(there is no evidence that von Neumann and he actually worked together, but from the list of publications, it looks like their interests were somewhat similar). Anyway, a very tragic story. | |

Not allowed to work in Nazi Germany for being a Jew, he moved to the Soviet Union, where he was appointed to a professorship at the University of Tomsk. In November 1937, during the Great Purge, he was arrested at his home in Tomsk by the NKVD . | |
