Ackermann–Teubner Memorial Award

The Alfred Ackermann–Teubner Memorial Award for the Promotion of Mathematical Sciences recognized work in mathematical analysis. It was established in 1912 by engineer Alfred Ackermann-Teubner and was an endowment of the University of Leipzig.[1]

It was awarded 14 times between 1914 and 1941.[2] Subsequent awards were to be made every other year until a surplus of 60,000 marks was accumulated within the endowment, at which time, the prize was to be awarded annually. The subjects included:[3]

Honorees

The fifteen honorees between 1914 and 1941 are:[4]

Jurists

In 1937, Constantin Carathéodory and Erhard Schmidt were invited to jury the award.[17] Along with Wilhelm Blaschke, Carathéodory was invited again in 1944 by the German Union of Mathematicians.[18]
