Polish mathematician, 1882 was born in Warsaw in March. /kloc-entered Warsaw university in 0/900 and became a student in Voronoi. 1903 Scholarships were established in the Department of Mathematical Physics of Warsaw University to reward students for their excellent papers in number theory. Shcherbinski's thesis won the gold medal, which laid the foundation for his first major contribution in mathematics. Because I didn't want to publish it in Russian, it was not published in mathematics and physics until 1907.

After graduating from 1904, Shcherbinski worked as a math and physics teacher in a school in Warsaw. When the school closed because of the strike, Scherbinsky decided to study for a doctorate in Krakow. At Jagelon University in Krakow, he taught mathematics as a teaching assistant of Stanislaw Zareba, and also studied astronomy and philosophy. 1908, Shebinski received his doctorate and was assigned to Lviv University. 19 19 Professor of Warsaw University.

1907, when he came across the theory that a point on a plane can define a coordinate, he first became interested in set theory. He wrote to Tadeusz Banach (then in G? ttingen) and asked him how such a conclusion was possible. He has only one answer-George Cantor. From 65438 to 0909, Shcherbinski began to study set theory, and he maintained an incredible output of research papers and works. From 1908 to 19 14, when he was a teacher at Rove University, he published three books and many research papers. These three books are: irrational number principle (19 10), introduction to set theory (19 12) and number theory (19 12).

19 19, he became a professor at Warsaw university and spent the rest of his life here. 1920, together with Zygmont Yanishevsky and Stefan mazurkiewicz, a former student of Scherbinsky, he founded an important mathematical publication, Fundamentals of Mathematics. Scherbins is mainly responsible for editing the set theory part.

During this period, Shcherbinski mainly studied set theory, but also studied point set topology and free variables of functions. In set theory, his contributions are mainly axiom of choice and continuum hypothesis. And Shcherbinski curve. Shcherbinski continued to cooperate with Luzin to study analysis and projection sets. His research on free variables of function includes function series, function derivative and Bayer classification. Shcherbinski also profoundly influenced the development of Polish mathematics. 192 1 became the provost of Warsaw university. 1928 became vice chairman of Warsaw Science Association, and was elected president of Polish Mathematical Association in the same year.

During World War II, he was imprisoned in Moscow and had close ties with Russian mathematicians such as Luzin. 1945 Return to Warsaw. 1952 was elected as an academician of the polish academy of sciences and served as the vice president of the academy. He is also an academician of foreign academies such as the Netherlands and Czechoslovakia.

Has been engaged in the research of set theory and its application in the field of mathematical names (topology, real variable function theory, etc. ) For a long time, even during the Second World War. Great achievements have also been made in other fields of mathematics, especially in the study of number theory. In 1906, the analysis method of deep use ≦ 1/3 is proved. 19 15 gives "Sierpinski silk pad" and "Sierpinski sponge" in two-dimensional and three-dimensional space; In addition, Sierpinski conjecture is put forward: there are no three rational numbers, and their sum and product are all equal to 1. Two famous fractals are named after him, Scherbinsky Triangle and Scherbinsky Carpet; In addition, the Kjellbing cardinal number and the Shcherbinski question are also named after him.

There are many works by Sherpinsk, including university textbooks, monographs and popular science books, with more than 700 kinds. 1920, Sherpinsk co-founded the magazine Basic Mathematics with mathematicians Z Yanishevski and S Mazu Kevic in Warsaw, and resumed publishing the international magazine Chronicle of Arithmetic in 1957.

Because of his achievements in mathematics, Serpinsk won the Polish People's National Award of 1949 and many other awards. He retired as a professor at Warsaw University in 1960, but continued his postgraduate course in number theory at Warsaw Academy of Sciences until 1967. He continued his editing work, was the responsible editor of Journal of Arithmetic, and was also a member of the editorial departments of Rendi Conti Dei Circolo Matico di Palermo, Composito Matematica and Zentralblatt für Mathematik. 1969101October 2 1 day, he died in Warsaw at the age of 87. Other works include superheterodyne number, number theory, continuity hypothesis, general topology, cardinality and ordinal number, and the basis of number theory.
