82 Biographies History is the collective story of all people. Although each and every person has its part in history, the decisions and deeds of some tend to have more influence on the course of history than those of others. Some of these are known, like Churchill or Hitler, some of them are less known, like Turing or Heisenberg. Some we will never know, since the history we know of tends to focus on those events that are reported. Writing but small biographies for only a small collection of those who shaped this troubled times is a task we simply cannot fulfil. We hope that some of our readers feel up to the task of submitting biographies, or perhaps a small addendum to existing ones. Thanks! Order by Surname

The concept of Pi, an irrational number, has been calculated and explored throughout history from biblical times to the present. The Chinese calculated Pi and their value was used for a thousand years. One mathematician calculated pi
to 35 places and had it inscribed on his epitaph. With the advent of the computer, pi has been calculated to over six billion decimal places. Whether it is of historical significance, mathematical importance or a personal goal, pi has universal appeal.
Join us in an adventure of exploring the concept of pi.

BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY
Benjamin Banneker (1731-1806), an African American mathematician and amateur astronomer, calculated ephemerides for almanacs for the years 1792 through 1797 that were widely distributed. On Nov. 9, 1731, Benjamin Banneker was born in Baltimore County, Md. He was the son of an African slave named Robert, who had bought his own freedom, and of Mary Banneky, who was the daughter of an Englishwoman and a free African slave. Benjamin lived on his father's farm and attended a nearby Quaker country school for several seasons. He received no further formal education but enjoyed reading and taught himself literature, history, and mathematics. He worked as a tobacco planter for most of his life.

Carl Sagan's COSMOS is one of the most influential science programs ever made. Q. Does the moon have a dark side? A. The moon does have a far side which is impossible to see from the earth, but it doesn't mean that it's always dark. Each side of the moon is dark for no longer than 15 days at a time. Q. Where does sound come from? A. The air is always filled with sound waves. All things give off vibrations, but some have a low frequency which most cannot hear. The reason: it may take 3 minutes to make a single vibration. They may be caused by earthquakes and storms. Did You Know?

MATHEMATICS FOR MANY!
This page is designed to provide a resource of helpful links for student or teacher use. Some are specifically instructional, others provide interesting background information, and some are just fun. Many are sites themselves that lead to other links. While many of these sites are multi-purpose, I have categorized them below as a first attempt to save you valuable time. Before you start, you must realize that math people may be different. After all, it was Russian author Maxim Gorky who said about math: "One has to be able to count, if only so that at fifty, one does not marry a girl of twenty." Clearly, this statement does not conform to the "new math"! And some math teachers believe, as Simion Poisson, an 18th century French mathematician said:
"Life is good for only two things - discovering mathematics, and teaching mathematics." Enjoy.

Berwald
Ludwig Berwald (1883-1942). Born in Prague. Studied mathematics in Munich and became a full professor at the German Charles University in Prague. His scientific work is mainly in differential geometry, notably on Finsler geometry and on spray geometry, i.e. , path spaces. He died in Poland after having been deported by the German authorities just because he was Jewish.
Bortolotti
Enea Bortolotti (1896-1934). Born in Rome. After a break during the First World War, he received his Ph.D. in 1920 at Pisa; he was particularly influenced by L. Bianchi. After teaching at the medical school, he became professor of geometry at the Univerity of Cagliari in 1928. From there he moved on to the same position at the University of Florence in 1934. Despite his premature death, Bortolotti published about a hundred papers, notably in differential geometry.
Cartan
Elie Joseph Cartan (1869-1951). Born in Dolomien near Chamb©ry, France. Student at l‘‰cole Normale since 1888, he received his Ph.D. in 1894 with a thesis in which he completed Killing’s classification of semisimple algebras. He lectured at Montpellier (1894-1903), Lyon (1896-1903), Nancy (1903-1909), and Paris (1909-1940). His following work on the representation of semisimple Lie groups combines group theory, classical geometry, differential geometry, and topology. From 1904 he worked on differential equations and differential geometry, and developed a theory of moving frames (calculus of differential forms). He also contributed to the geometry of symmetric spaces and published on general relativity and its geometric extensions as well as on the theory of spinors. For his Collected Works, cf.
