‎"HERMANN, GRETE.‎

Reference : 44830

(1937)

‎Über die Grundlagen physikalischer Aussagen in den älteren und den modernen Theorien.‎

‎Berlin, Offentliches Leben, 1937. 8vo. In the original wrappers. With repair to lower part and lower right corner bended, otherwise a very nice and clean copy. [Hermann:] Pp. 309-398. [Entire issue: Pp. 273-504, (3) + frontispeice depicting Jakob Friedrich Fries.].‎


‎First printing of Hermann's publication on the historical development and foundation of physics. Today she if famous for her pioneering work with respect to the interpretation of quantum theory, the present paper being her most extensive on the philosophical aspects of the development of research in physics.Attempts to interpret and understand what was then new and very puzzling physics were of great contemporary importance when Grete Hermann entered the field, and her work in physics was mainly related to the interpretation of quantum mechanics. More specifically, her main work in physics was on the philosophical foundations of quantum mechanics, the significance of modern physics for the theory of knowledge, and causality in physics. She was one of the active early contributors to the historic debates on causality in quantum mechanics, and on the completeness of quantum mechanics and its description of reality.Hermann's work during the 1930s reveals the influence of her background in the neo-Kantian school, yet it also owes much to the way in which Heisenberg and Weizsäcker had interpreted Bohr's doctrine of the indispensability of classical concepts in the description of experience.Heisenberg has written that Grete Hermann came to Leipzig for the purpose of challenging the philosophical basis of atomic physics. Heisenberg devoted an entire chapter of his book ""Physics and Beyond: Encounters and Conversations"" to a reconstruction of discussions that he had on quantum mechanics and Kantian philosophy with Grete Hermann and Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker.‎

(1926)

‎Die Frage der endlich vielen Schritte in der Theorie der Polynomideale. - [THE FOUNDATION OF COMPUTER ALGEBRA]‎

‎(Berlin, Julius Springer, 1926). 8vo. Without wrappers. Extracted from ""Mathematische Annalen. Begründet 1868 durch Alfred Clebsch und Carl Neumann. 95. Band"". Pp. 735-788.‎


‎First publication of Hermann's seminal paper (her doctoral thesis) which founded computer algebra. It first established the existence of algorithms - including complexity bounds - for many of the basic problems of abstract algebra, such as ideal membership for polynomial rings. Hermann's algorithm for primary decomposition is still in use today. The paper anticipates the birth of computer algebra by 39 years.""[The paper] is an intriguing example of ideas before their time. While computational aspects of mathematics were more fashionable before the abstractions of the twentieth century took hold, mathematicians of that time certainly knew nothing of computers nor of today's idea of what an algorithm is. The significance of the paper can be found on the first page, where we find (in translation):The claim that a computation can be found in finitely many steps will mean here that an upper bound for the number of necessary operations for the computation can be specified. Thus it is not enough, for example, to suggest a procedure, for which it can be proved theoretically that it can be executed in finitely many operations, if no upper bound for the number of operations is known. The fact that the author requires an upper bound suggests that there must exist an actual procedure or algorithm for doing computations. We see in this paper the first examples of procedures (with upper bounds given) for a variety of computations in multivariate polynomial ideals. Thus we have here a paper anticipating by 39 years the birth of computer algebra"". (ACM SIGSAM Bulletin, Volume 32. 1998).Not in Hook & Norman.‎
