Hyman Bass: The Founder of Algebraic K-Theory

Abstract: Hyman Bass was a prominent mathematician and mathematics educator in America in the 20th century, and the recipient of the National Medal of Science in 2006. Bass made significant contributions to algebraic K-theory, number theory, group theory and algebraic geometry, and founded the branch of algebraic K-theory. He served as president of the American Mathematical Society and the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction, and had a profound impact on the development of mathematics and mathematics education. In addition, Bass and his disciples also maintained close academic connections with Chinese mathematicians, thereby indirectly contributing to the development of modern mathematics in China.
