Finnish mathematician (1873–1949)
Karl Frithiof Sundman (28 October 1873, in Kaskinen – 28 September 1949, in Helsinki) was a Finnish mathematician[1] who used analytic methods to prove the existence of a convergent infinite series solution to the three-body problem in two papers published in 1907[2] and 1909.[3] His results gained fame when they were reproduced in Acta Mathematica in 1912.[4] He also published a paper on regularization methods in mechanics in 1912.
