I outline his scholarly path and describe briefly his mathematical achievements. In view of later developments in holomorphic dynamics, I argue that, despite some flaws in his work, Böttcher should be regarded not only as a contributor to the area but in fact as one of its founders.}, doi = {10.4467/2353737XCT.14.074.2524}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/lucjan-emil-bottcher-1872-1937-the-polish-pioneer-of-holomorphic-dynamics} }
