Oskar Perron ( him. Oskar Perron ; May 7, 1880 , Frankenthal - February 22, 1975 , Munich ) - German mathematician, known for his contribution to the theory of differential equations , in particular, Perron's method for solving the Dirichlet problem for partial elliptic partial differential equations. He also wrote an encyclopedic book on continuous fractions ( it. Die Lehre von den Kettenbrüchen ). The following mathematical concepts are named for Perron:
- Perron-Frobenius operator
- Hadamard-Perron theorem
- Frobenius-Perron theorem
- Perron numbers
- Perron Method [1]
