Classes Faculty Programs Seminars ... Find us Dirk Jan Struik Dirk Struik, a highly respected analyst and geometer, and an internationally acclaimed historian of mathematics, was a good friend of the Mathematics Department at Tufts, and of the Tufts alumnus Norbert Wiener Education Dirk Struik was born in Rotterdam on September 30, 1894, the same year as Norbert Wiener However, in November of that year he received a letter from J. A. Schouten in Delft asking if he would like to become his assistant. He did, and in 1922 he earned his doctorate with J. A. Schouten in tensor analysis and differential geometry. He was an assistant at the Technical University in Delft from 1917 to 1924. Career Norbert Wiener . They took to each other from the start and talked a great deal of shop. They drank beer together and took walks on the nearby hills. When Wiener learned that Struik's plans for the future were rather vague he suggested that Struik come to MIT, where Wiener was an assistant professor. Dirk and Ruth Struik both liked the idea, and when he was offered a lectureship at MIT in the fall of 1926 (as well as a tempting job in Moscow), he accepted. Struik became assistant professor there in 1928, associate professor in 1931, and professor in 1940. He retired from MIT in 1960 as Professor Emeritus of Mathematics. His work at MIT contributed significantly to building up differential geometry there. Family Soon after finishing his dissertation Struik met Dr. Saly Ruth Ramler, a Czech mathematician (and accomplished modern dancer). She had obtained a doctorate on the axiomatics of affine geometry under G. Pick and G. Kowalewski at the University of Prague in 1918 (making her, Struik remarked, possibly the first woman at that venerable University to receive a doctorate in mathematics). In 1923 they were married in Prague. She schemed to get him out of the Netherlands and from under the watchful eyes of Schouten. She made sure he encountered Levi-Civita and Courant at dinner during a mathematics meeting in Jena, and these men arranged for a Rockefeller Fellowship.

Struik of Belmont, MA, a highly respected analyst and geometer, and an internationally acclaimed historian of mathematics, died peacefully at his home on Saturday, October 21, 2000 at the age of 106. Professor Struik was a member of the MIT mathematics faculty from 1928 until 1960, and remained intellectually active throughout his life. Beginning in 1912, Struik was educated very broadly in mathematics and physics at the University of Leiden, taking courses from Lorentz and de Sitter. After a short interruption (for lack of funds), he was invited by J. A. Schouten to do research on tensor analysis and differential geometry. It was during this time that he met and soon married Saly Ruth Ramler, a Czech mathematician and accomplished modern dancer. Dr. Ramler wrote her doctorate on the axiomatics of affine geometry under G. Pick and G. Kowalewski at the University of Prague in 1918, and as Professor Struik later wrote, "Ruth may well have been the first woman at the more than 500 year-old University to receive a doctorate in mathematics." Struik's long and successful career in differential geometry led to a great many mathematical papers and books, including the 1950 text

Remembering Dirk Jan Struik, 1894-2000 On the life and career of dirk Jan struik, mathematician and historian of mathematics, who died on October 21, 2000. dirk Jan struik Mathematician, Historian, and Marxist dirk Jan struik. dirk Jan struik, Professor Emeritus of mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, died http://www.maa.org/news/struik.html

Dirk Jan Struik: Mathematician, Historian, and Marxist By Arthur B. Powell and Marilyn Frankenstein "Mathematicians grow very old; it is a healthy profession. The reason you live long is that you have pleasant thoughts. Math and physics are very pleasant things to do." Dirk Jan Struik, Professor Emeritus of mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, died peacefully on Saturday, 21 October 2000 at his home in Belmont, Massachusetts. He had just turned 106, on September 30. In celebration for what was to be his last birthday, friends from around the world presented him with many multicolor posters containing expressions of admiration and gratitude for the depth and rigor of his academic scholarship and the boldness of his political stances, moving tributes attesting to how he enriched their lives, and words of hope for the worldwide struggle for justice and peace that he championed. Struik's life spanned many eras. He was born in 1894 in Rotterdam, Holland, where he studied from grammar through high school. In a recent interview, he speculated that from his father, who was a schoolteacher, he inherited a love of mathematics and history (Powell and Frankenstein, 1999, p. 421). In 1912, Struik entered Leiden University to study mathematics and physics. In contrast to his high school notions, he attributed his understanding of the spirit of mathematics and science to the theoretical physicist Paul Ehrenfest at Leiden: "All the science I had learned before was static. Ehrenfest showed me how science is a living and growing field" (Powell and Frankenstein, 1999, p. 442).

Ga naar: Home BWSA Alfabetische index Zoeken Email SCHERMERHORN, Dirk ingenieur in de Koezbas-Kemerovo-kolonie in de Sovjet-Unie, is geboren te Groot Schermer op 26 april 1900 en overleed in de Sovjet-Unie op 26 november 1937. Hij was de zoon van Teunis Schermerhorn Wzn, boer, en Trijntje Honig. Op 24 juli 1924 trad hij in het huwelijk met Francisca Johanna Mus, tandarts, met wie hij een dochter en twee zoons kreeg. In de Sovjet-Unie werd zijn naam als Shermergor (transcriptie) geschreven. Schermerhorn volgde de Hoogere Burger School in Alkmaar en ging na zijn eindexamen in Delft de studie voor civiel-ingenieur volgen. Zijn oudste broer Willem had daar landmeetkunde gestudeerd. De beide andere broers werden boer en hun zuster studeerde Nederlands. Al op de HBS leerde Schermerhorn zijn latere vrouw kennen. Dirk Struik, die in 1917 op deze school als wiskundeleraar inviel, herinnerde zich nog tientallen jaren later dat zij een jeugdig stel vormden. De Schermerhorns kenden een hechte familieband, die niet verstoord werd door het feit dat Dirk, waarschijnlijk in 1921, communist werd en daarmee buiten het liberale of vrijzinnig-democratische patroon van de familie viel. In Delft was Schermerhorn secretaris van het Delftsch Studenten Gezelschap voor Sociale Studie geworden. Waarschijnlijk leerde hij daar de al afgestudeerde ingenieur Anton Struik kennen, die net als zijn broer Dirk gegrepen was door het communisme. Uit deze Delftse kring zouden begin jaren twintig verschillende ingenieurs uit idealisme om in de Sovjet-Unie een nieuwe wereld op te bouwen naar Kemerovo in Siberië vertrekken. Dit gebeurde nadat

Professor Emeritus Dirk J. Struik died on October 21 at the age of 106. Struik was an acclaimed mathematician and part of the mathematics faculty at MIT from 1926 until 1960. Born and raised in the Netherlands, Struik obtained his doctorate in 1922 from the University of Leiden. He continued his research at the Technical University in Delft, and later in Rome and Gottingen with a Rockefeller Fellowship. He worked with many prominent mathematicians of the time, including MIT professor Norbert Weiner. Weiner offered Struik an opportunity to lecture in mathematics at MIT in the fall of 1926. Struik accepted, and became an assistant professor by 1928. He was made an associate professor in 1931, and was promoted to professor in 1940. Struik retired as Professor Emeritus of Mathematics in 1960, but remained intellectually active, continuing to lecture at MIT forums, among other activities. In 1972, Harvard University made him an honorary research associate in the History of Science Department. Since then, Struik went on to earn a Gold Medal of Achievement and the first Kenneth Ownsworth May Prize for his work in the history and development of mathematics. Struik is also honored on an aluminum History of Math ceiling at the University of Connecticut, along with his own professor from Holland. This story was published on Tuesday, October 31, 2000.
