Historical Traces of Austrian Mathematicians in the First Half of the 20th Century

摘要

The aim of this paper is to provide a selective overview of available historical records and archival material in relation to Austrian mathematicians. I am limiting the scope of this exposition both geographically and historically, focusing on the cities of Vienna and Innsbruck in roughly the first half of the 20th century. Naturally, this does not imply that these are the only places in Austria where historians or mathematicians could find material of interest, but is simply due to having to choose concrete examples, as an exhaustive coverage would be impossible in this context.
