Author Biography

Polish mathematician Stefan Banach (1892-1945) laid the foundations of functional analysis in his doctoral thesis, and he continued to refine the concept throughout his life. His numerous contributions to mathematics include the introduction and development of the concept of complete normed linear spaces, known today as Banach spaces.
