Cornelis Simon Meijer was a Dutch mathematician at the University of Groningen, born on 17 August 1904 in Pieterburen and died on 12 April 1974. He introduced the Meijer G-function, a very general function that includes most of the elementary and higher mathematical functions as special cases, and he also introduced generalizations of the Laplace transform that are referred to as Meijer transforms. An obituary, In memoriam C. S. Meijer, written by B. L. J. Braaksma, appeared in the journal Nieuw Archief voor Wiskunde in 1975, and his record is also held by the Mathematics Genealogy Project.
