance of such a feat; to give a very inadequate simile, Hermite found the famous 'lost chord' where no mortal had the slightest suspicion that such an elusive thing existed anywhere in time and space.
		Better, it inaugurated a new department of algebra and analysis in which the grand problem is to discover and investigate those functions in terms of which the general equation of the nth degree can be solved explicitly in finite form.
		The best result so far obtained is that of Hermite's pupil, Poincaré (in the 1880s), who created the functions giving the required solution.
