Władysław Ślebodziński () (February 6, 1884 in Pysznica – January 3, 1972 in Wrocław, Poland) was a Polish mathematician. Władysław Ślebodziński was educated at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków (1903-1908) where he subsequently held a teaching position until 1921. After 1921, he lectured at the State High School of Mechanical Engineering Poznań and in the thirties, he was a visiting lecturer at the Poznań University and Warsaw University until 1939. During the Second World War, he gave underground lectures, leading to his imprisonment. He survived three German concentration camps: Auschwitz (1942 - 1945), where he gave underground university-level lectures as prisoner no. 79053, Gross-Rosen and Nordhausen. In 1945 he became a joint professor at Wrocław University and at the Wrocław University of Technology, and from 1951 he was a professor at the Wrocław University of Technology. With Bronisław Knaster, Edward Marczewski and Hugo Steinhaus, he was a co-founder of the mathematical journal Colloquium Mathematicum. From 1949 until 1960, he was a Professor of the Institute of Mathematics of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Władysław Ślebodziński's main interest was differential geometry. In 1931,〔Ślebodziński W. (1931), ''Sur les équations de Hamilton'', Bull. Acad. Roy. d. Belg. 17 (5) pp. 864-870〕 he introduced the definition of the Lie derivative, although according to J.A. Schouten, 〔Schouten J.A. (1954), ''Ricci-Calculus'', Springer-Verlag, page 105〕 the term ''Lie derivative'' occurred first in a two-part paper by van Dantzig. 〔Dantzig D. van (1932) ''Zur allgemeinen projektiven Differentialgeometrie I, II.'' , Proc. Kon. Akad. Amsterdam 35 pp. 524-534; pp. 535-542〕 He was also doctor ''honoris causa'' at the Wrocław University of Technology (1965), at the Poznań University of Technology (1967), and at the Wrocław University (1970). Prof. Ślebodziński was a member, President (1961-1963) and honorary member of the Polish Mathematical Society. ==See also== * Kraków School of Mathematics 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「Władysław Ślebodziński」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
