The 72 pages that link to John von Neumann, each with the reason it gives.

• Imperative programmingRelated: The architecture associated with his name reinforced execution as an ordered instruction stream.

• Insertion sortRelated: Von Neumann’s 1945 report described sorting procedures that included insertion-based methods.

• Technological singularityRelated: He is widely credited with introducing the technological use of “singularity” in the 1950s.

• Farkas' lemmaRelated: His minimax theorem is closely connected to alternatives and linear programming duality.

• John HarsanyiRelated: His foundational game-theoretic framework preceded Harsanyi’s analysis of private information.

• Ergodic theoremRelated: His 1932 result gave a Hilbert-space approach to average convergence.

• Maurice AllaisRelated: His expected-utility framework became the benchmark challenged by Allais’s famous experiment.

• Maurice WilkesRelated: His architecture report influenced the design context for EDSAC and other early stored-program machines.

• Operator theoryRelated: His research developed operator methods in both mathematical analysis and quantum mechanics.

• Oswald VeblenRelated: Veblen recruited von Neumann as one of the Institute for Advanced Study’s first professors.

• Von Neumann–Morgenstern utility theoremRelated: He coauthored the axiomatic treatment of utility that gives the theorem its name.

• Interpretations of quantum mechanicsRelated: His measurement chain made explicit the unresolved boundary between system and observer.

• Invariant subspace problemRelated: His work on operators helped shape the setting in which the problem emerged.
