Lars Varlerian Ahlfors (1907-1996), Professor of Mathematics at Harvard University (1935-1938, 1946-1977) was an internationally known theoretician and teacher. In a career that spanned sixty years, he made decisive contributions in mathematics through his studies of complex functions, meromorphic curves, the value distribution theory, Reimann surfaces, conformal geometry, extremal length, quasiconformal mappings, and Kleinian groups. Over his lifetime he published almost 100 papers and several ...
