Paul R. Halmos (1916-2006), a major figure in twentieth century mathematics, died on October 2 in Los Gatos, California. Of Hungarian descent, he came to the United States at age 13. He entered the University of Illinois at 16, and received his doctorate when he was 22.
And so here is a collection of excerpts from the writing of Paul Halmos, giving advice, offering opinions, or merely contemplating life as a mathematician—all in his own words. This article first appeared in Notices of the AMS , 54 (2007), 1136–1144.
20. Okt. 2006 · Paul R. Halmos, a mathematician known for exploring the implications of probability theory and helping simplify the expression of mathematical concepts in writing and speech, died on Oct. 2 in...
Paul Halmos died on October 2, 2006, at the age of 90. After his death, many people wrote about his career and praised both his mathematical and his expository skills. Paul would have complained about that: He often said he could smell great mathematicians, and he himself was not one of them. But he was wrong. He was a master of mathematics in ...
