The Concept of a Riemann Surface

Hermann Weyl, a pivotal figure in mathematics and theoretical physics, made significant contributions that bridged pure mathematics with quantum mechanics and relativity. As a prominent student of David Hilbert, Weyl's diverse work spanned number theory, complex analysis, mathematical physics, and geometry. His early publication, "The Concept of a Riemann Surface," released in 1913, gained immediate recognition for its profound impact on various mathematical fields. This reprint captures the essence of his influential legacy.
