Euclid

•Euclid also known as Euclid of Alexandria, was a Greek mathematician, often referred to as the "Father of Geometry“. His Elements is one of the most influential works in the history of mathematics. Euclid deduced the principles of what is now called Euclidean geometry from a small set of axioms.

•Carl Friedrich Gauss, the "Prince of Mathematics," exhibited his calculative powers when he corrected his father's arithmetic before the age of three. His genius was confirmed at the age of nineteen when he proved that the regular n-gon was constructible, for odd n, if and only if n is the product of distinct prime Fermat numbers.

The most significant contribution was introduction of zero to the mathematics with “NOTHING”.

in pure mathematics, made substantial contributions

to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite

series andcontinued fractions.

George Berkeley  (12 March 1685 – 14 January 1753), also known as Bishop Berkeley, was an Irish philosopher.

. Leonhard Paul Euler (pronounced [ˈɔʏlɐ] in German,  in English;15 April 1707 – 18 September 1783) was a pioneering Swiss mathematician andphysicist who spent most of his life in Russia and Germany.

death. In the middle, it shows his polyhedral

• Euler wrote some 866 Books, papers and letters of ground breaking mathematical content• He is the most prolific mathematician of all time• Even though he went blind in his later years, his mathematical productivity increased

. Joseph-Louis Lagrange, born Giuseppe Lodovico Lagrangia (25 January 1736 –10 April 1813) was an Italian mathematician and astronomer, who lived most of his life in Prussia and France, making significant contributions to all fields of analysis, to number theory, and to classical and celestial mechanics

• Lagrangian mechanics

• Between 1772 and 1788, Lagrange re-formulated Classical/Newtonian mechanics to simplify formulas and ease calculations. These mechanics are called Lagrangian mechanics.

• Worked on Celestial Mechanics and the solution of algebraic equations

. • Pierre-Simon, marquis de Laplace (23 March 1749 – 5 March 1827) was a French mathematician and astronomer whose work was pivotal to the development of mathematical astronomy and statistics.

• Laplace worked on Celestial Mechanics

•

• Prime numbers of this form are also known as the Fermat primes

•

• Gauss proved that a regular n-gon could be geometrically constructed if the number of sides were a product of distinct Fermat Primes times a power of two

Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier (March 21, 1768 – May 16, 1830) was a French mathematician and physicist best known for I

Augustin Louis Cauchy (21 August 1789 – 23 May 1857; was a French mathematician.

• Cauchy finally provided the Calculus with a rigorous foundation

• He introduced the epsilon – n and epsilon – delta definitions of limit.

• From these we can rigorously define continuous functions and differentiable functions

• The meat of our Real Analysis course

Évariste Galois October 25, 1811 – May 31, 1832) was a French mathematician

born in Bourg-la-Reine

• .

While still in his teens, he was able to determine a necessary and sufficient condition for a polynomial to be solvable by radicals, thereby solving a long-standing problem.

He died fighting a duel over a woman at age 21

Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann September 17, 1826 – July 20, 1866) was an extremely influential German mathematician who made important contributions to analysis and differential geometry, some of them paving the way for the later development of general relativity.

•Euler may be the most influential mathematician who ever lived he ranks #77 on Michael Hart's famous list of the Most Influential Persons in History. His notations and methods in many areas are in use to this day.

WHAT IS MATHEMATICS

• Mathematics is a subject that every student has to study at one time or another. Some love it but if we’re being honest, most people hate studying maths. The importance of maths for students has never been more prominent

• Maths is one of those subjects which you can easily spend hours studying but end up none the wiser. However much you have studied, if you can not solve the problem on day of the test, you are lost. 

mathematician• A mathematician is someone who uses

an extensive knowledge of mathematics in his or her work, typically to solve mathematical problems. • Mathematics is concerned with numbers,

data, quantity, structure, space , models and change.

Archimedes of Syracuse• Nationality: Greek

• Famous For: Greatest mathematician of antiquity.

• Archimedes provided principles and methods used in mathematics today.

•  He provided the exact numerical value of pi, developed a system for large numbers to be expressed, and the method of exhaustion.

THALES• Nationality: Greek

• Famous For: Father of science & Thales’ theorem.

• Thales used principles of mathematics, specifically geometry, to solve everyday problems.

• He is considered as the “first true mathematician”.

• His deductive reasoning principles are applied in geometry that is a product of “Thales’ Theorem.”

Shakuntala Devi• Shakuntala Devi (4 November 1929 – 21 April

2013) was an Indian writer andmental calculator, popularly known as the "human computer".

• A child prodigy, her talents eventually earned her a place in the 1982 edition of The Guinness Book of World Records.

Albert Einstein• Albert Einstein 14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955)

was a German-born theoretical physcis. • He is best known for his theory of relativity and

specifically mass–energy equivalence, expressed by the equation E = mc2.

• Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect.”

René Descartes• René Descartes (/ˈdeɪˌkɑrt/;[5] French: [ʁəne

dekaʁt]; Latinized: Renatus Cartesius; adjectival form: "Cartesian";[6] 31 March 1596 – 11 February 1650) was a French philosopher, mathematician, and scientist. Dubbed the father of modern philosophy, much of subsequent Western philosophy is a response to his writings,[7][8] which are studied closely to this day. He spent about 20 years of his life in the Dutch Republic.
