They are famous for the simplicity of the concepts employed, the mathematical depth reached, and the diversity of elementary mathematical fields touched. But perhaps their most remarkable feature is the influence that they, together with a mathematics journal for students, seem to have had on the young people of that small country. Among the winners of the first eleven contests (i.e., those contained in volume 11) many turned into scientists of international fame; e.g., L. Fejér, T. von Kármán, D. Kónig, M. Riesz. Among the winners of the next twenty contests (i.e., those contained in this volume) are G. Szegró, T. Radó, E. Teller; all three are well known in the United States, where they now reside. This translation of the Eo̘tvo̘s Contests Problems from 1894́„—–1928 is based on the revised Hungarian edition of J. Ku̘rschák's original compilation. Ku̘rschák combined his excellence in mathematics with his interest in education when he supplied the elegant solutions and illuminating explanations.Anneli Lax New Mathematical LibraryMathematicsProblems, exercises, etcProblem solvingElectronic books.MathematicsProblem solving.510.76Hajós György366360Neukomm G47503Surányi János1918-352676Hajós György366360MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465754903321Hungarian problem book II1909055UNINA
