Talk:Kōsaku Yosida

Yosida vs Yoshida
I entitled this page 'Yosida' because I am aware that today's preferred transcription of the japanese word would rather be "Yoshida", so I put cross references where I could. MFH 18:37, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * this seems the spelling preferred by the person himself (see google search for his full name) and on most japanese web pages.
 * this is the spelling used on the title page of his famous textbook.

We should use the name he is usually known by - i.e. Yosida. Charles Matthews 22:33, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * In the preface of the Russian translation "Операционное исчисление: Теория гиперфункций" it is mentioned that the author is famous for his book "Функциональный анализ" (1969) (=Functional analysis) and that he is a foreign member of Russian Academy of Sciences, so yes, they are the same.
