Title | Letter from E P [Edward Parnall] Culverwell, Trinity College Dublin, to [Joseph] Larmor |
Creator | Culverwell; Edward Parnall (1855-1931); Irish mathematician |
Recipient | Larmor; Sir; Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
Date | 18 January 1897 |
Description | Culverwell notes that he read a pamphlet on calculus of variations by [Ernst] Zermelo, at Larmor's recommendation. He sent a proof expanding on this topic to the London Mathematical Society, which was returned as "unfit for publication". Culverhill recalls a previous time that a similar incident has occurred with his work, this time with regards to the work of [Isaac] Todhunter.
