  Fredholm biography
Ivar, who was born in the Klara area of Stockholm City, proved a brilliant school pupil at the Beskowska School in Stockholm and he was awarded his baccalaureate on 16 May 1885.
Fredholm's work on integral equations was met with great interest and boosted the morale and self-respect of Swedish mathematicians who so far had been working under the shadow of the continental cultural empires Germany and France.
Their eldest son, Bengt Ivar Fredholm, was born in 1912 and he became a major in the Swedish army.

 Erik Ivar Fredholm Summary
Fredholm was born on April 7, 1866, in Stockholm, Sweden.
Fredholm received his doctorate from Uppsala in 1898, although he conducted the bulk of his studies under Mittag-Leffler at the University of Stockholm.
Fredholm conducted his doctoral thesis on partial differential equations, and his work became significant to the study of deformation of anisotropic media, such as crystals.

  Fredholm, Erik Ivar - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Fredholm, Erik Ivar
Fredholm founded much of his theory on work carried out by US astronomer George Hill (1838–1914), who used linear equations involving determinants of an infinite number of rows and columns.
In Fredholm's paper ‘Sur une nouvelle méthode pour la résolution du problème de Dirichlet’ (1900), he first developed the essential part of the theory of what is now known as Fredholm's integral equation;; further, he went on to define and solve the Fredholm equation of the second type, involving a definite integral.
Fredholm was born in Stockholm and studied at the Polytechnic Institute there, and at the University of Uppsala.

 Fredholm, Erik Ivar (1866-1927)
This became a major research topic in the first quarter of the twentieth century and underpinned important theoretical developments in physics; David Hilbert, in particular, extended Fredholm's work to arrive at the concept of Hilbert space.
Fredholm also devoted time to actuarial science and made a particularly important contribution by proposing an elegant formula to determine the surrender value of a life insurance policy.
He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Uppsala but then spent the rest of his academic career at the University of Stockholm.

 Fredholm operator - Wikipedia
In mathematics, a Fredholm operator is a bounded linear operator between two Banach spaces whose range is closed and whose kernel and cokernel are finite-dimensional.
The abstract structure of Fredholm's theory (if not the computational aspects) can now be derived in terms of the spectral theory of Fredholm operators on Hilbert space.
The use of Fredholm operators in partial differential equations is an abstract form of the parametrix method.

 History of Operator Theory
The full idea of a function spaces is of the Twentieth Century, indeed it is the central notion of Twentieth Century analysis, and was influenced by attempts to understand the Dirichlet problem, Fourier series and transforms, and the work of Vito Volterra and Ivar Fredholm on integral equations.
A major event was the appearance of Fredholm's theory of integral equations, which arose as a new approach to the Dirichlet problem.

It was only around the turn of this century when Vito Volterra (in 1896) and, above all, Ivar Fredholm (between 1900 and 1903) created the foundations of the modern theory of such equations.
In general, the problem is much more complicated (since its setting is now that of an infinite-dimensional space, in contrast to linear algebra), and Fredholm's work represents in many ways the origin of (linear) functional analysis (see Applied Mathematics 4100).
Many mathematical modelling processes lead to linear (and, often, nonlinear) integral equations, and it is thus not surprising that this field of pure and applied mathematics is still very much alive and growing.

 CMS Winter 2004 Meeting
In 1900 Ivar Fredholm presented a method for the solution of integral equations.
The method was extremely useful in showing the existence of solutions for certain types of boundary-value problems in partial differential equations, and attracted a good deal of international attention.
In this paper we examine these two threads in the early reception of Fredholm's work, which persisted as separate though interacting traditions.
