Edmund Landau • He was a German • He graduate at 16 for High School which is 2 years earlier than normal • A student from University of Berlin and went back to teach at the same school • He doctorate in 1899 for a thesis on number theory • He became a lecture at 1899 and he return to the University of Berlin and quit at 1909
Louis Mordell • He was a British • Went to Manchester College of Technology to teach • He took the third place in the Mathematical Tripos. • After that he began to research about Diophantine equations • Chowla-Mordell theorem, Mordell-Weil theorem and Erdős - Mordell inequality
Things that important between the of them • Both of them invented some equations to help the world • Chowla-Mordell Equation need to be complete with Number theory
Different things between them • Mordell did participate at the World War I but Landau didn’t • Landau return to his mother-school to act as lecture but Mordell didn’t return to his mother-school.
