Hans Hahn Gesammelte Abhandlungen Band 1/Hans Hahn Collected Works Volume 1: Mit einem Geleitwort von Karl Popper/With a Forewo

Like Descartes and Pascal, Hans Hahn (1879-1934) was both an eminent mathematician and a highly influential philosopher. He founded the Vienna Circle and was the teacher of both Kurt Gödel and Karl Popper. His seminal contributions to functional analysis and general topology had a huge impact on the development of modern analysis. Hahn’s passionate interest in the foundations of mathematics, vividly described in Sir Karl Popper’s foreword (which became his last essay) had a decisive influence upon Kurt Gödel. Like Freud, Musil or Schönberg, Hahn became a pivotal figure in the feverish intellectual climate of Vienna between the two wars. Volume 1 The first volume contains Hahn’s path-breaking contributions to functional analysis, the theory of curves, and ordered groups. These papers are commented by Harro Heuser, Hans Sagan, and Laszlo Fuchs. Volume 2 The second volume of Hahn’s Collected Works deals with functional analysis, real analysis and hydrody- namics. The commentaries are written by Wilhelm Frank, Davis Preiss, and Alfred Kluwick. Volume 3 In the third volume, Hahn’s writings on harmonic analysis, measure and integration, complex analysis and philosophy are collected and commented by Jean-Pierre Kahane, Heinz Bauer, Ludger Kaup, and Christian Thiel. This volume also contains excerpts of letters of Hahn and accounts by students and colleagues.
