WJakob Amsler-Laffon was a mathematician, physicist, engineer and the founder of his own factory. Amsler was born on the Stalden near the village of Schinznach in the district of Brugg, canton Aargau, and died in Schaffhausen, Switzerland. His father was Jakob Amsler-Amsler (1779–1869).
WEva Bayer-Fluckiger is a Hungarian and Swiss mathematician. She is an Emmy Noether Professor Emeritus at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. She has worked on several topics in topology, algebra and number theory, e.g. on the theory of knots, on lattices, on quadratic forms and on Galois cohomology. Along with Raman Parimala, she proved Serre's conjecture II regarding the Galois cohomology of a simply-connected semisimple algebraic group when such a group is of classical type.
WErwin Bolthausen is a Swiss mathematician, specializing in probability theory, statistics, and stochastic models in mathematical physics.
WArmand Borel was a Swiss mathematician, born in La Chaux-de-Fonds, and was a permanent professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, United States from 1957 to 1993. He worked in algebraic topology, in the theory of Lie groups, and was one of the creators of the contemporary theory of linear algebraic groups.
WJulius Richard Büchi (1924–1984) was a Swiss logician and mathematician.
WBeno Eckmann was a Swiss mathematician who was a student of Heinz Hopf.
WJérôme Franel (1859–1939) was a Swiss mathematician who specialised in analytic number theory. He is mainly known through a 1924 paper, in which he establishes the equivalence of the Riemann hypothesis to a statement on the size of the discrepancy in the Farey sequences, and which is directly followed by a development on the same subject by Edmund Landau.
WGünther Hans Frei is a Swiss mathematician and historian of mathematician.
WKarl Rudolf Fueter was a Swiss mathematician, known for his work on number theory.
WCarl Friedrich Geiser was a Swiss mathematician, specializing in algebraic geometry. He is known for the Geiser involution and Geiser's minimal surface.
WSalomon Eduard Gubler (1845–1921) was a Swiss mathematician. With Johann Heinrich Graf he published Einleitung in Die Theorie Der Bessel'schen Funktionen in two volumes (1898–1900). He was the author of very appreciated textbooks on mathematics and numerous reports about the methodology and organization on mathematics teaching, and he was a member of the Swiss commission for the teaching of mathematics and founder of the Swiss association of teachers of mathematics. His main research interest was the Bessel functions.
WConrad Habicht was a Swiss mathematician and close personal friend of Albert Einstein. Together with Maurice Solovine, the three founded the Olympia Academy, an informal circle of friends who met together in Bern from 1902 to 1904 to discuss physics.
WJoos Ulrich Heintz is an Argentinean and Swiss mathematician. He is currently a professor emeritus at the University of Buenos Aires.
WLouis Kollros was a Swiss mathematician. From 1909 to 1948 he was a professor ordinarius of geometry at ETH Zurich.
WFerdinand Rudio was a German and Swiss mathematician and historian of mathematics.
WPaul Seidel is a Swiss-Italian mathematician. He is a faculty member at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He used to be a member of the mathematics faculty at the University of Chicago.
