Carlos Benjamin de Lyra, Brazilian mathematician (Recife 23 November 1927 – São Paulo 21 July 1974) Proved the existence of a minimal subcomplex of the cubical singular complex of a topological space (1954) Proved some theorems characterizing spaces having the homotopy type of locally finite or finite polyhedral (1960) Enunciated theorem of de Lyra On spaces of the same homotopy type as polyhedra.
