Jakob Philipp Kulik

Jakob Philipp Kulik ( born April 20, 1793 in Lemberg, Galicia, † February 28, 1863 in Prague) was an Austrian mathematician who is best known for his extensive factor boards.

Life

Jakob Philipp Kulik studied philosophy, then Jura and finally mathematics. In 1814 he applied for the post of professor of elementary mathematics in Olomouc. In 1816 he became professor of physics at the Lyceum in Graz. In 1822 he received his doctorate. In 1826 he became professor of mathematics at the University of Prague, where he lived until his death.

Kulik's Mathematical boards

1825 called Kulik a factor table of numbers to 30 million, which no longer seems to exist today, however. It is also unclear whether this board has actually been completed.

From about 1825 to 1863 Kulik made ​​a factor table of the numbers up to 100 330 200 (except divisible by 2, 3 or 5 numbers ). This panel had essentially the same finish as the panel to 30 million, and it is therefore likely that the work on this Magnus canon divisorum from the mid- 1820s took up to Kulik's death in 1863, when these panels were still unfinished. The manuscripts fill eight volumes, totaling 4212 pages and - except for the lost second band - kept in the archives of the Austrian Academy of Sciences.
