De Morgan, Augustus British mathematician who initiated and developed a theory of relations in logic. He devised a symbolism that could express such notions as the contradictory, the converse, and the transitivity of a relation, as well as the union of two relations. De Morgan was born in Madura (now Madurai), Tamil Nadu, India, and studied at Cambridge. He was the first professor of mathematics at University College, London, 1828-58. In his books Formal Logic 1847 and Syllabus of a Proposed System of Logic, De Morgan developed a logic of noun expressions. He also extended his syllogistic vocabulary using definitions, giving rise to new kinds of inferences, both direct (involving one premise) and indirect (involving two premises). He was thus able to work out purely structural rules for transforming a premise or pair of premises into a valid conclusion.

"De Morgan's conception of probability was largely derived from Laplace, whose ideas (and errors) he was thus instrumental in propagating among his nineteenth-century successors. His method of approach was to construe the theory as an extension of formal logic, that is, as an investigation of the rules whereby propositions not absolutely certain affect the certainty of other propositions with which they are connected." P.L. Heath in "The Encyclopedia of Philosophy". " .... the theory of probabilities, I take to be the unknown God which the schoolmen ignorantly worshipped." (De Morgan in "Formal Logic", 1847).

Dayman to Gutch Back Dayman, Joseph Lieutenant.1f Dean, Edward, of Macclesfield. 1 tidal letter from. de Morgan, Augustus (1806-1871), mathematician, was born at Madura, in the Madras presidency. De Morgan was sent to various schools. He had a gift for drawing caricatures, and read algebra ‘like a novel.’ He pricked out equations on the school-pew, some of which remained after his death, instead of listening to the sermon. In February 1823 he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, as a ‘bye-term man.’ He made many friends at college, including his teachers, Whewell and Peacock. He belonged to a musical society called the ‘Camus’ (i.e. Cambridge Amateur Musical Union Society), and was a skilful flute-player. After some thoughts of medicine he resolved to go to the bar, and entered Lincoln's Inn. The university of London, which afterwards became University College, was just being started. De Morgan found law unpalatable, and on 23 Feb. 1828 was unanimously elected the first professor of mathematics, although the youngest applicant, on the strength of very high testimonials from Peacock, Airy, and other Cambridge authorities. He gave his introductory lecture, ‘On the Study of Mathematics,’ 5 Nov. 1828. From the first De Morgan was a most energetic worker. In May 1828 he was elected a fellow of the Astronomical Society, and in 1830 was placed on the council. He became a member of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, founded by Brougham and others in 1826. He became a member of the committee in 1843. The society was dissolved in 1846. In the vacation of 1837 De Morgan married Sophia Elizabeth Frend, and settled at 69 Gower Street. His lectures at University College attracted many men, afterwards distinguished. He had the power of clear exposition. He never became a fellow of the Royal Society, and held that it was too much open to social influences to be thoroughly efficient as a working institution. His dislike to honorary titles led him to refuse the offer of the LL.D. degree from Edinburgh. For many years he did his best to promote the adoption of a decimal coinage.
