BOREL (Émile).
Lessons on the theory of functions. Paris, Gauthier-Villars, 1898. In-8, brown percaline bradel (Binding of the time). Original edition of the lessons taught at the École normale supérieure in the spring of 1897. First personal work by Émile Borel (1871-1956), in which he clarifies the concept of the measurable ensemble, initiated by Jordan, and builds the class of ensembles now called "boréliens". Lebesgue used these notions to develop his theory of the integral. Enclosed are 13 texts by the same author, including his remarkable doctoral thesis presented at the Faculty of Sciences in Paris in 1894 (an in-4 volume bound in modern brown half-maroquin), an article on the zeros of integer functions (published in Acta Mathematica, 1897), and the work co-written with André Chéron, Théorie mathématique du bridge à la portée de tous (1940).
