Nissan ben Avraham Deliatitz (Hebrew: ניסן בן אברהם דעליאטיץ‎) was a 19th-century Russian rabbi and mathematician. He wrote Keneh Ḥokhmah, a manual of algebra in five parts, published in Vilna and Grodno in 1829.[1] The work received approbations from Rabbi David, the av beit din of Novhardok, and Rabbi Avraham Abele ben Avraham Shlomo Poswoler, an eminent scholar who headed the Vilna beit din.[2]
