0.6. HELGE VON KOCH 27<br />

By what one has told me you ought to be in town now. I would like to meet you very<br />

much and talk to you a little, and ask you also a little service, namely to look through<br />

and give me your judgement <strong>of</strong> a paper <strong>of</strong> a couple <strong>of</strong> pages about Dirichlet series, which<br />

a Russian mathematician sent me for publication in Acta. Could you come out here, say,<br />

tomorrow Friday right after 11, so that we could have lunch together at the restaurant. If<br />

you should be prevented to come give me a telephone call.<br />

Sincerely yours truly Ernst Lindelöf.<br />

var onödigt att den gick retur gick jag ned på kansliet för att höra om jag<br />

theory. Koch’s snowflake is an early example <strong>of</strong> a fractal and was deviced in order to<br />

give a geometric method for the construction <strong>of</strong> a continuous curve which everywhere is<br />

<strong>with</strong>out a tangent. [52], [114].<br />
