John von Neumann
John von Neumann is a Hungarian-American mathematician, physicist, computer scientist, engineer, and polymorph. Von Neumann is often considered the leading mathematician of his time and is considered "the last representative of the great mathematicians". It integrates pure and applied sciences. Von Neumann has made major contributions in many fields, including mathematics, physics, economics, computer science and statistics. He was a pioneer in the application of operator theory to quantum mechanics in the development of functional analysis, and a key figure in the development of game theory and concepts of the automobile, vehicle construction universal and digital computer. Von Neumann has published over 150 papers in his life: about 60 papers on pure mathematics, 60 papers on applied mathematics, 20 papers on physics, and the rest on special or non-mathematical solid mathematics.
