Oswald Veblen By Deane Montgomery Professor Oswald Veblen died at his summer home in Brooklyn, Maine, on August 10, 1960. He was survived by his wife, Elizabeth Richardson Veblen and by four sisters and one brother. He was born in Decorah, Iowa, on June 24, 1880, and was the oldest of a family of eight children, four girls and four boys. He was one of the most influential mathematicians of this century, partly through his contributions to the subject and partly through the effect of his remarkable judgment and force of character. He had an unfailing belief in high standards and was prepared to stand for them irrespective of his own comfort or convenience. He contributed in a decisive way not only to excellence in mathematics but to excellence in American scholarship in general. He was one of those mainly responsible for carrying Princeton forward from a slender start to a major mathematics center. There can be but very few who play such a large part in the development of American and world mathematics. Shortly after his death the faculty and trustees of the Institute for Advanced Study joined in writing of him as follows: "We are acutely conscious of the loss to the Institute and to the world of learning of a major figure.

Veblen, Oswald Veblen, Oswald (1880-1960), who played a major role in the development of Princeton and American mathematics, was the grandson of a Norwegian cabinet maker who came to Wisconsin in 1847 and took up farming. He was the son of Andrew Anderson Veblen, a professor of mathematics and physics at the University of Iowa, and the nephew of the economist and social theorist Thorstein Veblen. Oswald Veblen took an A.B. at the University of Iowa in 1898, a second A.B. at Harvard in 1900, and a Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1903. Dean Fine, who was then building up the mathematics department, heard of Veblen's work at Chicago and, at his suggestion, President Wilson called Veblen to Princeton as one of the original preceptors in 1905. Dean Fine had a remarkable knack for picking promising young mathematicians, and none of his excellent choices was more successful than Veblen. He soon established himself as a leading geometer whose articles and books were noted for their completeness, precision, and clarity. He attracted many able graduate students, some of whom were added to the faculty, and he helped Dean Fine recruit other distinguished men for the growing department. His research and that of his students covered many fields, including the foundations of geometry, differential geometry and its connection with relativity theory, symbolic logic, and analysis situs (later known as topology). Under his leadership Princeton became one of the world's great centers in topology.
