Extractions: Sophie Germain was born in an era of revolution. In the year of her birth, the American Revolution began. Thirteen years later the French Revolution began in her own country. In many ways Sophie embodied the spirit of revolution into which she was born. She was a middle class female who went against the wishes of her family and the social prejudices of the time to become a highly recognized mathematician. Like the member of a revolution, her life was full of perseverance and hard work. It took a long time for her to be recognized and appreciated for her contributions to the field of mathematics, but she did not give up. Even today, it is felt that she was never given as much credit as she was due for the contributions she made in number theory and mathematical physics because she was a woman. Sophie Germain was born in Paris on April 1, 1776 to Ambroise-Francois and Marie Germain. Her family was quite wealthy. Her father was a merchant and later became a director of the Bank of France. Sophie's interest in mathematics began during the French Revolution when she was 13 years old and confined to her home due to the danger caused by revolts in Paris. She spent a great deal of time in her father's library, and one day she ran across a book in which the legend of Archimede's death was recounted. Legend has it that "during the invasion of his city by the Romans Archimedes was so engrossed in the study of a geometric figure in the sand that he failed to respond to the questioning of a Roman soldier. As a result he was speared to death" (Perl 64). This sparked Sophie's interest. If someone could be so engrossed in a problem as to ignore a soldier and then die for it, the subject must be interesting! Thus she began her study of mathematics.

Extractions: Contenido Anterior Sophie Germain Nacida en París, el 1ro. de abril de 1876 y criada durante los años de turbulencia en Francia. Sus padres se opusieron a que estudiara matemáticas hasta que no tuvieron opción y lo aceptaron. Germain no podia ir a la escuela porque no aceptaban mujeres; pero se las arreglaba para recibir apuntes de los profesores. A ella le atrajo el análisis de Lagrange y bajo un nombre ficticio le escribió una composición. A éste le impresionó tanto, que averiguó quien era y fué a su casa a decirle cuán impresionado estaba. Esto le sirvió a Germain para tener el coraje de seguir estudiando matemáticas. Como resultado de un libro escrito por Gauss, Germain le escribió usando el mismo pseudónimo que habia usado con Lagrange. Gauss se interesó tanto en sus observaciones, que mantuvieron correspondencia por varios años. En 1807, Gauss se enteró del verdadero nombre de Germain. Ella temía que a Gauss le sucediera algo y envió unas tropas a la casa de él para asegurarse de que estuviera bíen. Cuando los soldados le hablaron de Germain, él les dijo que no la conocia. Luego, por cartas se esclareció la situación. Germain trabajó en el problema de la ley matemática de vibraciones de superficies elásticas. En 1811 sometió un trabajo al respecto a la Academia Francesa de las Ciencias (anónimamente); pero fue criticada por la falta de precisión al pasar de una linea a una superficie. En 1813 sometió otro trabajo del mismo tema y en 1816 ganó el primer lugar situándola entre los mejores matemáticos. Esto hizo que la aceptaran entre los círculos de matemáticos. Continuó escribiendo sobre distintos problemas malemáticos y continuó intercambiando correspondencia con Gauss. Este pidió a la Universidad de Göttingen que le dieran el grado de doctora; pero el 26 de junio de 1831 murió, antes de poder recibir el grado.

Extractions: Back to the Table of Contents Biographies of Mathematicians - Germain Introduction There were probably at the most only several women during the French Revolution that literally based their life on mathematics. One of these leading roles was played by a very young women (girl), by the name of Marie-Sophie Germain. Similar to many other great mathematicians, she faced countless difficulties, while contributing to various areas. Aside of all her great works, she was never quite given credit to and mostly because of one specific reason, she was a women. Germain contributed most of her work to the areas of number theory, acoustics and elasticity. Biography Marie-Sophie Germain was born on April 1, 1776 in Paris, France. Her father was a quite wealthy silk merchant by the name of Ambriose-Francois who was married to Marie-Madelaine Gruguelin. He later on became a director of the Bank of France and Sophie's home was frequently used as the meeting place for the community that was interested in liberal reforms. It was the death of Archimedes that inspired Germain to study mathematics.

Sophie Germain Marie-Sophie Germain April 1 June 27 ) was a French mathematician , and one of the most important female mathematicians of all time. Germain was born to a middle-class merchant family in Paris France , and began studying mathematics at age thirteen, despite her parents' strong attempts to dissuade her from engaging in a 'men's profession'. Several years later, she managed to get some lecture notes from several courses at cole Polytechnique , a school which did not admit women. Germain was particularly interested in Joseph-Louis Lagrange 's teachings and submitted papers and assignments under the pseudonym "Monsieur Le Blanc", a former student of Lagrange's. Lagrange was so impressed by the paper that he asked to meet Le Blanc, and Germain was forced to reveal her identity to him. Lagrange apparently considered her a talented mathematician and became her mentor. In she began corresponding with Carl Friedrich Gauss , again using her pseudonym, after reading his famous Disquisitiones Arithmeticae ). He eventually learned her true identity in

Extractions: Sophie Germain offered much to the mathematical world in the areas of number theory and elasticity theory. That same world would offer her, a middle class woman in the time of the French revolution, very little in return. The Bastille fell when Sophie was only 13. She was from a middle class family of merchants that protected her through the revolution. As a result, she spent many hours in her father's library where she learned of the story of Archimedes. She was fascinated with his passion for geometry and immediately scoured the library for every book on the subject. From the onset her parents opposed her interest. They deemed her enthusiasm so inappropriate for a young woman that they denied her heat and light to prevent her from studying. They even confiscated her clothing at night, but she wrapped herself in blankets and used a hidden supply of candles to read from. Such was her passion that her parents finally conceded. She continued, tutorless. In 1794 Ecole Polytechnique opened, and as no women were allowed, she acquired the notes from the classes to learn from. At the end of one term she offered some observations that she made to Lagrange under the name of M. LeBlanc. He was impressed, found her, and praised her talents. In 1801 Carl Freidrich Gauss presented a complicated treatise on number theory

Extractions: etc. Although these equations appear similar to Pythagorass equation, Fermats Last Theorem claims that these equations have no solutions. The difficulty in proving that this is the case revolves around the fact that there are an infinite number of equations, and an infinite number of possible values for x, y, and z, and hence the proof has to check that there does not exist a solution within this infinity of infinities. Nonetheless Fermat claimed he had a proof. The proof was never written down and ever since the challenge has been to rediscover the proof of Fermats Last Theorem.
