Born in Wolverhampton, England, Bromwich moved with his family to South Africa during his youth, where he completed his early education. In 1892, he returned to England to attend St John's College, Cambridge, graduating as Senior Wrangler in 1895a distinction awarded to the top mathematics undergraduate. Following his graduation, Bromwich secured a fellowship at St John's College in 1897. He served as a professor of mathematics at Queen's College, Galway, from 1902 to 1907, before returning to Cambridge as a lecturer and fellow at St John's. In 1906, he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society, reflecting his significant contributions to the mathematical community. Bromwich's work spanned various areas, including algebra and analysis. He is particularly noted for providing a rigorous justification of Oliver Heaviside's operational calculus, introducing what is now known as the Bromwich integrala contour integral used in the inverse Laplace transform. His research also extended to electromagnetism, where he explored solutions to Maxwell's equations and the scattering of electromagnetic waves by spheres. Among his publications, An Introduction to the Theory of Infinite Series (1908) stands out as a comprehensive text that has been praised for its depth, despite critiques regarding its structural organization. Additionally, his work on quadratic forms, encapsulated in his 1906 Cambridge Tract, showcased his creative prowess in advancing the understanding of these mathematical constructs.
