Hankel, Hermann

Born Feb. 14, 1839, in Halle; died Aug. 29, 1873, in Schramberg. German mathematician.

Working in Erlangen and Tübingen, he derived a series of formulas on the theory of cylindrical functions; his researches on the foundations of arithmetic promoted the development of the theory of quaternions and general hyper-complex number systems. Hankel also wrote works on the history of mathematics in the classical and medieval periods.
