FTP, name this Norwegian mathematician who shares his surname with the second son of Adam and Eve.
With this man's encouragement Leopold Crelle began publishing his world famous journal of mathematics in 1826. In competition with Karl Gustav Jacobi, before his death, this man rapidly developed the theory of elliptic functions. When he sent his famous proof to Gauss, Gauss incorrectly dismissed it. Earlier he had personally published that proof stating the impossibility of algebraically solving the general equation of the fifth degree. His namesake theorem states that there is a finite number, or genus, of independent integrals of algebraic functions.
