From the Preface: “The name of Hermann Weyl is enshrined in the history of mathematics. A thinker of exceptional depth, and a creator of ideas, Weyl possessed an intellect which ranged far and wide over the realm of mathematics, and beyond. His mind was sharp and quick, his vision clear and penetrating. Whatever he touched he adorned. His personality was suffused with humanity and compassion, and a keen aesthetic sensibility. Its fullness radiated charm. He was young at heart to the end. By precept and example, he inspired many mathematicians, and influenced their lives. The force of his ideas has affected the course of science. He ranks among the few universalists of our time. This collection of papers is a tribute to his genius. It is intended as a service to the mathematical community…. These papers will no doubt be a source of inspirations to scholars through the ages.” Volume III comprises 52 articles written between 1926 and 1940.
Hermann Weyl Ordre des livres
Hermann Weyl était un mathématicien, physicien théoricien et philosophe allemand dont le travail a considérablement influencé la physique théorique et les disciplines mathématiques pures. Il s'est imposé comme l'un des mathématiciens les plus influents du XXe siècle, aspirant à une forme d'universalisme. Ses recherches couvraient l'espace, le temps, la matière, la philosophie, la logique, la symétrie et l'histoire des mathématiques. Il a notamment cherché à unifier la relativité générale avec les principes de l'électromagnétisme.
