They certainly have some justification in this claim since Lagrange was born in Turin and baptised in the name of Giuseppe Lodovico Lagrangia. Lagrange's father was Giuseppe Francesco Lodovico Lagrangia who was Treasurer of the Office of Public Works and Fortifications in Turin, while his mother Teresa Grosso was the only daughter of a medical doctor from Cambiano near Turin. Lagrange was the eldest of their 11 children but one of only two to live to adulthood. Turin had been the capital of the duchy of Savoy, but became the capital of the kingdom of Sardinia in 1720, sixteen years before Lagrange's birth. Lagrange's family had French connections on his father's side, his great-grandfather being a French cavalry captain who left France to work for the Duke of Savoy. Lagrange always leant towards his French ancestry, for as a youth he would sign himself Lodovico LaGrange or Luigi Lagrange, using the French form of his family name. Despite the fact that Lagrange's father held a position of some importance in the service of the king of Sardinia, the family were not wealthy since Lagrange's father had lost large sums of money in unsuccessful financial speculation. A career as a lawyer was planned out for Lagrange by his father, and certainly Lagrange seems to have accepted this willingly. He studied at the College of Turin and his favourite subject was classical Latin. At first he had no great enthusiasm for mathematics, finding Greek geometry rather dull.

Joseph Louis Lagrange (1736 - 1813) From `A Short Account of the History of Mathematics' (4th edition, 1908) by W. W. Rouse Ball. Joseph Louis Lagrange , the greatest mathematician of the eighteenth century, was born at Turin on January 25, 1736, and died at Paris on April 10, 1813. His father, who had charge of the Sardinian military chest, was of good social position and wealthy, but before his son grew up he had lost most of his property in speculations, and young Lagrange had to rely for his position on his own abilities. He was educated at the college of Turin, but it was not until he was seventeen that he shewed any taste for mathematics - his interest in the subject being first excited by a memoir by Halley across which he came by accident. Alone and unaided he threw himself into mathematical studies; at the end of a year's incessant toil he was already an accomplished mathematician, and was made a lecturer in the artillery school. The first fruit of Lagrange's labours here was his letter, written when he was still only nineteen, to Euler, in which he solved the isoperimetrical problem which for more than half a century had been a subject of discussion. To effect the solution (in which he sought to determine the form of a function so that a formula in which it entered should satisfy a certain condition) he enunciated the principles of the calculus of variations. Euler recognized the generality of the method adopted, and its superiority to that used by himself; and with rare courtesy he withheld a paper he had previously written, which covered some of the same ground, in order that the young Italian might have time to complete his work, and claim the undisputed invention of the new calculus. The name of this branch of analysis was suggested by Euler. This memoir at once placed Lagrange in the front rank of mathematicians then living.

Lagrange, Joseph Louis de. Lagrange served as professor of geometry at the Royal Artillery School in Turin (1755-66) and helped to found the Royal Academy of Science there in 1757. Because of overwork and poor pay, his health suffered, leaving him with a weakened constitution for life. When Leonhard Euler quit the Berlin Academy of Science, Lagrange succeeded him as director of the mathematical section in 1766. In 1787 he left Berlin to become a member of the Paris Academy of Science, where he remained (through its new form as the National Institute from 1795) for the rest of his career. A diplomatic and amenable man, Lagrange survived the French Revolution. During the 1790s he worked on the metric system and advocated a decimal base. He also taught at the Ecole Polytechnique, which he helped to found. Napoleon named him to the Legion of Honor and Count of the Empire in 1808.

Before the age of 20 he was professor of geometry at the royal artillery school at Turin. With his pupils he organized (1759) a society from which the Turin Academy of Sciences developed. Among his early successes were his method of solving isoperimetrical problems, on which the calculus of variations is based in part; his researches on the nature and propagation of sound and on the vibration of strings; and his studies on the libration of the moon and on the satellites of Jupiter. On the recommendation of Euler and D'Alembert, Frederick the Great invited him (1766) to succeed Euler as director of mathematics at the Berlin Academy of Sciences. The memoirs of the academy were enriched by his distinguished treatises, and during this time he wrote his chief work, (1797) and The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia

Milwaukee School of Engg HOLISTIC NUMERICAL METHODS INSTITUTE Committed to bringing numerical methods to undergraduates Joseph Louis Lagrange Born in Turin, Italy on January 25, 1736, to Giuseppe Francesco Lodovico Lagrangia and Teresa Grosso, Joseph Louis Lagrange would become a mathematical prodigy in his lifetime. Although Lagrange was the eldest of eleven children, he was only one of two that would survive to adulthood. Growing up, Lagrange attended the College of Turin, pursuing a career as a lawyer planned by his father. Lagrange's first mathematic encounter was Greek geometry-a subject he found quite boring. After reading Edmond Halley's 1693 paper on the use of algebra in optics and being exposed to the excellent physics teaching of Beccaria, Lagrange decided to take up his career in mathematics. Lagrange's first publication was put out on July 23, 1754, on the binomial theorem. Lagrange discovered soon after that Bernoulli and Leibniz were already addressing the issue. To avoid being accused of using the work of others, he began studying the tautochrone, "the curve on which a weighted particle will always arrive at a fixed point in the same time independent of its initial position." After sending the results of his work on August 12, 1755, Euler's response, sent on September 6, stated how impressed he was with Lagrange's new ideas on maxima and minima. Thus, Lagrange had made his first splash in the lake of mathematics.

This was published (1788) in Paris, where he had been called by Louis XVI in 1787. In 1793 he became president of the commission on weights and measures; he was influential in causing the adoption of the decimal base for the metric system. A professor at the Ecole polytechnique from 1797, he developed the use in teaching of the analytic method that he so skillfully employed in his research. He wrote ThEorie des fonctions analytiques (1797) and LeCons sur le calcul des fonctions (1806), both based on his lectures. Under Napoleon, Lagrange was made senator and count; he is buried in the PanthEon. His contributions to the development of mathematics also include the application of differential calculus to the theory of probabilities and notable work on the solution of equations. In astronomy he is known for his calculations of the motions of planets.

Return to The Worlds of David Darling INDEX LATEST NEWS ARCHIVE ... Z entire Web this site Lagrange, Joseph Louis de (1736-1813) A French (originally Italian, Giuseppe Luigi Lagrangia; born in Turin, moved to Paris and became a French citizen) mathematician and astronomer who made important contributions to classical and celestial mechanics and to number theory . By his mid-twenties he was recognized as one of the greatest living mathematicians because of his papers on wave propagation and the maxima and minima of curves. His prodigious output included his textbook Mécanique analytique (1788), the basis for all later work in this field. He studied the three-body problem for the Earth, Sun, and Moon (1764) and the movement of Jupiter’s satellites (1766), and in 1772 found the special-case solutions to this problem that are now known as Lagrangian points . His other remarkable discoveries include that of the Lagrangian, a differential operator characterizing a system's physical state. Under Napoleon, Lagrange was made both a senator and a count; he is buried in the Panthéon.
