Rudolf Weyrich (1894 – 1971) was a German mathematician, physicist, and inventor.

Biography

Weyrich studied at the University of Rostock and at the University of Breslau, where he received in 1922 his Promotion (Ph.D.) under Adolf Kneser.[1] From 1923 to 1925 Weyrich was a Privatdocent at the University of Marburg.[2] In 1925 he became a professor extraordinarius at the Deutsche Technische Hochschule Brünn.[3] He worked there until 1945 when the Hochschule was abolished as part of the expulsion of ethnic Germans from Czechoslovakia. From 1948 to 1950 Weyrich was a lecturer at the Braunschweig University of Technology. In 1950 he was appointed a professor ordinarius at Istanbul University, where he taught until his retirement in 1958. In retirement he lived in Braunschweig.[2]

Rudolf Weyrich ... served in World War I, was wounded at Brzeziny, and had consequently lost the sight in his left eye.[4]

Weyrich was an Invited Speaker of the ICM in 1932 in Zurich.[5]
