Guido Fubini[1] (19 January 1879 – 6 June 1943) was an Italian mathematician, known for Fubini's theorem and the Fubini–Study metric.
Life
Born in
elliptic spaces.[2]
After earning his doctorate, he took up a series of professorships. In 1901 he began teaching at the
Politecnico in Turin and then the University of Turin
, where he stayed for a few decades.
During this time his research focused primarily on topics in
electrical circuits and acoustics
.
In 1938, when Fubini at the age of 59 was nearing retirement,
Jew, Fubini feared for the safety of his family, and so accepted an invitation by Princeton University to teach there; he died in New York City
four years later.
Legacy
A main-belt asteroid,
22495 Fubini
, was named in his honour.
