Died 18th December, 2014
Zodiac Sign Virgo
Nationality Swedish
Occupation Mathematician

Sonja Lyttkens (26 August 1919 – 18 December 2014) was a Swedish mathematician, the third woman to earn a mathematics doctorate in Sweden and the first of these women to obtain a permanent university position in mathematics. She is also known for her work to make academia less hostile to women, and for pointing out that the Swedish taxation system of the time, which provided an income deduction for husbands of non-working wives, pressured women even in low-income families not to work. Her observations helped push Sweden into taxing married people separately from their spouses.
