  Zeuthen biography
Zeuthen argued that Pythagoras himself discovered that 2 was irrational when computing the diagonal of a square.
Zeuthen's papers and books, on the other hand, present deep mathematical analyses of the methods found in classical works mostly from antiquity and from the 16th and 17th centuries in an attempt to capture their fundamental ideas.
Zeuthen saw things intuitively: he constantly strove to attain an overall conception that would embrace the details of the subject under investigation and afford a way of seizing their significance.

 Events & News - Zeuthen Lectures
Frederik Ludvig Bang Zeuthen (1888-1959) was a Danish economist, professor at the University of Copenhagen 1930-58.
Zeuthen is known for contributions to several of the areas of economic theory which became active in the 30'ies.
Zeuthen, of course, appreciated that they referred to a paper of his from 1932, Das Prinzip der Knappheit, but he tried to explain that the idea came from one of his students.

[Zeuthen] was in many ways a leading light of the burgeoning intellectual life of his country, and with a selfless and generous disposition he seems happily to deserve Coolidge's epithet of the "ever kindly".

 Gregory K. Zeuthen, Attorney at Law, P.C.
Zeuthen learned that the bus driver had informed his employers in a written statement that he took medication for a psychiatric illness.
Hoselton and Salsbury say they were impressed with the way Zeuthen tracked all of their medical and rehabilitation expenses and made sure that everyone who helped them would be paid.
Zeuthen was able to convince the jury the driver was not telling the truth.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2002.09.34
Zeuthen's main example was, as is obvious from his very title, Apollonius' Conics; thus it was incumbent upon Unguru to offer a study of this ancient work, showing how it could make sense without any algebra assumed as its background.
In a sense, Zeuthen was clearly right, and, as a matter of logic, histories of mathematics can be written where all results are reduced to a canonical form such as that of symbolic algebra.
The fundamental argument made by the historicists is that it is always necessay, in history, to look at the individual characteristics of the object at hand: to transform different objects according to their mathematical equivalences is an act not of history, but of mathematics.

Again Chasles seems to have been wrong in making the ten cases of the four-line Porism begin the book, instead of the intercept-Porism fully enunciated by Pappus, to which the " lemma to the first Porism " relates intelligibly, being a particular case of it.
An'inter esting hypothesis as to the Porisms was put forward by H. G Zeuthen (Die Lehre van den Kegelschnitten imAltertum, 1886, ch.

 The Big freedesktop.org Interview - OSNews.com
David Zeuthen: First of all it might be good to give an overview of the direction HAL ("Hardware Abstraction Layer") is going post the 0.1 release since a few key things have changed.
Upon invocation of the HAL daemon all busses are probed (via a kernel interface) and devices are removed/added as appropriate using the linux-hotplug facilities.
David Zeuthen: With the new architecture most of the HAL parts are OS agnostic; specifically the only Linux-specific parts are less than 2000 lines of C code for handling USB and PCI devices using the kernel 2.6 sysfs interface.

 What is DESY?
One main focus of the Zeuthen particle physics is the participation in the HERA experiments.
Together with international research groups, Zeuthen is operating the AMANDA telescope deep in the ice at the South Pole.
Complementary to the development of simulations and theoretical approaches, the PITZ test facility at Zeuthen is used to study in detail the processes of production, acceleration and formation of the electron bunches, thus optimizing the beam quality and operation parameters - such as operation safety - of the particle sources.

 CERN Courier - Workshop looks through the l - IOP Publishing - article
However, despite its space-time economy, the lattice approach still needs the power of the world's largest supercomputers to perform all of the calculations that are required to solve the complicated equations describing elementary particle interactions.
Organized locally at Zeuthen by K Jansen (chair), F Jegerlehner, G Schierholz, H Simma and R Sommer, the workshop provided ample time to discuss this report.
Similar questions were addressed by G Schierholz of the QCDSF (QCD structure functions) group, located mainly in Zeuthen, who added a touch of colour by looking at structure functions on the lattice.
