Extractions: Alexandre-Thophile Vandermonde 28 February 1 January ) was a French musician and chemist who worked with Bezout and Lavoisier ; his name is now principally associated with determinant theory in mathematics . He was born in Paris , and died there. He was a violinist, and became engaged with mathematics only around 1770. In Mmoire sur la rsolution des quations (1771) he reported on symmetric functions and solution of cyclotomic polynomials ; this paper anticipated later Galois theory . In Remarques sur des problmes de situation (1771) he studied knight's tours Mmoire sur des irrationnelles de diffrens ordres avec une application au cercle (1772) was on combinatorics , and Mmoire sur l'limination (1772) on the foundations of determinant theory. These papers were presented to the Acadmie des Sciences , and constitute all his published mathematical work. The Vandermonde determinant does not make an explicit appearance. A special class of matrices , the Vandermonde matrices are named after him, as is an elementary fact of combinatorics, Vandermonde's identity .

Extractions: Alexandre-Theophile Vandermonde's father was a medical doctor who was originally from Landrices but had spent 12 years in the Orient. He had set up a medical practice in Paris and was working there as a doctor when his son Alexandre-Théophile was born. He did not encourage his son to follow a medical profession but rather encouraged him to take up a career in music. Certainly he was not interested in mathematics when he was young. Alexandre-Théophile was awarded his bachelier on 7 September 1755 and his licencie on 7 September 1757. In 1778 Vandermonde presented the first of a two part work on the theory of music to the Académie des Sciences. The second part was presented two years later. This work Système d'harmonie applicable à l'état actuel de la musique did not propose a mathematical theory of music as one might have expected from someone who was an expert in both fields. On the contrary the aim of the work was to put forward the idea that musicians should ignore all theory of music and rely solely on their trained ears when judging music. As one might expect this proved a controversial work with musicians being sharply divided as to whether they agreed with Vandermonde or not. Despite the opposition of many musicians at first, the ideas put forward by Vandermonde gained favour over the years and by the beginning of the nineteenth century the Académie des Sciences had moved music from the mathematical area to the arts area. It is worth repeating that it is strange that a mathematician of the highest rank should have argued against music as a mathematical art, a position it had held since the days of ancient Greece.

Extractions: Version for printing Alexandre-Theophile Vandermonde His first love was music and his instrument was the violin. He pursued a music career and he only turned to mathematics when he was 35 years old. It was Fontaine des Bertins whose enthusiasm for mathematics rubbed off on Vandermonde. Perhaps surprisingly he was elected to the in 1771 with little evidence of his mathematical genius other than his first paper which, although he was not a member at the time, was read to the Academy in November 1770. However, he did make quite a remarkable contribution to mathematics in this paper and three further papers which he presented to the Academy between 1771 and 1772. These four papers represent his total mathematical output and we will discuss their content below together with the views of a number of historians of mathematics on his contribution. Vandermonde's election to the did motivate him to work hard for the Academy and to publish other works on science and music. In 1777 he published the results of experiments he had carried out with

The journal appearance is a different setting and does not include the plates with their explanatory text. ¶ This important memoir, superceding the work of Réamur and Bergman, analyses the compostion and properties of cast iron, steel and wrought iron. The authors identifty cast iron as a compound of iron, oxygen and carbon; steel as iron and carbon; and wrought iron as, theoretically, pure iron. They then demonstrate how their new results would enable technicians to perfect their art. Literature: René Taton
