Olof Hanner
Olof Hanner (7 December 1922 in Stockholm – 19 September 2015 in Gothenburg) was a Swedish mathematician. Education and career Hanner earned his Ph.D. from Stockholm University in 1952. He was a professor at the University of Gothenburg from 1963 to 1989. Contributions In a 1956 paper, Hanner introduced the Hanner polytopes and the Hanner spaces having these polytopes as their metric balls. Hanner was interested in a Helly property of these shapes, later used to characterize them by : unlike other convex polytopes, it is not possible to find three translated copies of a Hanner polytope that intersect pairwise but do not have a point of common intersection. Subsequently, the Hanner polytopes formed a class of important examples for the Mahler conjecture and for Kalai's 3''d'' conjecture. In another paper from the same year, Hanner proved a set of inequalities related to the uniform convexity of ''L''''p'' spaces, now known as Hanner's inequalities. Other contributions of Han ...

4664 Hanner
In the Whyte notation for classifying steam locomotives by wheel arrangement, a 4-6-6-4 is a railroad steam locomotive that has four leading wheels followed by two sets of six coupled driving wheels and four trailing wheels. 4-6-6-4's are commonly known as Challengers. A similar wheel arrangement exists for Garratt locomotives, on which both engine units swivel, but is referred to as 4-6-0+0-6-4. Other equivalent classifications are: UIC classification: 2CC2 (also known as German classification and Italian classification) French classification: 230+032 Turkish classification: 35+35 Swiss classification: 3/5+3/5 The UIC classification is refined to (2'C)C2' for simple articulated locomotives. Challengers were most common in the Union Pacific Railroad, but many other railroads ordered them as well. An expansion for the Union Pacific Challenger class was the Union Pacific Big Boy class, being a 4-8-8-4, instead of a 4-6-6-4. Today, the only Challenger locomotives that survive w ...
