Moivre, Abraham de Born: May 26, 1667, Vitry, Fr. Died: Nov. 27, 1754, London French mathematician who was a pioneer in the development of analytic trigonometry and in the theory of probability. A French Huguenot, de Moivre was jailed as a Protestant upon the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. When he was released shortly thereafter, he fled to England. In London he became a close friend of Sir Isaac Newton and the astronomer Edmond Halley. De Moivre was elected to the Royal Society of London in 1697 and later to the Berlin and Paris academies. Despite his distinction as a mathematician, he never succeeded in securing a permanent position but eked out a precarious living by working as a tutor and a consultant on gambling and insurance. De Moivre expanded his paper De mensura sortis (written in 1711), which appeared in Philosophical Transactions , into The Doctrine of Chances (1718). Although the modern theory of probability had begun with the unpublished correspondence (1654) between Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat and the treatise De Ratiociniis in Ludo Aleae (1657; "On Ratiocination in Dice Games") by Christiaan Huygens of Holland, de Moivre's book greatly advanced probability study. The definition of statistical independence-namely, that the probability of a compound event composed of the intersection of statistically independent events is the product of the probabilities of its components-was first stated in de Moivre's
