Felix Bernstein (24 February 1878, Halle, Germany – 3 December 1956, Zurich, Switzerland), was a German Jewish mathematician known for proving the Schröder–Bernstein theorem central in set theory in 1896,〔〔〔In 1897 (aged 19), according to 〕 and less well known for demonstrating the correct blood group inheritance pattern of multiple alleles at one locus in 1924 through statistical analysis. ==Life== While still in gymnasium in Halle, Bernstein heard the university seminar of Georg Cantor, who was a friend of Bernstein's father Julius.〔 From 1896 to 1900, Bernstein studied in Munich, Halle, Berlin and Göttingen. In the early Weimar Republic, Bernstein temporarily was Göttingen vice-chairman of the German Democratic Party.〔 — Schappacher gives a lot of details from the Göttingen University archive.〕 In 1933,〔In 1934, according to O'Connor, Robertson (MacTutor).〕 after Hitler's rise to power, Bernstein was deprived from his chair, per §6 of the Nazi Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service, often used against politically unpopular persons. He received the message of his dismissal during a research/lecturing journey (started on Dec. 1st, 1932) to the USA, and he stayed there.〔〔〔 In 1948, Bernstein retired from teaching in the USA, and returned to Europe. He mainly lived in Rome and Freiburg, occasionally visiting Göttingen,〔 where he became professor emeritus.〔 He died of cancer in Zurich on 3 December 1956.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Felix Bernstein (mathematician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
