Ludwig Otto Hölder was a German mathematician born in Stuttgart in 1859, the youngest of three sons of a professor of the same name and a grandson of another professor, with both of his brothers also becoming professors. He first studied at the Polytechnikum in Stuttgart and in 1877 went to Berlin, where he was a student of Leopold Kronecker, Karl Weierstrass and Ernst Kummer. He took his doctorate at Tübingen in 1882 with a thesis on potential theory. Unable to habilitate at Leipzig, he earned a second doctorate and his habilitation at Göttingen in 1884.
