Julius Wilhelm Richard Dedekind [ˈdeːdəˌkɪnt] (6 October 1831 – 12 February 1916) was a German mathematician who made important contributions to number theory, abstract algebra (particularly ring theory), and the axiomatic foundations of arithmetic.
Richard Dedekind was a German mathematician who developed a major redefinition of irrational numbers in terms of arithmetic concepts. Although not fully recognized in his lifetime, his treatment of the ideas of the infinite and of what constitutes a real number continues to influence modern.
Dedekind formulated his theory in the ring of integers of an algebraic number field. The general term 'ring' does not appear, it was introduced later by Hilbert . Dedekind, in a joint paper with Heinrich Weber published in 1882, applies his theory of ideals to the theory of Riemann surfaces.
Apr 22, 2008 · Richard Dedekind (1831–1916) was one of the greatest mathematicians of the nineteenth-century, as well as one of the most important contributors to algebra and number theory of all time.
Richard Dedekind (1831 – 1916) was a German mathematician and one of the students of Gauss. He developed many concepts in set theory, and invented Dedekind cuts as the formal definition of real numbers.
Julius Wilhelm Richard Dedekind (October 6, 1831 – February 12, 1916) was one of the major German mathematicians in the late nineteenth century who did important work in abstract algebra, algebraic number theory, and laid the foundations for the concept of the real numbers.
Dedekind cut, in mathematics, concept advanced in 1872 by the German mathematician Richard Dedekind that combines an arithmetic formulation of the idea of continuity with a rigorous distinction between rational and irrational numbers. Dedekind reasoned that the real numbers form an ordered.

Nov 16, 2017 · Mathematician Richard Dedekind asked these questions 159 years ago at ETH Zurich, and became the first person to define real numbers. To mark this occasion, the Israeli science historian Leo Corry will give a public lecture on the unity of Dedekind’s number theoretic concepts.
