Arthur Norton Milgram (3 June 1912 – 30 January 1961) was an American mathematician.
Perhaps one of his more famous contributions is the Lax–Milgram theorem—a theorem in functional analysis that is particularly applicable in the study of partial differential equations.
[2] Milgram also contributed to graph theory, by co-authoring the article Verallgemeinerung eines graphentheoretischen Satzes von Rédei with Tibor Gallai in 1960.
He worked under the supervision of John Kline [1] (a student of Robert Lee Moore).
Milgram advised 2 students at Syracuse University in the 1940s and 1950s (Robert M. Exner [2] and Adnah Kostenbauder [3]).
