Abstract

The collection is composed of documents related to Paul Erdős1, his work, and his relationships with other mathematicians. It includes correspondence, obituaries, articles, and other material related to Paul Erdős.

1 Paul Erdős’ surname in this collection is spelled using the Hungarian “ő” (o with double acute accent) to match Hungarian orthography. Alternate spellings, used primarily by Western presses, include “Erdos” (o without marks) or “Erdös” (o with umlaut) due to spelling errors, limited key options, or limited browser compatibility.
