Emil Artin

Modern

Emil Artin was an Austrian mathematician of Armenian descent, born on 3 March 1898 and died on 20 December 1962, and one of the leading mathematicians of the twentieth century. He is best known for his work on algebraic number theory, contributing largely to class field theory and to a new construction of L-functions. He also contributed to the pure theories of rings, groups and fields. Along with Emmy Noether, he is considered the founder of modern abstract algebra.
