Hermann Grassmann

Hermann Günther Grassmann Hermann Günther Grassmann (, ; 15 April 1809 – 26 September 1877) was a German polymath known in his day as a linguist and now also as a mathematician. He was also a physicist, general scholar, and publisher. His mathematical work was little noted until he was in his sixties. His work preceded and exceeded the concept which is now known as a vector space. He introduced the Grassmannian, the space which parameterizes all ''k''-dimensional linear subspaces of an ''n''-dimensional vector space ''V''. In linguistics he helped free language history and structure from each other. Provided by Wikipedia
