Manin, Hawking and Witten are contemporary members of this Academy: it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontificia_Accademia_delle_Scienze | |

He mentions it was influenced by the metodo rapido of Severi, for which a later reference is in Acta Pont. Accad. Sci., 1952. The earliest proof cited is by F.K. Schmidt, Math. Z., vol.41, 1936. | |
