Born: 10 September 1903 in Roche, Canton Vaud, Switzerland

Died: 9 October 1990 in Lausanne, Switzerland


Georges de Rham attended the secondary school Collège d'Aigle from 1914 to 1919 and then at the Gymnase classique de Lausanne from 1919 until 1921. Having graduated from secondary school with Latin and Greek as his main subjects, de Rham entered the University of Lausanne in 1921 with the intention of studying chemistry, physics and biology. He began to study mathematics in an attempt to understand questions that arose in the physics he was studying. After five semesters he gave up biology and turned to mathematics. In 1925 he obtained his Licence ès Sciences.

From 1926 he studied in Paris for his doctorate, spending the winter term of 1930/31 at the University of Göttingen. He was awarded his doctorate from Paris in 1931 and became a lecturer at the University of Lausanne. There he was promoted to extraordinary professor in 1936 and to full professor in 1943. He retired and was given an honorary appointment by Lausanne in 1971.

However de Rham also held a position at the University of Geneva. He was appointed there as extraordinary professor in 1936, being promoted to full professor in 1953. He retired from Geneva and was given an honorary position there in 1973.

In addition to these permanent appointments de Rham held a number of visiting professorships. He visited Harvard in 1949/50 and the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton in 1950 and again in 1957/58. He also visited the Tata Institute in Bombay in 1966.

In [4] Raoul Bott describes the context of de Rham's famous theorem:-

In some sense the famous theorem that bears his name dominated his mathematical life, as indeed it dominates so much of the mathematical life of this whole century. When I met de Rham in 1949 at the Institute in Princeton he was lecturing on the Hodge theory in the context of his 'currents'. These are the natural extensions to manifolds of the distributions which had been introduced a few years earlier by Laurent Schwartz and of course it is only in this extended setting that both the de Rham theorem and the Hodge theory become especially complete. The original theorem of de Rham was most probably believed to be true by Poincaré and was certainly conjectured (and even used!) in 1928 by E Cartan. But in 1931 de Rham set out to give a rigorous proof. The technical problems were considerable at the time, as both the general theory of manifolds and the 'singular theory' were in their early formative stages.

The details of the de Rham theorem are given in [4] but as far as this article is concerned it is sufficient to give the 'feel' for the type of theorem as nicely described there:-

The theorem is then a sort of topological form of the particle-wave equivalence of quantum mechanics, and the quest for 'truly' understanding these and analogous dualities has been one of the great motivating forces in the mathematics of the last fifty years.

Of course de Rham produced much in the way of important mathematics in addition to the de Rham theorem. He gave a reducibility theorem for Riemann spaces which is fundamental in the development of Riemannian geometry. He also worked on Reidemeister torsion and his work on this topic was the beginning of rapid developments.

We end with two descriptions of de Rham's character, the first by Bott and the second by Chandrasekhar.

... de Rham had a subtle charm which drew younger people to him immediately. In those early days at Princeton he would easily mingle with the boisterous postdocs, his exquisite manners contrasting amusingly with our rude ways. He was always lean and one could feel the steel in his sinews, but he never boasted of his mountaineering exploits and it was only at secondhand that the daredevil in him became apparent...

The second description:-

Tough as steel in his adherence to principle, resilient, placable, self-less and generous beyond the dictates of fashion, steadfast in friendship, but not at the price of reason, de Rham strides the world of mathematics a happy warrior.

De Rham received many honours. He was President of the International Mathematical Union from 1963 to 1966. He was elected a member of the academies of Lincei, Göttingen, and the Institute of France. He received honorary degrees from the universities of Strasbourg, Genoble, Lyon, and l'École Polytechnique Fédérale Zurich. He received the Prize of the Marcel Benoist Foundation and of the City of Lausanne.

الجبر أحد الفروع الرئيسية في الرياضيات، حيث إن التمكن من الرياضيات يعتمد على الفهم السليم للجبر. ويستخدم المهندسون والعلماء الجبر يومياً، وتعول المشاريع التجارية والصناعية على الجبر لحل الكثير من المعضلات التي تتعرض لها. ونظراً لأهمية الجبر في الحياة العصرية فإنه يدرّس في المدارس والجامعات في جميع أنحاء العالم. ويُعجب الكثير من الدارسين للجبر بقدرته وفائدته الكبيرتين، إذ باستخدام الجبر يمكن للمرء أن يحل كثيرًا من المسائل التي يتعذر حلها باستخدام الحساب فقط.وجاء اسمه من كتاب عالم الرياضيات والفلك والرحالة محمد بن موسى الخورازمي.


يعتبر علم المثلثات Trigonometry علماً عربياً ، فرياضيو العرب فضلوا علم المثلثات عن علم الفلك كأنهما علمين متداخلين ، ونظموه تنظيماً فيه لكثير من الدقة ، وقد كان اليونان يستعملون وتر CORDE ضعف القوسي قياس الزوايا ، فاستعاض رياضيو العرب عن الوتر بالجيب SINUS فأنت هذه الاستعاضة إلى تسهيل كثير من الاعمال الرياضية.

تعتبر المعادلات التفاضلية خير وسيلة لوصف معظم المـسائل الهندسـية والرياضـية والعلمية على حد سواء، إذ يتضح ذلك جليا في وصف عمليات انتقال الحرارة، جريان الموائـع، الحركة الموجية، الدوائر الإلكترونية فضلاً عن استخدامها في مسائل الهياكل الإنشائية والوصف الرياضي للتفاعلات الكيميائية.
ففي في الرياضيات, يطلق اسم المعادلات التفاضلية على المعادلات التي تحوي مشتقات و تفاضلات لبعض الدوال الرياضية و تظهر فيها بشكل متغيرات المعادلة . و يكون الهدف من حل هذه المعادلات هو إيجاد هذه الدوال الرياضية التي تحقق مشتقات هذه المعادلات.
