He used his time in Bourg to research mathematics, producing Considérations sur la théorie mathématique de jeu ( 1802 ; “ Considerations on the Mathematical Theory of Games ”), a treatise on mathematical probability that he sent to the Paris Academy of Sciences in 1803.

When Martin Gardner retired from writing his " Mathematical Games " column for Scientific American magazine, Hofstadter succeeded him in 1981 – 1983 with a column entitled Metamagical Themas ( an anagram of " Mathematical Games ").

The game made its first public appearance in the October 1970 issue of Scientific American, in Martin Gardner's " Mathematical Games " column.

In the June 1968 edition of Scientific American, Martin Gardner described in his " Mathematical Games " column a game by C. L. Baker that is similar to FreeCell, except that cards on the tableau are built by suit rather than by alternate colors.

In March of the following year, Martin Gardner wrote about the Ulam spiral in his Mathematical Games column ; the Ulam spiral featured on the front cover of the issue of Scientific American in which the column appeared.

Flexagons were introduced to the general public by the recreational mathematician Martin Gardner, writing in 1956 in his inaugural " Mathematical Games " column for Scientific American magazine.

The title is an example of wordplay: it is an anagram of Mathematical Games, the title of Martin Gardner's column that Hofstadter's column succeeded in Scientific American.

The rules for the game, and a sample track game was published in Car and Driver magazine, in July 1973 ( page 65 ), and again by Martin Gardner in 1983 in his " Mathematical Games " column in Scientific American.

The number gained a degree of popular attention when Martin Gardner described it in the " Mathematical Games " section of Scientific American in November 1977, writing that, " In an unpublished proof, Graham has recently established ... a bound so vast that it holds the record for the largest number ever used in a serious mathematical proof.

Many of the puzzles are well known because they were discussed by Martin Gardner in his " Mathematical Games " column in Scientific American.

It was described by Martin Gardner in his Scientific American column Mathematical Games in 1967.

The problem was introduced to a wide mathematical audience by Martin Gardner in his October 1960 Mathematical Games column.

In a 1975 April Fool article in Scientific American magazine, " Mathematical Games " columnist Martin Gardner made the ( hoax ) claim that the number was in fact an integer, and that the Indian mathematical genius Srinivasa Ramanujan had predicted it — hence its name.

The problem appeared in Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games column in Scientific American.

Among Whewell's other works — too numerous to mention — were popular writings such as the third Bridgewater Treatise Astronomy and General Physics considered with reference to Natural Theology ( 1833 ), and the essay, Of the Plurality of Worlds ( 1853 ), in which he argued against the probability of life on other planets, and also the Platonic Dialogues for English Readers ( 1850 – 1861 ), the Lectures on the History of Moral Philosophy in England ( 1852 ), the essay, Of a Liberal Education in General, with particular reference to the Leading Studies of the University of Cambridge ( 1845 ), the important edition and abridged translation of Hugo Grotius, De jure belli ac pacis ( 1853 ), and the edition of the Mathematical Works of Isaac Barrow ( 1860 ).

He also published some of his early papers in the American Mathematical Society due to his contact with American mathematicians in Paris — particularly Edwin Wilson.

In July 2008 he published a study of the mathematical work of Lewis Carroll, the creator of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass — Lewis Carroll in Numberland: His Fantastical Mathematical Logical Life.

In 1827 Ampère published his magnum opus, Mémoire sur la théorie mathématique des phénomènes électrodynamiques uniquement déduite de l ’ experience ( Memoir on the Mathematical Theory of Electrodynamic Phenomena, Uniquely Deduced from Experience ), the work that coined the name of his new science, electrodynamics, and became known ever after as its founding treatise.
