- It has been proposed that this page, :Emmy Noether, be titled, "Emmy Noether".
Amalie Emmy Noether (1882–1935) was a German mathematician who contributed to abstract algebra and theoretical physics. Albert Einstein described her as the most important woman in the history of mathematics.[1] She herself however wrote in 1915 that she was in a team performing difficult computations for Einstein, and that "none of us understands what they are good for".[2] A direct consequence of Noether's first theorem are certain important laws of conservation derived from the symmetries.[1]
