Boris A. Trakhtenbrot: Academic Genealogy and Publications

  • Chapter
Pillars of Computer Science

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 4800))

Abstract

According to the Mathematics Genealogy Project (at http://genealogy. math.ndsu.nodak.edu ), Trakhtenbrot’s ancestral dag is rooted in Otto Mencke (who received his degree in 1666, but whose advisor is not listed).

Sometimes transcribed as Trahtenbrot, Trachtenbrot, Trajtenbrot. His patronymic “A.” is variously spelled: Abramovich, Avraamovich, Avramovich.
