Thomas Harriot on Combinations

Ian Maclean (2005)

Thomas Harriot (1560?–1621) is known today as an innovative mathematician and a natural philosopher with wide intellectual horizons. This paper will look at his interest in combinations in three contexts: language (anagrams), natural philosophy (the question of atomism) and mathematics (number theory), in order to assess where to situate him in respect of three current historiographical debates: 1) whether there existed in the late Renaissance two opposed mentalities, the occult and...

Poincaré’s early use of Analysis situs in nonlinear differential equation : variations around the theme of Kronecker’s integral

Jean Mawhin (2000)

Philosophia Scientiae

Similarity:

We analyze the chronological and conceptual evolution of the early use by Poincaré of tools, and in particular of in his qualitative theory of nonlinear differential equations. We show in this way that prior to his famous series of subsequent papers on Poincaré had already obtained or anticipated many important topological results.
