Senatore Del Regno
FROM WIKIPEDIA: ENRICO BETTI (21 OCTOBER 1823-11 AUGUST 1892) WAS AN Italian mathematician, now remembered mostly for his 1871 paper on topology that led to the later naming after him of the Betti numbers. He worked also on the theory of equations, giving early expositions of Galois theory. He also discovered Betti's theorem, a result in the theory of elasticity. He was born in Pistoia, Tuscany. He graduated from the University of Pisa in 1846. After a time teaching he held an appointment there from 1857. In 1858 he toured Europe with Francesco Brioschi and Felice Casorati, meeting Bernhard Riemann. Later he worded in the area of theoretical physics opened up by Riemann's work. He was also closely involved in academic politics, and the politicd of the new Italian state.
Doctoral Advisor Ottaviano-Fabrizio Mossotti
Doctoral Students Cesare Arzela, Luigi Bianchi, Ulisse Dini, Federigo Enriques, Gregoria Ricci-Curbastro, and Vito Volterra.
Note: in this cemetery, many of the graves are located on the floor. You walk on them as you stroll through this beautiful cemetery. Such is the case with Enrico Betti.
