>one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th century>by all accounts lacked completely in femininity and was essentially a man in a skirtmathsisters.....
>>16452261>>one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th centuryname one thing she's done besides Noether's theorem
I struggle to maintain the fact it is what it is.
>>16452276You're either trolling or haven't done any algebra further than matrix multiplication. Modern algebra as we know it is her and Artin.
>>16452261My biological psychology professor suggested it was prenatal exposure to testosterone. I bet you 9/10 her ring finger : index finger ratio was very mannish
>>16452283name one thing in algebra due to her
>>16452261>greatest female mathematician of all times>doesn't even rank among the top 50
>>16452296Much of the theory of rings. Fundamental to algebraic geometry and algebraic number theory.
>>16452385Name 50 20th century mathematicians whose contributions to mathematics were more substantial than hers. Go ahead, I'll wait.
>>16452287>>16452261what kind of cope is this? there's already only like one or two other great female mathematicians, why are you this fragile?
>>16452261Would. She'd have to keep the bow tie on thoughbeit.
>>16452430She is the only great mathematician
>>16452426Von Neumann, Atiyah, Grothendieck, Cartan, Poincare, Minkowski, Singer, Kac, Ito, Weyl, Weil, Teichmüller, Hilbert, Turing, Gödel, Gentzen, Post, Skolem, Maclane, Eilenberg, Steenrod, Seiberg, Selberg, Witten, Lichnerowicz, Church, Kodaira, Wiles, Serre, Thom, Bott, Hausdorff, Klein, Erdös, Milnor, Smale, Chow, Chern, Chevalley, Dieudonne, Dynkin, Pontryagin, Gromov, Kolmogorov, Kontsevich, Nash, Conway, Deligne, Mumford, ...Oh fuck, you're right. Without using the internet I can only come up with 49 from my memory.
>>16452455Don't forget about artin, the real creator of abstract algebra
>>16452455There are a number of people on your list whose work depends on Noether's work.
>>16452472There are people whose works depend on works, that were found out by chinese, indians, mayas and greeks independently. So on whose works they are more based on?
>>16452398those are trivial contributions
>>16452482>>16452486You are both morons.
>>16452455congratulations on listing 49 mathematicians anon. Too bad you couldn't list 49 more important than Noether, though. We'll get 'em next time.
>>16452489I just tell you that contributions made by her were almost obvious by the time when she lived. If she didn't discover it, it could be discovered independently by other people.
>>16452496This post smells with estrogen
>>16452496Hilbert alone could have been named 50 times. He contributed to virtually every field of mathematics. He even derived the Einstein-Hilbert action independently of Einstein and provided a rigorous mathematical justification for quantum mechanics parallel to leading physicists of his time. We call them Hilbert spaces for a fucking reason.
>>16452455>Maybe if I list enough mathematicians it'll throw them off... Yeah, that should it.No, anon, Atiyah, Minkowski, Singer, Kac, Ito, Weyl, Teichmüller, Turing, Gentzen, Post, Skolem, Seiberg, Selberg, Witten, Lichnerowicz, Church, Kodaira, Wiles, Thom, Bott, Klein, Erdös, Milnor, Smale, Chow, Chern, Chevalley, Dieudonne, Dynkin, Gromov, Kontsevich, Nash, Conway, Deligne, Mumford did not in fact contribute more than Noether did. And the contributions of about ~half of those would not have been possible (in the sense that they came to be) without her shaping of modern algebra.>>16452482The distance between her work and theirs is much smaller than that of theirs and the Greeks, her ideas are direct antecedents.>>16452467Artin worked with her, not by himself.>>16452699No one is diminishing Hilbert's contributions. He could possibly be named the greatest mathematician of the 20th century and the last universalist. But Noether did a lot too.
>>16452497Agreed she's overrated as fuck. The math equivalent to Marie Curie
>>16452261It is very obvious in this thread who has never read a book on commutative algebra.
>>16452908or invariant theory or central simple algebras or algebraic number theory. Pearls before swine, anon.
>>16452857He could do it by himself or other researcher. Artin> noether
>Noether over WeylOkay lets actually bring numbers to this. I'm going to use wikipedia because I'm lazy, and also just use namesakes, though Stigler's law may apply to some degree, lets just assume that the number of "Stigler" namesakes for Noether is equal to Weyl's "Stigler" namesakes. Lets see who actually did more here:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_things_named_after_Emmy_NoetherEmmy Noether:17 contributionshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_things_named_after_Hermann_WeylHermann Weyl:73 contributions not including Weyl notationWeyl wins by 56 contributionsIf we are gonna compare mathematicians, lets do it numerically.
>>16453383Whoops, meant to reply to:>>16452857
>>16453383While I agree that Weyl is debatable, you do realise that most of Weyl's non-physical work has been in group and representation theory, a field that Noether and her cohort (which included Weyl) shaped? It's not about how many things one has named after themselves, it's about the scope, depth, and pervasiveness of the ideas introduced. I won't go so far as to say Weyl's work wouldn't have been possible without Noether's (he was a colleague, not a student), but it's certainly of a piece and on the same continuum.
>>16453398By this retarded logic, Newton and Leibniz are better mathematicians than Cauchy and Weierstraß, which is just laughably wrong.
>>16452261without her, einstein wouldnt have done shit.and Im not putting that in his mouth, he said so.
>>16452296Noether
>>16453383>17Yes? So you are wrong
>>16454749I'm sorry, but are you functionally retarded?
>>16452261If you're trying to say that tomboys are gay you need to leave right fucking now.
>>16453383>judging quantity instead of qualityWhew lad. If you wanna go math mode define a space and its measure first. Just using positive integers isn't cutting it.
>>16452261My mom had shoulder pads too, glad that is out of fashion
>>16455049How do we quantify quality anon?>Just using positive integers isn't cutting it.You're right, I rate Noether a 83-34i+9j+97k out of 100+100i+100j+100k
>essentially a man in a skirtporn has rotted your brain. women dressed conservatively back then. She looks like a completely normal woman. Or maybe you're used to trannies caked in cosmetics and forgot that women can look female without effort
>>16454678>einstein owes relativity to theory to someone named "no ether"can't make this shit up>>16455091did you mom also have a face like alfonse capone, because noether did
>>16452497This. Women are not smart.
>>16452497noether made no further contributions after max noether died. he's probably the one who came up with the theorem proofs and just passed it along to his daughterson who could scam fame and and a cushy academic position, which as a bonus subverts the hard sciences by forcing them to have a "woman" in their ranks.
>>16455765Based on which metric?>>16456013>no etherGod dammit lol
>>16456051You're right. If they were smart, they would be begging for my seed.
>>16452283Maybe that's why modern algebra makes no fucking sense
