Influential German mathematician and logician who created the foundation for sequent calculi (also known as "Gentzen systems") in his paper "Investigations into Logical Deduction" (1934, available in e.g. Szabo 1969). Gentzen's original sequent calculus (nowadays usually known as LK) is an important deduction system for First Order Logic and [create Propositional Logic].
