Abstract

 Alexander Grothendieck is one of the greatest mathematicians of the twenties century. His mathematical works had strong influence on the modern mathematics. He changed the way of thinking to mathematical problems. His results are among the most important discoveries in the twenties century. In this paper we will review his mathematical as well as personal life, as both are very interesting.
