Wolf Barth
The wolf (''Canis lupus''; : wolves), also known as the gray wolf or grey wolf, is a large canine native to Eurasia and North America. More than thirty subspecies of ''Canis lupus'' have been recognized, and gray wolves, as popularly understood, comprise wild subspecies. The wolf is the largest extant member of the family Canidae. It is also distinguished from other ''Canis'' species by its less pointed ears and muzzle, as well as a shorter torso and a longer tail. The wolf is nonetheless related closely enough to smaller ''Canis'' species, such as the coyote and the golden jackal, to produce fertile hybrids with them. The banded fur of a wolf is usually mottled white, brown, gray, and black, although subspecies in the arctic region may be nearly all white. Of all members of the genus ''Canis'', the wolf is most specialized for cooperative game hunting as demonstrated by its physical adaptations to tackling large prey, its more social nature, and its highly adva ...

Benjamin Bramer
Benjamin Bramer (15 February 1588 – 17 March 1652) was a German mathematician, architect, inventor, and adviser. Early life Bramer was born on 15 February 1588 in Felsberg, Germany to a Protestant minister father. The minister later died when Bramer was three years old. This led him to be adopted by his brother-in-law, Jost Bürgi, who was a prominent mathematician at the time. He moved to Bürgi's home in Kassel after being adopted. Bürgi educated Bramer from a young age, particularly in the fields of mathematics and architecture. When Bramer was 16 he stayed in Prague with his foster father after Bürgi was appointed to the imperial court. Bramer would stay there for five years before returning to Kassel to begin his career. Career One of his first jobs was as an architectural adviser to Count Christian von Waldeck. He advised him to construct a new church in the town of Widungen, but the out break of the Thirty Years' War caused him to begin focusing on the design of mi ...

Hermann Bottenbruch
Hermann Bottenbruch (14 September 1928 – 20 May 2019) was a German mathematician and computer scientist. Bottenbruch grew up in . Toward the end of World War II, he served as a . In 1947, he began the study of mathematics at the where he graduated in 1951. Following graduation, he joined the staff of the Institute for Applied Mathematics at the (TU Darmstadt). The institute was founded by Alwin Walther. Bottenbruch earned his doctorate there in 1957. In the same year on Walther's recommendation he joined the international working group to develop a new programming language. This language was intended to combine then current understanding of programming languages into one standard. According to Friedrich Bauer, Bottenbruch coined the name ''ALGOL'', at least for Germany, from the English ''Algorithmic Language''. In 1958, the members of the working group met at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich), including Friedrich L. Bauer, Bottenbruch, Heinz R ...

Karl-Heinz Boseck
Karl-Heinz Boseck (born 11 December 1915) was a German mathematician. According to Segal (2003), Boseck was a fanatical National Socialist and a student leader. He was an informer of the Gestapo since 1939. In 1944, shortly after his diploma graduation he was made an Untersturmführer of the Nazi SS and established a department for numerical computation in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp He was exempted from war service due to a disease. He was an assistant of the German mathematician Alfred Klose( de) at Berlin University, and had great influence in the faculty during World War II. At the first mathematicians camp 1–3 July 1938 in the youth hostel of Ützdorf( de) near Bernau, he lectured "On the development of student science work". He was department chairman for natural science at Berlin University, and had great influence on Ludwig Bieberbach Ludwig Georg Elias Moses Bieberbach (; 4 December 1886 – 1 September 1982) was a German mathematician and Nazi.

Oskar Bolza
Oskar Bolza (12 May 1857 – 5 July 1942) was a German mathematician, and student of Felix Klein. He was born in Bad Bergzabern, Palatinate, then a district of Bavaria, known for his research in the calculus of variations, particularly influenced by Karl Weierstrass' 1879 lectures on the subject. Life Bolza entered the University of Berlin in 1875. His first interest was in linguistics, then he studied physics with Kirchhoff and Helmholtz, but experimental work did not attract him, so he decided on mathematics in 1878. The years 1878–1881 were spent studying under Elwin Christoffel and Theodor Reye at Strasbourg, Hermann Schwarz at Göttingen, and particularly Karl Weierstrass in Berlin. In the spring of 1888 he landed in Hoboken, NJ, searching for a job in the United States: he succeeded in finding a position in 1889 at Johns Hopkins University and then at the then newly founded Clark University.According to . In 1892 Bolza joined the University of Chicago and worked ...

Friedrich Böhm
Friedrich Böhm (* 15 August 1885 in Harburg (Swabia) near Donauwörth, died 25 August 1965 in Munich) was a German actuarial and insurance mathematician and university lecturer. During World War II, Böhm was conscripted into Group IV of Inspectorate 7 (german: Horchleistelle), an early cipher bureau and Signals intelligence agency of the German Army (Wehrmacht) (german: Heer), working to decode foreign Ciphers. He would later work in the successor organization: General der Nachrichtenaufklärung, in a similar role. Life Friedrich Böhm studied mathematics at the Gymnasium St. Anna in Augsburg, Munich. In 1908 he undertook his promotion to Dr Phil with a thesis titled: ''Parabolic metric in the hyperbolic space''. Lindemann, who had already given lectures on Actuarial mathematics in Munich, drew his attention to questions of mortality and disability. In 1911, he enabled Böhm's Habilitation in this discipline. Böhm became a private lecturer and, following the exampl ...

Friedrich Bessel
Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel (; 22 July 1784 – 17 March 1846) was a German astronomer, mathematician, physicist, and geodesist. He was the first astronomer who determined reliable values for the distance from the sun to another star by the method of parallax. A special type of mathematical functions were named Bessel functions after Bessel's death, though they had originally been discovered by Daniel Bernoulli and then generalised by Bessel. Life and family Bessel was born in Minden, Westphalia, then capital of the Prussian administrative region Minden-Ravensberg, as second son of a civil servant into a large family. At the age of 14 Bessel was apprenticed to the import-export concern Kulenkamp at Bremen. The business's reliance on cargo ships led him to turn his mathematical skills to problems in navigation. This in turn led to an interest in astronomy as a way of determining longitude. Bessel came to the attention of a major figure of German astronomy at the time, Heinric ...

Ludwig Berwald
Ludwig Berwald (8 December 1883 – 20 April 1942) was a German mathematician best known for his contributions to differential geometry, especially Finsler geometry. He taught in Munich and Prague for 32 years, publishing 54 papers, before being deported by the German secret police to the Łódź Ghetto, where he and his wife Hedwig died within a year. Biography Ludwig was one of three children of Max Berwald, an East Prussian owner of a famous bookstore, and Friedericke Fischel. They were "Jewish with Max coming from East Prussia and his wife being a native of Prague." In 1900, the family moved to Munich, where Ludwig matriculated at Ludwig Maximilian University in 1902. There he studied mathematics under Aurel Voss, alongside notable mathematicians Hugo Dingler and Fritz Noether, and received his PhD in 1908 for his thesis entitled ''Über die Krümmungseigenschaften der Brennflächen eines geradlinigen Strahlsystems und der in ihm enthaltenen Regelflächen'' (''On the ...
