Referee's report by William Burnside, on a paper 'On the Abelian system of differential equations, and their rational and integral algebraic integrals, with a discussion of the periodicity of Abelian functions' by W R Westropp Roberts
Reference number: RR/12/379
Date: 02 February 1895

Description
Not recommended for publication in the Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Refers to work of Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann and Augustin-Louis Cauchy. The approach taken is inexact and 'masked by the very artificial nature of the analysis used'. The abstract does not give an idea of the methods employed.
Subject: Mathematics
