Andreas Loos 2012-11-07T13:24:17Z 2013-02-17T17:21:37Z <p>Some time ago I read somewhere (and I don't remember where it was) that Stefan Banach -- a highly creative and great mathematician -- did not always write down his ideas.</p> <p>Allegedly, he did not write his own thesis (but of course, all the mathematics in it came from him). Is that true? And is it known who wrote it then?</p>
