George Bruce Halsted (November 25, 1853 – March 16, 1922), usually cited as G. B. Halsted, was an American mathematician who explored foundations of geometry and introduced non-Euclidean geometry into the United States through his own work and his many important translations. Especially noteworthy were his translations and commentaries relating to non-Euclidean geometry, including works by Bolyai, Lobachevski, Saccheri, and Poincaré. He wrote an elementary geometry text, Rational Geometry, based on Hilbert's axioms, which was translated into French, German, and Japanese.

  • George Bruce Halsted (* 25. November 1853; † 16. März 1922; oft G. B. Halsted zitiert) war ein US-amerikanischer Mathematiker, der sich mit Geometrie beschäftigte. Halsted studierte an der Princeton University (Bachelor 1875, Master 1878) und promovierte 1879 an der Johns Hopkins University bei James Joseph Sylvester (als dessen erster Doktorand). Danach war er Instructor in Princeton, bis er 1884 als Professor an die University of Texas at Austin ging, wo er unter anderem Robert Lee Moore und Leonard Dickson unterrichtete. Als er die Wahl eines Professors öffentlich kritisierte (der dem fähigeren R. L. Moore vorgezogen wurde) wurde er in Austin entlassen. Halsted ging an das St. John´s College in Annapolis, 1903 bis 1906 war er am Kenyon College in in Ohio und danach bis 1914 am Colorado (de)
