1) Analyst and number theorist John.E. Littlewood
李特尔伍德 (分析与数论大名人,跟Hardy解决了无数数学大疑难问题)

Hardy and Littlewood

2)the pioneer of weather forecasting and numerical analysis Lewis Fry Richardson(天气预报和计算流体力学和数值分析的先驱与创立者,也是分形学的
创立者
Lewis Fry Richardson

3)Number theorist Louis Mordell(数论名人
,证明了Poincaré的一个猜想). He discovered the result for which he is best known, namely the finite basis theorem (or Mordell–Weil theorem ), which proved a conjecture of Henri Poincaré.


Louis Mordell

4) Mordell brought in Reinhold Baer, G. Billing, Paul Erdos(数学怪人,发表了
1,525篇数学论文,解决了大量数学问题), Chao Ko (柯召,the Erdos–Ko–Rado theorem and his breakthrough on Catalan's conjecture), Kurt Mahler, and Beniamino Segre. He also recruited J. A. Todd, Patrick du Val, Harold Davenport, L. C. Young.
 

Paul Erdos

4) Douglas Hartree (开发差分仪,原子物理学里的Hartree方程及其数值解法Hartree-Fock方法,
离子介值里电磁波波动方程Appleton–Hartree equation) made an earlier contribution building a differential analyser. The machine was used for ballistics calculations as well calculating railway timetables. He is also well know for developing numerical analysis (Hartree-Fock Method) and its application to the Hartree–Fock equations of atomic physics

5) Topologist and cryptanalyst Max Newman(密电码破译高手,建造了世界第一台能运行的电子计算机).

Max Newman

6) Newman recruited computer science pioneer Alan Turing (又一个密电码破译高手,现代计算机科学先驱,创立者)


Alan Turing

7) Fluid dynamicist Sydney Goldstein
Taylor–Goldstein equation,对流体力学,特别是边界层理论和湍流有主要贡献)

8) James Lighthill, a fluid dynamicist (超音速飞行与超音速民用航空和卫星的先驱和领导者).

James Lighthill

9) Bernhard Neumann, an influential group theorist(
Petr–Douglas–Neumann theorem).
