-
They developed a very elementary algebra, all to solve everyday problems. -
Quadratic equation with its solution
-
Introduces algebraic techniques for solving linear and quadratic equations. -
Mathematics was dominated by arithmetic and geometric calculations. They gave as solutions the equations of first and second degree. -
Introduced the square root symbol -
It was expressed as the cube roots using the segments by intersection of conic sections. -
The Indians developed the elementary rules to develop negative and positive numbers, They designed the decimal number system. -
Diophantus introduced an elementary algebraic sign to designate the unknown in equations. -
He studied Fourier series and in 1744 was the first to express an algebraic function by means of such a series. He found the summation formula now known as Euler-McLaurin. He proved Fermat's Last Theorem for n = 3, where he introduced calculus with algebraic numbers. -
He published the proof that every polynomial equation has at least one root in a complex plane. -
Creator of linear algebra, everything related to linear combination, linear independence, dimension, among others. -
Discovered quaternions
inevnton the name of vector. -
Developed the concept of multiplication which led to the development of matrices for linear transformation. -
Awarded the 2011 Abel Prize by the Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters in Norway in reference to his pioneering advances in topology, geometry and algebra.
