Steinitz made a number of conjectures which were later proved by Hall.
Steinitz is most famous for work which he published in 1910.
Steinitz also worked on polyhedra and his manuscript on the topic was edited by Rademacher in 1934 after his death.

In a rather curious situation, the solution to this problem, finding conditions on a graph that it be isomorphic to (have the same structure as) the vertex-edge graph of a convex 3-dimensional polyhedron, was completely answered in the early part of the 20th century.
Steinitz's work was published in German and, unfortunately, did not become widely known for quite some time.
Whereas there were almost no mentions of what Steinitz had done between the time when Steinitz published his original theorem and Grünbaum's reformulation, after the reformulation there was a flood of new results.

Fields became a primary focus of investigation in their own right with the joint work of Leopold Kronecker (1823-1891) and Richard Dedekind (1831-1916).
Ernst Steinitz (1871-1928) published an axiomatic definition of fields in 1910:
A field is a commutative ring in which every element but "zero" (the neutral element for addition) has a multiplicative inverse (a reciprocal).

Time: 12:10 PM Abstract: The theme by Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann (1826-1866) relates to the set of possible sums of the various re-orderings of a conditionally convergent series of real numbers - for example, 1 - 1/2 + 1/3 - 1/4 + 1/5 - 1/6 +...
This mid-19th century theme was generalized in the beginning of the 20th century (by Paul Levi and Ernst Steinitz) to the context of series whose summands are elements in a finite dimensional vector space (real or complex).
The lecture will discuss this, and some of its sequels.
