Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Consider adding a topic to this template: there are already 5,068 articles in the main category, and specifying|topic= will aid in categorization.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation. A model attribution edit summary is Content in this edit is translated from the existing Spanish Wikipedia article at [[:es:Godofredo García]]; see its history for attribution.
You should also add the template {{Translated|es|Godofredo García}} to the talk page.
He studied at the Colegio de Lima, under Pedro A. Labarthe. In 1906 he entered the Faculty of Sciences of the National University of San Marcos, where he received a bachelor's degree (1909) and later his doctorate degree in Mathematical Sciences (1912), with his thesis on "Singular points of flat curves" and "Resistance of Columns of reinforced concrete", respectively. Simultaneously, he studied at the School of Engineers of Peru, now called the National University of Engineering (1908-1910), graduating from Civil engineer in 1911.
In the 1920s he worked with the Polish mathematician Alfred Rosenblatt in San Marcos. In 1938, together with Rosenblatt and other San Marcos mathematicians, he founded the National Academy of Exact, Physical and Natural Sciences of Peru, an institution that he presided over from 1960 until he died in 1970. He also directed the publication Actas de la Academia".
García was elected to the American Philosophical Society in 1943.[1] He was awarded the national prize for scientific research, in recognition of his contributions in the field of mathematical sciences and his "Exact equations and exact solutions to the movement and stresses of viscous fluids" (1948).
He organized conferences in Lima with the participation of Tullio Levi-Civita, Arthur Compton and Garret Birkhoff, among others. In each conference Godofredo García presented a review of the work of these scientists.[2]
He married Alicia Rendón (Ecuadorian) and fathered four children.[3]
