The previous post dealt with a death on August 6.
On that date nine years earlier —
"Atle Selberg, who had a major influence in mathematics
and especially in analytic number theory during the 20th century,
died on August 6 [2007]. Born on June 14, 1917, in Langesund,
Norway, he received his Ph.D. in 1943 from the University of Oslo. . . ."
