As a great mathematician, Mr Xiong Qinglai recalled his life before he died. In this life, he devoted himself to mathematics. He not only has high attainments, but also trained a group of mathematicians such as Hua. The film recorded his life.
Xiong Qinglai (1 893- 1969), a native of Xizai Village, Peng Pu Town, was born in Dizhi. Father Xiong was a librarian in the late Qing Dynasty. He was a master of Confucianism in Qiaojia and Zhaozhou County. Chiang Rai studied hard when he was a child, but his uncles thought that he knew nothing and his father loved him very much.
In the second year of the Republic of China (1 9 13), he was admitted as a publicly-funded international student and studied hard in four universities in Belgium and France. In his letter to his father, he said, "Men in theaters, hotels and dance halls don't like going in. An inch of time and an inch of gold are hard to buy. It is important for men to study hard. " ?
1920 graduated from the university of Marseille, France, with a certificate in advanced mathematics, advanced analytical mechanics, astronomy and physics, and a master's degree in science. 1921-1year, successively served as a professor in Yunnan Jiazhong Industrial School, Yunnan Road Administration School, Nanjing Southeast University, Shaanxi Northwest University and Beiping Tsinghua University.
He set up a research department in Tsinghua Mathematics Department, which is the first mathematics research institution in China. China, Qian Sanqiang, Zhao Jiuzhang and so on. The mathematician he carefully taught has become a celebrity in the field of mathematics at home and abroad. He suffered from pleurisy because of overwork; Still working hard and teaching people tirelessly. ?
1932 Represented China in the International Mathematical Congress held in Zurich, Switzerland. After the meeting, he went to the Poincare Institute in Paris to study function theory, and spent two years writing a paper on whole functions and meromorphic functions with infinite poles. 1934 received his doctor of science degree in France. His definition of infinite pole was called "bear's infinite pole" by the international mathematics community and was recorded in the history of world mathematics.
In the same year, he returned to China and still served as the head and professor of the Department of Mathematics of Tsinghua University. He also hired two famous French and American mathematicians to give lectures in Tsinghua and founded the first mathematical magazine in China.
