Mary Died in 1998
She lived a long life, 97 years.
Timeline
Born on December 17, 1900.
October 29, 1929 was the start of the great depression.
Theory of "Zeros of Integral Functions" was discovered in 1930
WWII began on September 1, 1939 .
Mary made improvements on the radio amplifier during WWII on 1935
Civil rights movment began in the 1960s.
Mary Returned to Cambridge where she was an editor for the papers of G.H. Hardy. And she died their in 1998.
(Throughout her life she went through a lot of harsh times but she was still successful)
Importance
Mary Lucy Cartwright
The thesis on zeros of integral functions and the Cartwright's theorem were and still are used today to teach many students in college about these certain functions. This is how many people use her discovery today.
When Mary was alive, she discovered how to make improvements to the radio amplifier that was used in WWII. This made communication during the war a lot easier.
Contributions
Her thesis was on "The Zeros of Integral Functions of Special Types." This work was published into two volumes. This contribution allowed her to become a lecturer at cambridge university.
She also used Aflor's technique of conformal mapping to prove functions.
An entire function of order p has at most 2p asymptomatic values. This became known as Cartwright's Theorem.
She also proved the chaos theory with a team of scientists
Education
In 1919 Mary Cartwright went to St Hugh's College, in Oxford, to read mathematics.
Mary Cartwright went on to obtain a First in 1923, only the second year in which women took Final degrees at Oxford.
She returned to Oxford in 1928 for her D.Phil in mathematics under the supervision of G. H. Hardy and E. C. Titchmarsh, receiving the degree in 1930.
Family
By: Jack DeFuria
Her father was a rector. This is a member of the clergy who has power in the church.
