The work of Hans Lewy (1904--1988) has touched nearly everysignificant area of functional analysis and has had a profoundinfluence in the direction of applied mathematics and partialdifferential equations from the late 1920s. Famous for hisoriginality and ingenuity, Lewy illustrated and revealed fundamentalprinciples on the theory of partial differential equations, inparticular, on elliptic equations and free boundary problems.
