Emmy Noether

The mathematician Emmy Noether was a "creative mathematical genius" (Albert Einstein) whose work had far-reaching impact beyond the world of pure mathematics. This collection brings together content exploring Noether's life and work

Emmy Noether

In this episode of Maths on the Move we talk to historian of mathematics David E. Rowe about the play Diving into math with Emmy Noether.
