It is certainly to Frobenius's credit that he so quickly spotted the genius of his student Schur . Frobenius's representation theory for finite groups was later to find important applications in quantum mechanics and theoretical physics which may not have entirely pleased the man who had such "pure" views about mathematics.
Ito ay tiyak na Frobenius's credit na siya kaya mabilis na batik-batik ang mga henyo ng kanyang mga mag-aaral Schur. Frobenius's representation theory para sa wakas grupo ay mamaya upang mahanap ang mahalagang aplikasyon sa quantum mechanics at panteorya pisika na kung saan ay hindi maaaring magkaroon ng ganap na natutuwa ang mga tao na tulad ng "purong" views tungkol sa matematika.
