An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Ernst Paul Specker (11 February 1920, Zurich – 10 December 2011, Zurich) was a Swiss mathematician. Much of his most influential work was on Quine's New Foundations, a set theory with a universal set, but he is most famous for the Kochen–Specker theorem in quantum mechanics, showing that certain types of hidden variable theories are impossible. He also proved the ordinal partition relation ω2 → (ω2,3)2, thereby solving a problem of Erdős. Specker received his Ph.D. in 1949 from ETH Zurich, where he remained throughout his professional career.

  • Ernst Paul Specker, né le 11 février 1920 à Zurich et mort 10 décembre 2011 dans la même ville est un mathématicien suisse. Ses travaux les plus influents portent sur les nouvelles fondations de Quine, une théorie des ensembles avec un ensemble universel, mais il est surtout connu pour le théorème de Kochen-Specker en mécanique quantique, montrant que certains types de théories de variables cachées sont impossibles. Il a également prouvé la relation de partition ordinale ω 2 → (ω 2, 3) 2, résolvant ainsi un problème d'Erdős. Specker a obtenu son doctorat en 1949 à l'ETH Zurich, où il est resté toute sa carrière, à l'exception de l'année 1950 passée à l'Institute for Advanced Study de Princeton et de deux visites à l'Université Cornell.
