Friedrich Wilhelm Schäfke

Friedrich Wilhelm Heinrich Schäfke ( born July 21, 1922 in Berlin, † April 4, 2010 ) was a German mathematician in field analysis.

Life

Friedrich Schäfke studied mathematics and was founded in 1947 by Wilhelm Magnus at the Georg- August-Universität Göttingen rer with the work on the effect of the three pure types of coupling of two free-floating systems for Dr. nat. doctorate. At the Humboldt University of Berlin, he habilitated in 1949 HL Schmid with the font parameter dependence to the initial value problem for ordinary linear differential equations. From 1949 he taught as a professor at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz and in 1955 was appointed extraordinary professor. In 1957 he was appointed a full professor at the University of Saarland. In 1958 he moved to the University of Cologne, where he was from 1961 to 1963 Dean of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. In 1971 he was appointed professor at the Free University of Berlin, the Free University but left because of the " chaotic conditions ".

Friedrich Wilhelm Schäfke 1972 was one of those called the mathematical faculty of the University of Konstanz, which opened its campus on the Gießberg 1972.
