Über biegungsinvarianten eine anwendung der Lie'schen gruppentheorie.
[Berlin, Stockholm, Paris, F. & G. Beijer, 1892-93.] 4to. Without wrappers as extracted from ""Acta Mathematica. Hrdg. von G. Mittag-Leffler."", Bd. 16, With half title and title page of volume 16, including the frontiespiece. Pp. 153-215.
Reference : 49651
First printing of Zorawski's important paper which is one of the very first responses to Sophus Lie's group theory. ""One of the first mathematicians who reacted to Lie's newly introduced concept was Kasimir Zorawaski, a polish scientist who worked in Warsaw. As examples of differential invariants, Zorawski mentioned Gauss curvature, Beltrami operators, and Minding's geodesic curvature. Similar to Lie, he asked for the number of invariants of different orders. From then on, two concepts played a major role within the theory of differential calculus, initiated by Ricci, and the group concept that was introduced by Lie and improved by Zorawski."" (Earman, The Attraction of gravitation: new studies in the history of general relativity, P. 229)
