Definition
  1. Proper noun:
    • A German mathematician: Bernhard Riemann was a 19th-century mathematician whose work profoundly influenced geometry, analysis, and mathematical physics.
    • The namesake of mathematical concepts: The name "Riemann" is primarily used adjectivally in mathematics to denote concepts derived from his work, such as the Riemann integral or Riemannian geometry.
Usage Examples
  • Proper noun:
    • The theorems of Riemann form the foundation of much modern analysis.
    • Our professor specializes in the work of Riemann.
Advanced Usage
  • The term is almost exclusively used in academic and scientific contexts to refer to the mathematician or, more commonly, to concepts named after him. In standard usage, it functions as a proper noun. Its adjectival forms ("Riemannian") are more frequently encountered in technical discourse.
    • Riemann's hypothesis remains one of the great unsolved problems in mathematics.
Variants and Related Words
  • Riemannian (adjective): Pertaining to the geometric theories of Bernhard Riemann.
    • Riemannian geometry generalizes the concepts of surfaces to higher dimensions.
  • Riemann sum (noun): A method for approximating the definite integral of a function.
  • Riemann integral (noun): The formal definition of the integral based on the limit of Riemann sums.
  • Riemann surface (noun): A one-dimensional complex manifold.
Synonyms
  • Bernhard Riemann: The full name.
  • (There are no true synonyms, as it is a unique proper noun. In mathematical contexts, his name is synonymous with specific theories.)
Related Phrases and Compounds
  • Riemann zeta function: A central function in number theory, defined for complex numbers.
  • Riemann curvature tensor: A key concept in differential geometry describing curvature.
  • Riemann mapping theorem: A foundational result in complex analysis.
Related Terminology
  • Non-Euclidean geometry: A type of geometry for which Riemann provided foundational models.
  • Differential geometry: A field of mathematics greatly advanced by Riemann's ideas.
Noun
  1. pioneer of non-Euclidean geometry (1826-1866)
