Abstract
THIS concluding fraction of the papers of Lorenz is prefaced with an interesting critical account of his life and works. We see the young Lorenz largely self-taught, preferring to work out problems independently, although the result was usually to find out that they had been solved long before. It was in this laborious way that his mathematical gifts were developed. Owing to indifference to the usual courses of instruction, there was little sympathy between him and his teachers, and he left the Copenhagen Polytechnic without distinction. Be that as it may, by the year 1887 he had become a Councillor of State, and had received the honorary degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Upsala.
