He was born on September 17, 1826Kingdom of Hanover Breselenz (today's Germany).His father, Frederick Bonhard Riemann, was a local Lutheran priest.He is the second of six children.He is a quiet, sickly and shy person who likes to be alone all his life.His colleague DeDekin(Dedekind)He is one of the few people who know him.according toDedekind He said that besides Riemann's really bad physical condition, he is still aHypochondriapatient.
In 1840, Riemann moved toHanoverShe lived with her grandmother and entered middle school.
In 1842, after his grandmother died, he moved to Johanneum in L ü neburg.
In 1846, Riemann enteredUniversity of GottingenStudy philosophy and theology.During this period, he went to some math lectures, including Gauss'sleast square methodLectures of.With his father's permission, he changed to mathematics.Two years in collegeUniversity of BerlinStudied by C.G.JJacobian And PG. L. Dirichlet's influence.
In the spring of 1847, Riemann transferredUniversity of BerlinAnd put it under the doors of Jacobi, Dirichlet and Steiner.He returned two years laterGottingen。
In 1854, he took the stage for the first time and made a speech entitled "On Action"Geometric Basis", which created Riemannian geometry and provided Einstein's general theory of relativity withFundamentals of Mathematics。
In 1857, he was awarded the associate professor of Gottingen University
In 1857, he published a report onAbelThe paper on function leads to the concept of Riemannian surfaceAbel integralWith the theory of Abel function to a new turning point and do systematic research.Of whichRiemann surfaceFrom topology, analysisAlgebraic geometryAll aspects have been studied in depth.Created a series of pairs ofAlgebraic topologyDevelop the concept of far-reaching influence, and clarify the Riemann Roch theorem supplemented by G. Roch later.In 1857, he was promoted to a non editorial professor of Gottingen University.In 1859, he succeeded Dirichlet as a professor.He also published a paper on the number of prime numbers less than a given value and proposed the Riemann hypothesis.
In 1862, he married Elise Koch.
On July 20, 1866, he went there for the third timeItalyOn the way to recuperationpulmonary tuberculosisHe died in Selasca.[2]

In 1859, he published a report onprime numberIn the paper on the number of prime numbers less than a given valueRiemann ζ functionThe integral representation of ζ function and theFunctional equationHe pointed out that there is a deep connection between the distribution of prime numbers and Riemann ζ function.The core of this correlation is the integral of J (x)expression。
Riemann's work directly affected the development of mathematics in the second half of the 19th century. Many outstanding mathematicians re demonstrated Riemann's asserted theorems. Under the influence of Riemann's thought, many branches of mathematics made brilliant achievements.
Riemann first proposed to useComplex function theoryIn particular, the new idea and new method of studying number theory with ζ function createdAnalytic number theoryAnd has a profound impact on the development of the theory of functions of single complex variable.He is the worldHistory of mathematicsRiemann, one of the most original mathematicians in Shanghai, has not many works, but he is extremely profound and rich in the creation and imagination of concepts.
Riemann's works mainly include: Foundation of General Theory of Functions of Single and Complex Variables, About Assumptions Based on Geometry, Possibility of Representing Functions with Trigonometric Series, Differential Equations of Mathematical Physics (co authored with Weber), Elliptic Function Theory, Gravity, Electricity and Magnetism, Number of Prime Numbers Not Exceeding Known Numbers, etc.
DeDekin published the complete works of Riemann in 1876.Riemann's students collected their lecture notes, which were published in 1902 as a supplement to the complete collection.[5]

Riemann conjecture
One of the difficult problems left by Riemann is the famousRiemann conjecture, YesHilbert(Hilbert) proposed in 1900tricosa-The eighth of the seven problems in the millennium has been listed as one of the seven major problems in the millennium.It requires that the nontrivial zero points of Riemann zeta function ζ (s) are located on the line Re (s)=1/2 of the complex plane.Mathematicians call this line the critical line.Using this term, Riemann conjecture can be expressed as: all nontrivial zeros of Riemann ζ (s) function are located on the critical line.[6]
Sir Eddington said: "A geometer like Riemann can almost foresee the more important features of the real world."
GaussianHe said, "Riemann... has a creative, active, real mathematician's mind and brilliant and rich creativity."
Modern mathematicsBell, a historian, said: "As a mathematician, Riemann's greatness lies in that he gave pure mathematics andapplied mathematicsPowerful in revealing methods and new ideasuniversalityAnd unlimited scope. "
German mathematicianKleinRiemann said: "Riemann has extraordinary intuitive ability, and his genius for understanding is better than all mathematicians of the same generation."[7]
