How this was complished is shown with three examples of careers of famous mathematicians. 1 Introduction This symposium is dedicated to the development of mathematics in the Austro- Hungarian monarchy in the time from 1850 to 1914. At the beginning of this period, in the middle of the 19th century the level of teaching and researching mathematics was very low – with a few exceptions – due to the influence of the jesuits in former centuries, and due to the reclusive period in the first half of the 19th century. But even in this time many efforts were taken to establish a higher education.

Softcover. 17 x 24 cm. 78.00 Euro The origins of dynamical systems trace back to flows and differential equations, and this is a modern text and reference on dynamical systems in which continuous-time dynamics is primary. It addresses needs unmet by modern books on dynamical systems, which largely focus on discrete time. Students have lacked a useful introduction to flows, and researchers have difficulty finding references to cite for core results in the theory of flows. Even when these are known substantial diligence and consulta- tion with experts is often needed to find them. This book presents the theory of flows from the topological, smooth, and measurable points of view. The first part introduces the general topological and ergodic theory of flows, and the second part presents the core theory of hyperbolic flows as well as a range of recent developments.

I would like to mention some important mathematicians such as Euclid, Playfair, Saccheri, Lambert, Bolyai, Lobachevsky, Gauß, Riemann, Klein, Halsted, Beltrami, and Hilbert who were interested in the fundaments of geometry. We know less about the reception of Farkas Bolyai’s work in Hungary’s neighbor countries, in the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. With the help of my colleagues I collected some data on publications and university lectures on the reception of hyperbolic geometry in Vienna, Prague, Beograd and Kolozsvár. 1 Introduction 1.1 The birth of Non-Euclidean geometry Janos Bolyai introduced non-Euclidean geometry, or “new geometry” as he called it, in an appendix of the book “Tentamen ...” by his father Farkas Bolyai.

Tichy Received: 16 June 2009 / Accepted: 30 June 2009 / Published online: 1 September 2009 © Springer-Verlag 2009 Edmund Hlawka, 1916–2009 Am 19. Februar 2009 ist der bedeutende Mathematiker Edmund Hlawka in seiner Wohnung in Wien verstorben. Er war viele Jahrzehnte lang ein weltweit sichtbares Wahrzeichen der österreichischen Mathematik mit hervorragenden Ergebnissen in der Forschung und einem sehr großen Schülerkreis. Am 5. November 1916 in Bruck an der Mur geboren, übersiedelte Hlawka mit seinen Eltern bald nach Wien, wo er die Volksschule und das Realgymnasium im 3. Bezirk absolvierte. Schon als Schüler (angeregt durch seinen Lehrer) beschäftigte er sich intensiv mit Mathematik, und nach der Matura inskribierte er an der Universität R. F. Tichy (B) Institut für Mathematik, TU Graz, Steyrergasse 30, 8010 Graz, Austria e-mail: [email protected] 123 108 R. F. Tichy Wien, wo er Mathematik, Physik und Astronomie studierte. Zu dieser Zeit wirkten dort am Mathematischen Institut berühmte Gelehrte wie z.B. Hahn, Gödel, Furtwängler und Wirtinger. Noch als Student publizierte er seine erste Arbeit in den Monatshef- ten über Laguerresche Polynome, promoviert hat er allerdings 1938 mit einer Arbeit über diophantische Approximation im Komplexen. Weltruhm erlangte er wenige Jahre später durch seine Habilitationsschrift (1944), in der er eine alte Vermutung von Minkowski aus der Geometrie der Zahlen bewiesen hat. Im Jahr 1947 kam ein Ruf an die Technische Hochschule in Graz, und im Jahr 1948 wurde er zum ordent- lichen Professor an der Universität Wien ernannt, wo er zweimal Dekan war und bis 1981 blieb.
