    Extractions: Around 300 BC Euclid wrote "The Elements", which is a book that is now one of the most famous books ever written and is taught to students in schools. Euclid stated five postulates on which he based all his theorems: To draw a straight line from any point to any other. To produce a finite straight line continuously in a straight line. To describe a circle with any centre and distance. That all right angles are equal to each other. (Hyperbolic axiom). If P is any point and AB is any straight line not passing through P (even if produced), then through P there are straight lines YPZ and WPX such that: (1) YPX is not a single straight line. (2) YPZ and WPX are each parallels to AB. (3) no straight line through P entering ^ZPX is parallel to AB. Non-Euclidean Geometry was born when mathematicians attempted to prove that #5 differs from #1-4. All attempts to prove this failed, since in fact the parallel postulate is independent of #1-4. It was not until the middle of the 19th century that Bolyai and Lobachevsky (separately) showed that it is actually possible to construct a consistent geometry in which the parallel postulate does not prove to be true. In this geometry, there are infinitely many non-intersecting lines through a given point. It is called hyperbolic geometry, or non-Euclidean.

    Extractions: D ecember 1, 1992 marks the bicentennial of birth of the great mathematician, founder of non- Euclidean geometry Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky. H is discovery was a turning point in the development of geometrical ideas, mathematical logics and thinking of the 19-th century. New geometry created by Lobachevsky affected essentially the following course of human progress. There have been few discoveries in the history of world science that could be compared with that of Lobachevsky's in its daring and impact. Not only had he discovered non-Euclidean geometry but also during his whole life he persistently deepened and increased its ideas having made his geometry so perfect as Euclidean one was thanks to the works of many scientists for many centuries. It is not accidental that Lobachevsky is compared with Columbus, who discovered a new continent to the world, or with Copernicus, who made a great change in concept of the Universe. F amous soviet geometrician V. F. Kagan noticed in this regard that it would be easier to stop the Sun and to move the Earth than to admit that the sum of angles in a triagle is less than two right ones. Nizhni Novgorod.

Kazan University scholars have made a great contribution in the development of natural sciences as well as the humanities. The names of the outstanding Tatar scholars of the past who represented its schools of geography and ethnography include Kh.Fayezkhanov, I.Khalfin and K.Nasyri. Researchers who brought fame to Kazan University in the post-Second World War years were E.Zavoisky (physics), A.Arbuzov and G.Kamai (chemistry), N.Chetaev (engineering) and N.Chebotarev (mathematics). Among the notable figures who studied at Kazan University were writers Leo Tolstoy, S.Aksakov and A.Melnikov-Pechersky, composer Balakirev, and politician V.Lenin. Today the University is continuing its important work in education and research. The oldest building of the University, with three classical portals along its white facade, was built in 1822 and included the old building of the First Boys' Gymnasium and the private residence of Prince Tenichev given to the University at the time of its founding. Between 1832 and 1841, under the supervision of the architect M.Korinfsky, the rest of the buildings of the university campus were constructed. The new buildings, which included the Anatomy Theatre, the Library, the Chemistry and Physics Laboratories and the Observatory, completed the University complex and gave it its neo-classical look. The building of the Chemistry Faculty was constructed in 1954 by the students themselves.

La madre de Nikolai Ivanovich se llamaba Praskovia Alexandrovna Lobachevskaya. Era una familia pobre y Nikolai Ivanovich era uno de sus tres hijos. El padre murio en el año 1800 cuando Ivanovich tenia siete años de edad. Su madre se trasladó con sus tres hijos a la ciudad de Kazan en la parte oeste de Rusia al borde de Siberia, Alli, en Kazan ,estudiaron en el Instituto de Enseñanza Media, gracias a una beca concedida por el gobierno. Nikolai Ivanovich ingresó en este Instituto en el año 1802. En 1807, Lobachevsky se graduó como bachiller y entró en la Universidad de Kazan como estudiante por libre. La Universidad del Estado, en Kazan, fue fundada en 1804,como resultado de una de las numerosas reformas llevadas a cabo por el emperador Alejandro I, abriéndose al año siguiente de su fundación, o sea dos años antes de que Lobachevsky consiguiera su graduación como Bachiller. Su primera intención fue estudiar medicina pero se inclinó por estudios científicos en los que no podían faltar las Matemáticas y la Física. Vinberg escribe En los primeros años, el ambiente del Departamento, era completamente favorable. Los estudiantes estaban llenos de entusiasmo. Estudiaban noche y día para compensar su falta de conocimientos. Los profesores, mayormente, invitados desde Alemania, se convirtieron en excelentes pedagogos, lo cual no era muy común. Lobachevsky tuvo un éxito notable en todos los cursos en los que participó.

    Extractions: Mathematics It is in mathematics that Russia and the Soviet Union have made the greatest contributions. Today the Soviet Union is a world power in mathematics. Indeed, Moscow probably has the greatest concentration of talent of any city. The main competitor is no doubt Paris, since mathematicians in the United States, another leader in mathematics in the last generation, are more widely distributed geographically. Unfortunately, the importance of the history of Russian and Soviet mathematics is poorly reflected in English-language sources. Not even Lobachevskii, the creator of non-Euclidean geometry, is the subject of a full biography in English. V.F. KaganÕs N. Lobachevsky and His Contribution to Science (Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House, 1957) is perhaps the source most often cited, but it is clearly inadequate. Alexander Vucinich has explored some of the nontechnical aspects of Lobachevskii's life in his "Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevskii: The Man Behind the First Non-Euclidean Geometry," Isis , 1962, 53:465-481. The best source on the circumstances of the creation of Lobachevskii geometry is a senior thesis by Gregory Crowe, "The Life and Work of Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky: A Study of the Factors Leading to the Discovery and Acceptance of the First Non-Euclidean Geometry" (Harvard Univ., 1986).

Friedrich der Große lud ihn 1766 (auf Empfehlung von Euler und Jean d'Alembert ) nach Berlin, wo er sich vielfältig betätigte: er beschäftigte sich mit dem Drei-Körper-Problem, Differentialgleichungen, Primzahlen, Stochastik sowie astronomischen Problemen. Außerdem inspirierte er mit seiner Abhandlung "Réflexions sur la résolution algébrique des équations" (1770) Evariste Galois zu seiner Gruppentheorie. Nach dem Tode Friedrichs ging Lagrange an den Hof von Ludwig XVI. nach Paris, wo er mit Mécanique analytique (1788) sein wohl wichtigstes Werk vollendete. Die Revolution von 1798 zwang Lagrange zur Mitarbeit in der Kommission zur Reform des Metrischen Systems, bei der Eröffnung der Ecole Polytechnique 1795 wurde er zusammen mit Gaspard Monge deren führender Professor für Mathematik.
