Juhani Karhumäki is remembered in mathematics for work the next generation could build on.
The record lists Juhani Karhumäki as Finnish mathematician and theoretical computer scientist.
Juhani Karhumäki was born at Jyväskylän maalaiskunta in 1949. His recorded nationality is Finland. He studied at University of Turku.
Twentieth-century mathematics became abstract and highly specialised, and its methods reached into physics, economics and computing.
Mathematics accumulates without discarding: a proof from two thousand years ago is still a proof.
That the work was done from Finland matters: mathematical training, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
