* Leonhard Euler, ( 1707 – 1783 ), Swiss mathematician and physicist

Paul Euler was a friend of the Bernoulli family — Johann Bernoulli, who was then regarded as Europe's foremost mathematician, would eventually be the most important influence on young Leonhard.

Euler was at this point studying theology, Greek, and Hebrew at his father's urging, in order to become a pastor, but Bernoulli convinced Paul Euler that Leonhard was destined to become a great mathematician.

The text says: 250 years from the birth of the great mathematician, academician Leonhard Euler.

It is named for the Dutch-Swiss mathematician and scientist Daniel Bernoulli, though it was previously understood by Leonhard Euler and others.

The Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler pioneered the modern approach to congruence in about 1750, when he explicitly introduced the idea of congruence modulo a number N.

The Earth's axis of rotation – and hence the position of the North Pole – was commonly believed to be fixed ( relative to the surface of the Earth ) until, in the 18th century, the mathematician Leonhard Euler predicted that the axis might " wobble " slightly.

On 7 June 1742, the German mathematician Christian Goldbach ( originally of Brandenburg-Prussia ) wrote a letter to Leonhard Euler ( letter XLIII ) in which he proposed the following conjecture:

In the 1780s, the great mathematician Leonhard Euler had conjectured that a 10 × 10 Graeco-Latin square could not exist and it was not until 1959 that one was actually constructed, refuting Euler.

* The mathematician Pierre Varignon, whose work would influence the young Leonhard Euler, earned his M. A.

It was developed by Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler and Italian mathematician Joseph Louis Lagrange in the 1750s.

Leonhard Euler is another innovative mathematician.

Other theorists, such as Leonhard Euler ( 1739 ), Hermann von Helmholtz ( 1863 / 1885 ), Arthur von Oettingen ( 1866 ), Hugo Riemann ( who should not be confused with the famous mathematician Bernhard Riemann ), and Christopher Longuet-Higgins ( 1978 ) have modeled pitch relationships using two-dimensional ( or higher-dimensional ) lattices, under the name of Tonnetz.

Finally, in 1767, with help of the mathematician Leonhard Euler he obtained the chairmanship of anatomy at the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences ( now Russian Academy of Sciences ).

In 1757, mathematician Leonhard Euler derived a formula that gives the maximum axial load that a long, slender, ideal column can carry without buckling.

2002 Euler is an asteroid named after the Swiss mathematician and physicist Leonhard Euler.

The Euler Medal, named after the 18th century mathematician Leonhard Euler, is an honor awarded annually by the Institute of Combinatorics and its Applications ( Canada ) to a member with a distinguished lifetime contribution to combinatorial research who are still active in research.

Euler is the only mathematician to have two numbers named after him: the immensely important Euler's Number in calculus, e, approximately equal to 2. 71828, and the Euler-Mascheroni Constant γ ( gamma ) sometimes referred to as just " Euler's constant ", approximately equal to 0. 57721.

Euler was aware of the work of Lord Brouncker, the first European mathematician to find a general solution of the equation, but apparently confused Brouncker with Pell.

Graham, prolific mathematician and industrious human being, has won many other prizes over the years ; he was one of the laureates of the prestigious Pólya Prize the first year it was ever awarded, and among the first to win the Euler Medal.

The Russian abacus was brought to France around 1820 by the mathematician Jean-Victor Poncelet, who served in Napoleon's army and had been a prisoner of war in Russia.

One of the earliest group automorphisms ( automorphism of a group, not simply a group of automorphisms of points ) was given by the Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton in 1856, in his Icosian Calculus, where he discovered an order two automorphism, writing:

Anthemius was also a capable mathematician.

André Weil (; 6 May 1906 – 6 August 1998 ) was an influential French mathematician of the 20th century, renowned for the breadth and quality of his research output, its influence on future work, and the elegance of his exposition.

Atle Selberg ( 14 June 1917 – 6 August 2007 ) was a Norwegian mathematician known for his work in analytic number theory, and in the theory of automorphic forms, in particular bringing them into relation with spectral theory.

( In the 1970s Ruelle and the Dutch mathematician Floris Takens produced a new model for turbulence, and it was Ruelle who invented the concept of a strange attractor in a dynamical system.

His death causes Paul to ask himself, " What use is it to him now that he was such a good mathematician in school?

The eleventh century Persian mathematician Omar Khayyám saw a strong relationship between geometry and algebra, and was moving in the right direction when he helped to close the gap between numerical and geometric algebra with his geometric solution of the general cubic equations, but the decisive step came later with Descartes.
