Short Biography Early Journey in Mathematics Bibliography Back to the front page Work Jimmy Iskandar David Eugene Smith says Clearly we are indebted to him for the following contributions to the development of calculus: He invented a convenient symbolism. He enunciated definite rules of procedure which he called algorithms. He realized and taught that quadratures constitute only a special case of integration; or, as he then called it, the inverse method of tangents. He represented transcendental lines by means of differential equations (619). However, only his first great achievement in mathematics, which coincides with point 3 above, will be discussed here by employing the same ideas but using a modern symbolism, especially the notations for differential and integral that he invented later (note: most of the calculations performed here are adopted from the Ranjan Roy's article, and to know more about this article, please consult the bibliography at the back). His first great achievement was the discovery of the series for , which took place in Paris in 1674 just after two years of his serious study in mathematics. The series for

1. From the Ulm Ptolemy edition to the first printed map of Brandenburg (1585) The Ulm edition of Ptolemy in 1482 (27 TA + 5 TM) can be regarded as a benchmark of modern cartography north of the Alps, just having pushed the change from "Tabulae antiquae" to "Tabulae modernae". The picture of Germany contained in the 1482 Ptolemy still mirrored the image of Antiquity showing rivers, mountains and tribes of that time, but not topographic elements of the 15th century. Nevertheless, by the spirit of the Renaissance obviously there had been created modern cartographic images already before 1482 which the printed maps of Central Europe published in 1491 respectively about 1492 and related to Nicolaus Cusanus respectively Francesco Roselli give evidence about. The common sources of both maps probably can be traced back to about 1437/39. Unlike Ptolemy's pictures, the maps linked with Cusanus and Roselli contain the first contemporary urban settlements in the Brandenburg area, even if only a few of them: we can find eight towns in the Cusanus map and additional two towns in the map of Roselli. Except one, all towns are situated at or rather close to one of the major rivers as Elbe, Havel or Oder which seem to reflect relations to the images of Germany contained in the Catalan Atlas dated 1375 and the portulan of Angelo Dalorto of 1339. Although both maps very probably are based on a set of common source elements the respective positions of the settlements as well as the hydrographic lines considerably differ from each other. Compared to the Cusanus map the toponyms of the Roselli map increased numerically, but decreased in spelling, whereas the hydrography of the Roselli map was clearly improved by leaving out a huge phantom river which the Cusanus map presented only.

The Eye of the Beholder: Africa Through Western Eyes Exploration of the Unknown The Ptolemaic World View 1482, Nicolaus Germanus Donnus, Ulm For many Europeans in the fifteenth century, the world looked much the same as it had to Ptolemy in the second century. His work on geography was the basis for most scholarship throughout the Middle Ages and into the Renaissance, before exploration and imprved technology began to provide better informaiton. This particular map is a reproduction of one from an edition of Ptolemy's Geography , published in 1482. In the Ptolemaic world view, Africa, Antarctica, and part of Asia were all joined, forming a large southern land mass marked simply "Terra Incognito." The exact shape of Africa was not known, and the northern part was depicted as much broader and squarer than it actually is. The source of the Nile River was also not known, and was not discovered until the late nineteenth century. But there were two major theories about it, both of which are shown here. The first was that the source lay in the Mountains of the Moon, a mountain range far to the south which had never been fully explored due to its challenging nature. The other main theory was that there were two lakes from which the Nile's two branches flowed. Over the next centuries, both of these theories were used by European mapmakers, and sometimes even combined, as in this map.

Valors dels intervals en comes de Mercator Concepte de temperament uniforme La idea de dividir l'octava en un nombre d'intervals iguals ja fou suggerida pel filòsof grec Aristoxenos. També Zarlino, conscient de les limitacions del seu sistema, va advocar per la mateixa idea. Els diversos temperaments no uniformes es poden considerar tempteigs que s'hi acostaven. La idea bàsica dels temperaments uniformes de les escales amb octava consisteix a establir intervals elementals de la forma 1/n on n és el nombre de notes de l'escala. Els intervals corresponents als diversos graus g d'una escala uniforme d' n graus són donats per l'expressió i = 2 g/n Si expressem els intervals en cents , el valor de l'interval elemental és 1200 / n i el de cada interval i c = 1200 · g / n El problema invers consisteix a calcular el grau g a partir de les altres variables. Aplicant logaritmes a la segona de les igualtats anteriors tenim log i = (g/n) log 2 d'on g = n ·log i / log 2 I partint de la quarta fórmula tenim que g = n · i c Cal notar que el valor de g ha d'ésser, per definició de grau d'una escala, un valor enter, de manera que els valors donats per les dues darreres fórmules s'han d'arrodonir, i d'aquest arrodoniment sorgeix un error. Òbviament una escala òptima serà aquella en què els intervals desitjats es produeixin amb el menor error possible.

Lecture 18 Barrow's proof of the fundamental theorem of calculus. Background: Calculus between Fermat and Newton. The historical order of the five essential steps in the development of Calculus are almost the exact opposite of the order in which we teach them:: Areas of figures and volumes of solids of revolution. Tangents to curves Power Series The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, both INT a b f'(x) dx = f(b) - f(a) and d/dx INT a x f(t) dt = f(x). Limits. We have seen how by 1650 fundamental discoveries were made in 1. and 2. by Descartes, Fermat, de Roberval and others we have not studied, including Cavalieri, Torricelli and Pascal. As for series, recall that Archimedes used a geometric series in his quadrature of the parabola. Geometric series in general were known to the Indians and other types of series were discovered by the English John Wallis (16161703), the DanishEnglish Nicolaus Mercator ( not Gerard, the cartographer) (16201687) and the Scots John Napier (15501617) and James Gregory (16381675).

Lecture 22: Colin MacLaurin and Brooke Taylor Background to the text Colin Maclaurin (16981746), Professor of Mathematics in Aberdeen at the age of 19 and in Edinburgh at 25 on the recommendation of Newton, was the foremost British mathematician in the generation following Newton. He did important work in Euclidean geometry, algebraic geometry (properties of curves described by rational functions in two or three variables), and of course series. The Maclaurin series itself had already been published by Brook Taylor, as well as James Gregory, Jean Bernoulli and James Stirling. However Maclaurin's method of obtaining the coefficients was original. Some of his most important work was in solutions of linear systems, including determinants and Cramer's Rule (before Cramer). We now consider his response to Berkeley, for which he wrote his Treatise on Fluxions . This is by far the most satisfactory of many attempts to refute Berkeley in the period 1740-1750. MacLaurin's aim is to demonstrate the validity of Newton's Method of Fluxions by the rigorous mathods of geometry. In fact, he tries to replace all arguments involving infinitesimals by the method of exhaustion. The extract we study concerns the fluxion of A when A is a uniformly flowing point with fluxion a. It relies on a previous section of the treatise in which he had shown
