This mini-review examines the problems of geometric function theory that arise in the synthesis of electric filters, and in particular the work of A. A. Gonchar on the generalisation of Zolotarev’s third problem. The modern development of this topic is described, in particular the method of algebro-geometric Ansatz.

What we are concerned with is, roughly, the generalization to the elliptic case of the familiar multiple angle formulas of elementary trigonometry such as cos2θ=2cos2θ1;tan2θ=2tanθ1tan2θ;sin2θ=2sinθcos=2sinθ(1sin2θ)\begin{array}{l} \cos \,2\theta = 2{\cos ^2}\,\theta \, - \,1;\,\tan \,2\theta = \frac{{2\,\tan \theta }}{{1 - {{\tan }^2}\theta }};\\ \sin \,2\theta = 2\,\sin \,\theta \cos \, \in = 2\sin \,\theta \sqrt {\left( {1 - {{\sin }^2}\theta } \right)} \end{array} (which are respectively polynomial, rational, algebraic). More generally we have cosnθ=2n1[cosnθ14cosn2θ+]\cos \,{\rm{n}}\theta = {2^{n - 1}}\left[ {{{\cos }^n}\theta - \frac{1}{4}\,{{\cos }^{n - 2}}\,\theta \, + \, \ldots } \right] which we can also express as a Chebyshev polynomial: {{\rm{T}}_{\rm{n}}}\left( {\rm{x}} \right) = {\rm{cos}}\left( {{\rm{n}}\,{\rm{arccos}}\,{\rm{x}}} \right) = {{\rm{2}}^{{\rm{n}} - {\rm{1}}}}\left[ {{{\rm{x}}^{\rm{n}}} - \frac{{\rm{1}}}{{\rm{4}}}{\rm{n}}{{\rm{x}}^{{\rm{n}} - {\rm{2}}}}\,{\rm{ + }}\,{\rm{ \ldots }}} \right] = {{\rm{2}}^{{\rm{n}} - {\rm{1}}}}{\rm{ }}{{\rm{\tilde T}}_{\rm{n}}}\left( {\rm{x}} \right)

The computer-aided era in Switzerland started in 1950 with the relay machine Z4. Its main properties are described. and the numerical work carried out on it is presented. The ideas pursued and the basic discoveries realized are discussed. During the operation of the Z4, the staff of the Institute for Applied Mathematics at ETH designed the electronic computer ERMETH. Its properties as well as the most important numerical investigations of the years from 1956 to 1962 are outlined, including the work on algorithmic languages and compilers.
