Ernst Zermelo (1871-1953) is regarded as the founder of
axiomatic set theory and best-known for the first formulation of
the axiom of choice. However, his papers include also pioneering
work in applied mathematics and mathematical physics.
This edition of his collected papers will consist of two
volumes. Besides providing a biography, the present Volume I covers
set theory, the foundations of mathematics, and pure mathematics
and is supplemented by selected items from his Nachlass and part of
his translations of Homer's Odyssey. Volume II will contain his
work in the calculus of variations, applied mathematics, and
physics.
The papers are each presented in their original language
together with an English translation, the versions facing each
other on opposite pages. Each paper or coherent group of papers is
preceded by an introductory note provided by an acknowledged expert
in the field which comments on the historical background,
motivations, accomplishments, and influence.
