Rose Pauline Peltesohn (16 May 1913 – 21 March 1998) was an Israeli mathematician of German origin.

Life

Rose Peltesohn was the daughter of the physician Ludwig Peltesohn (1882–1937) and of Cilly Caro.^[1] After graduation (Abitur) in March 1931 she studied mathematics and physics at the University of Berlin and got her Ph.D. in Mathematics at 1936 with Issai Schur^[2] as supervisor (Das Turnierproblem für Spiele zu je dreien, The tournament problem for three person games). Her dissertation was valued opus valde laudabile^(de). Being Jewish she emigrated through Italy to Palestine, arriving 1938.^[3] Between the years 1939–1942 she worked in a bank and later as a lawyer's secretary and translator in Tel Aviv. She married her cousin Gerhard Peltesohn, a lawyer (1909–1965), and they had two daughters, Ruth (born 1940) and Judith (born 1943).

Solution of Heffter's Difference Problems

Peltesohn solved the Difference Problems of Lothar Heffter [de] (1896) in combinatorics in 1939.^[4] A Difference Triple (a, b, c) is defined as three different elements from the set $1,2,\dots ,v-1$ , whose sum ${\bmod {v}}$ equals zero ( $a+b+c=0{\bmod {v}}$ ) or for which one element ${\bmod {v}}$ equals the sum of the other two ( $a+b=c{\bmod {v}}$ ).

First Difference Problem of Heffter: Let $v=6m+1$ . Is there a partition of the set $1,2,\ldots ,3m$ in difference triples?
Second Difference Problem of Heffter: Let $v=6m+3$ . Is there a partition of the set $1,2,\ldots ,2m,2m+2,\ldots ,3m+1$ in difference triples ?

Following Peltesohn, such a partition exists with the exception of the case v = 9.

An example of the partition for $v=13$ is: $(1,3,4)$ (with $1+3=4{\bmod {1}}3$ ) and $(2,5,6)$ (with $2+5+6=13=0{\bmod {1}}3$ ).

The solution of the Difference Problem of Heffter also gives a construction of cyclic Steiner triple systems.
