A chapter in Gösta Mittag-Leffler, 2010, pp 321-325 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Sonya Kovalevsky lectured during the spring semester 1885 on the theory of algebraic functions (based on Weierstrass), as well as elementary algebra – a total of three hours each week. And she proudly reported that she had many students in attendance. Mittag-Leffler continued his lectures on the Poincaré functions and, as previously, he held seminars at his home every Monday. Ivar Bendixson acted as his amanuensis, a role that in practice involved two hours a week spent tutoring new students so that they would be able to follow the professors’ lectures, conducting exercises, and occasionally giving lectures on function theory.
