	Witold Hurewicz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Witold Hurewicz (June 29, 1904 - September 6, 1956) was a Polish mathematician.
		Although Hurewicz knew intimately the topology that was being studied in Poland he chose to go to Vienna to continue his studies.
		Hurewicz is best remembered for two remarkable contributions to mathematics, his discovery of the higher homotopy groups in 1935-36, and his discovery of exact sequences in 1941.

	Hurewicz biography
		Witold attended school in a Russian controlled Poland but with World War I beginning before he had begun secondary school, major changes occurred in Poland.
		Hurewicz worked first at the University of North Carolina but during World War II he contributed to the war effort with research on applied mathematics, in particular the work he did on servomechanisms at that time was classified because of its military importance.

		Hurewicz first studied set theory and dimension, and his papers on this topic are especially clear and precise, making them accessible to beginning mathematicians.
		His work in algebraic topology is marked by five fundamental papers which provide an introduction to homotopy groups and the Hurewicz Theorem concerning the relation between homotopy and singular homology.
		Hurewiczs papers should also be consulted as prototypes for mathematical writing.

		Brouwer's classes were also attended by Max Euwe, the later world chess champion, who published a game-theoretical paper on chess from the intuitionistic point of view (Euwe, 1929), and who would much later deliver Brouwer's funeral speech.
		Among Brouwer's assistants were Heyting, Hans Freudenthal, Karl Menger, and Witold Hurewicz, the latter two of whom were not intuitionistically inclined.
		The most influential supporter of Brouwer's intuitionism outside the Netherlands at the time was, for a number of years, Hermann Weyl.
