July 15,1884. At the age of 14 she started to study to become a doctor. In 1901 she began to study medicine at the University of Bern, Switzerland; as a 17 year old she was one of the youngest students of the faculty of medicine. She acquired the friendship of Professor Strasser, an anatomist and physiologist] and his family, who invited her frequently to his home. This friendship continued until her departure from Bern in 1906.In April 1905 Jenny met Eugen Brinitzer at a Russian Ball. He was born in Neisse [now Nysa in Poland] on March 10th, 1879. In her memoirs she remembered their first encounter as love at first sight. Eugen Brinitzer came to Bern in order to work as an assistant in the dermatology department of the University. When Jenny Brintzer became pregnant in 1907, she withdrew from her university studies, and the couple moved to Hamburg Altona. She gave birth to her first son Carl on Jan. 30, 1907 in Riga. Eventually, she enrolled and finished her last year of medical study at the University of Berlin. In 1908 Jenny Brinitzer had to move to Switzerland and Southern France in order to cure her tuberculosis. During this period Eugen Brinitzer stayed in Hamburg to run his very successful medical practice. When she returned to Hamburg Altona she was confronted with the fact that she wasn’t accepted for the state examination at the University in Berlin. In her memoirs Jenny Brinitzer vividly described how she nevertheless became established as the first female doctor in Hamburg Altona. During her studies in Kiel she gave birth to her second son Walter on Nov. 23, 1910. Finally in December 1911 she passed her exams. In the following years she gave birth to two more children. Her first and long-awaited daughter Gertrude was born on Dec. 9, 1916.In 1938 they left Germany in order to escape the Nazi regime. The couple moved to Bangalore in Southern India, where they established a practice. Jenny Brinitzer became a physician treating many leading members of British and Indian society. In 1947, after India gained independence from Great Britain, the Brinitzers decided to move to Great Neck, N.Y., to be close to their daughter Gertrude, now Trude Kersten. In Great Neck they established their third practice. In 1965 Eugen Brinitzer passed away.While their second son Walter Brinitzer established his own practice in Bangalore and followed his parents to the U.S. as well, their first son Carl Brinitzer moved to Great Britain in 1938. He, who held a doctorate in law, worked as a correspondent for the BBC during and after the war. Carl Brinitzer also published numerous books and wrote frequently for German and British newspapers, e.g. Welt am Sonntag, London Times, Daily Telegraph etc. He died on October 24th, 1974 in Sussex, England and left a widow, Vienna-born Berthe Grossbard, who became known throughout Europe as a radio singer.Before Trude Kersten moved with her husband Ewald from Germany to the U.S. in 1938 she trained to be a chicken farmer. Ewald Kersten (b. Nov. 2, 1911) held a doctor in law degree and studied in Hamburg to specialize in International Traffic Management. From 1933 until 1938 he worked in the freight shipping business, and later he became a branch manager of an international shipping company in Hamburg. In January 1940 he established the Kersten Shipping Agency in New York.There are some books by Carl Brinitzer in the LBI Librarydigitize

    Integrability of Kupershmidt deformations

    No full text
    We prove that the Kupershmidt deformation of a bi-Hamiltonian system is itself bi-Hamiltonian. Moreover, Magri hierarchies of the initial system give rise to Magri hierarchies of Kupershmidt deformations as well. Since Kupershmidt deformations are not written in evolution form, we start with an outline a geometric framework to study Hamiltonian properties of general non-evolution differential equations, developed in Igonin et al. (to appear, 2009) (see also Kersten et al., In: Differential Equations: Geometry, Symmetries and Integrability, Springer, Berlin, 2009)
