Heini Halberstam was a Czech-born British mathematician who lived from 1926 to 2014 and worked in the field of analytic number theory. He is remembered in part for the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture, which dates from 1968 and carries his name. He was born on 11 September 1926 and died on 25 January 2014. The source article that grounds this entry is short, so the description is limited to what its lead states: his dates, the fact that he was born in Czech lands and became a British mathematician, his field, and the conjecture that bears his name. Further detail about his career is left to later research.
