Martin Maximilian Emil Eichler (29 March 1912 – 7 October 1992) was a German number theorist.
Eichler received his Ph.D. from the
Martin Luther University
of Halle-Wittenberg in 1936.
Eichler and
modular forms. The converse notion that every elliptic curve has a corresponding modular form would later be the key to the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.[1][2]
