High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Robert Adrain (30 September 1775 - 10 August 1843) was a scientist and mathematician, considered one of the most brilliant mathematical minds of the time in America. He was born in Carrickfergus, Ireland, but left Ireland after the failure of the uprising of the United Irishmen in 1798 and moved to Princeton, New Jersey. He taught mathematics at various schools in the United States. He was president of the York County Academy in York, Pennsylvania, from 1801 to 1805.He is chiefly remembered for his formulation of the method of least squares, published in 1808. Adrain certainly did not know of the work of C.F. Gauss on least squares (published 1809), although it is possible that he had read A.M. Legendre's article on the topic (published 1804). ...

Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Sir William Rowan Hamilton (4 août 1805 - 2 septembre 1865) est un mathématicien, physicien et astronome irlandais. Il est connu pour sa découverte des quaternions, mais il contribua aussi au développement de l'optique, de la dynamique et de l'algèbre. Ses recherches se révélèrent importantes pour le développement de la mécanique quantique. Les travaux mathématiques de Hamilton incluent l'étude de l'optique géométrique, l'adaptation des méthodes dynamiques aux systèmes optiques, l'application des quaternions et des vecteurs aux problèmes de mécanique et géométriques, les possibilités de résolution des équations polynomiales, notamment l'équation générale du cinquième degré, les opérateurs linéaires, dont il prouve un résultat concernant ces opérateurs dans l'espace des quaternions et qui est un cas spécial du théorème de Cayley-Hamilton. Hamilton est né à Dublin, son père est Archibald Hamilton. Une des branches de la famille écossaise auquel il appartient s'était installée dans le nord de l'Irlande au temps de Jacques I d'Écosse, ce qui a parfois donné l'impression que Hamilton était écossais. Hamilton est éduqué par James Hamilton, un prêtre anglican qui était son oncle. Enfant prodige ; son génie se révéla tout d'abord dans sa capacité à apprendre les langues. À l'âge de 7 ans, il a déjà fait des progrès considérables en hébreu et, à l'âge de 13 ans, sous la direction de son oncle qui est linguiste, il a déjà acquis autant de langues qu'il a d'années. Ces langues étaien...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
