Extractions: Mathematician Report Index Below is a list of mathematicians. You may choose from this list or report on a mathematician not listed here. In either case, you must discuss with me the mathematician you have chosen prior to starting your report. No two students may write a report on the same mathematician. I would advise you to go to the library before choosing your topic as there might not be much information on the mathematician you have chosen. Also, you should determine the topic early in the term so that you can "lock-in" your report topic!! The report must include: 1. The name of the mathematician. 2. The years the mathematician was alive. 3. A biography. 4. The mathematician's major contribution(s) to mathematics and an explanation of the importance. 5. A historical perspective during the time the mathematician was alive.

Extractions: 908 AD Ibrahim ibn Sinan was born in Bagdad (now located in Iraq) in 908 AD. He was the grandson of Thabit ibn Qurra who translated many Greek astronomical and mathematical works into Arabic. Ibrahim ibn Sinan studied geometry including tangents to circles, and the geometry of shadows, and the motion of the Sun. He is considered the first Arab mathematician to think about mathematical philosophy. He constructed an ellipse, parabola and hyperbola in On drawing the three conic sections . Later in the manuscript he proves that the area of a segment of a parabola is four-thirds the area of the inscribed triangle. Another work On the motions of the sun deals with the motion of the solar apogee, and has an analysis of the observations underlying Ptolemy's solar theory. Author: Charles DeBoer References:

Extractions: Arab Contributions Within a century of Muhammad's conquest of Mecca, Islamic armies conquered lands from northern Africa, southern Europe, through the Middle East and east up to India. Within a century of that the Caliphate split up into several parts. The eastern segment, under the Abbasid caliphs, became a center of growth, of luxury, and of peace. In 766 the caliph al-Mansur founded his capitol in Baghdad and the caliph Harun al-Rashid, established a library. The stage was set for his successor, Al-Ma'mum. In the 9 century Al-Ma'mum established Baghdad as the new center of wisdom and learning. He establihed a research institute, the Bayt al-Hikma (House of Wisdom), which would last more than 200 years. Al-Ma'mum was responsible for a large scale translation project of as many ancient works as could be found. Greek manuscripts were obtained through treaties. By the end of the century, the major works of the Greeks had been translated. In addition, they learned the mathematics of the Babylonnians and the Hindus. What follows is a brief introduction to a few of the more prominent Arab mathematicians, and a sample of their work

http://www.stormloader.com/ajy/amicable.html

Extractions: Amicable pairs of numbers have the property that each of the two numbers is the sum of the proper divisors of the other. 220 and 284 form the smallest amicable pair. The proper divisors of 220 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55, and 110, which sum to 284. The proper divisors of 284 are 1, 2, 4, 71, and 142, which total 220. This pair has been known to be amicable at least since the time of Pythagoras . The second smallest pair, 1184 and 1210, was discovered as recently as 1866 by Nicolo Paganini when he was a 16-year-old schoolboy (although this pair might have been known to the Arabs). Thabit ibn Qurra , a brilliant Arab mathematician, astronomer and physician, described in his Book on the Determination of Amicable Numbers Euclid 's rule for perfect numbers , and gave a formula for obtaining amicable pairs. This formula involves finding a number n, greater than 1, that makes these three expressions all prime

Extractions: Ce paradoxe, connu sous le nom de paradoxe de la dichotomie, a longtemps perturbé les scientifiques grecs. En effet, ceux-ci, suivant le maître Pythagore (VIè siècle avant JC), pensaient que toute grandeur physique pouvait être représentée par un entier naturel (l'ensemble des naturels étant noté N) ou par un nombre formé par le quotient de deux naturels, ou nombre rationnel (l'ensemble des rationnels étant noté Q). On a déjà un aperçu de la "politique" grecque dans le nom donné aux fractions de naturels : les nombres rationnels, "ceux qui ont une raison". Ce paradoxe déboucha sur une crise profonde au sein des mathématiciens grecs, crise qui freina considérablement le développement des théories de la numération en Grèce. A celà s'ajoute une grande "découverte", faite, on suppose, par un disciple de Pythagore : celui de l'incommensurabilité de la diagonale du carré. Dessinez un carré de côté 1 : celà est aisément faisable, même en utilisant les simples règle non graduée et compas, seuls outils que les Pythagoriciens acceptaient en géométrie. Ensuite, tracez une de ses diagonales : sa longueur est alors égale à la racine carrée de 2.

For a thousand years he has retained his original renown as one of the greatest thinkers and medical scholars in history. His most important medical works are the Qanun (Canon) and a treatise on Cardiac drugs. The 'Qanun fi-l-Tibb' is an immense encyclopedia of medicine. It contains some of the most illuminating thoughts pertaining to distinction of mediastinitis from pleurisy; contagious nature of phthisis; distribution of diseases by water and soil; careful description of skin troubles; of sexual diseases and perversions; of nervous ailments."
