	Encyclopedia: Henri Cartan
		Henri Cartan is the son of Elie Cartan and Marie-Louise Bianconi.
		Cartan published Les transformations analytiques des domaines cerclés les uns dans les autres in 1930 and, since this paper contained generalisations of results proved by Heinrich Behnke, he was invited by Behnke to visit Germany in May 1931 and give a series of lectures at Münster in Westphalen where Behnke taught.
		Cartan's recognition as a first rate mathematician came to him only in his old age; before 1930 Poincaré and Weyl were probably the only prominent mathematicians who correctly assessed his uncommon powers and depth.

	Élie Cartan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cartan was born in Dolomieu in Savoie, and became a student at the École Normale Superieure in Paris in 1888.
		Cartan writes of the influence on him of Riquier’s general PDE theory.
		This is constantly seen in areas such as calculus of variations, Bäcklund transformations and the general theory of differential systems; roughly speaking those parts of differential algebra which feel that the existing, Galois theory-led model of symmetry is too narrow and requires something more analogous to a category of relations.

		Cartan became a student at the École Normale Supérieure in 1888 and obtained his doctorate in 1894.
		This was shown by Cartan in his thesis when he constructed each of the exceptional simple Lie algebras over the complex field.
		This enabled Cartan to define what the general solution of an arbitrary differential system really is but he was not only interested in the general solution for he also studied singular solutions.

		Together with Henri Cartan, Sammy systematized these structures under the rubric of Homological Algebra, once more raising the level of discourse by introducing such notions as derived functors.
		This latest innovation brought its authors into conflict with the "establishment" by putting in question the very notion of definition, raising a fundamental question of the relation between category theory and set theory that has yet to be put definitively to rest.

	Cartan's Magic formula: The Lie derivative (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		In his book on Lecons sur les Invariant Integraux, Cartan introduces a combination of the exterior derivative and the interior product which (so I am told) was coined as the "Lie derivative" by Sledbodzinsky.
		The formula is also attributed to Cartan's son, Henri Cartan.
		Cartan's magic formula acting on a 1-form of Action, A, is thereby an abstract equivalent to the first law of thermodynamic processes:

		Henri Cartan, the son of Elie Cartan, was invited by Behnke to visit Münster for the first time in May 1931.
		The reason of the invitation was that Cartan published a note, where he had proved quite easily a theorem which had been proved earlier by Behnke, but in a particular case.

		However, mathematically it was an exciting time for Thom who was to be strongly influenced by Henri Cartan and the Bourbaki approach to mathematics.
		In 1946 Thom graduated from the École Normale Supérieure and then moved to Strasbourg, taking a CNRS research post, so that he could continue to work with Henri Cartan.
		His doctorate, supervised by Henri Cartan, was awarded in 1951 for a thesis entitled Fibre spaces in spheres and Steenrod squares.

		According to Weil, his friend Cartan was constantly asking him questions about the best way to present a given topic to his class, so much so that Weil eventually nicknamed him ``the grand inquisitor''.
		After months of persistent questioning, in the winter of 1934, Weil finally got the idea to gather friends (and former classmates) to settle their problem by rewriting the treatise for their course.
		Weil's wife was present at the discussion about choosing a name and she became Bourbaki's godmother baptizing him Nicolas.
