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.

It may be worth recalling that Lobachevsky was Rector of this University from 1827 to 1846, and also Chief Librarian for many years the old building of the library was built between 1825 and 1833 under his supervision. This famous library, which now bears his name, is now the pride of the site. The first award went to Sophus Lie in 1897.

73. Assassins' Guild News For Sunday 4th November Bobby Fett tried nikolai Ivanovich lobachevsky as well. One man survives a bomb, Oneman stays in the game, And nikolai Ivanovich lobachevsky is his name! Oy! http://www.srcf.ucam.org/assassins/archive/2001-mich/neN.html

It has been a morning of bombs, many of them. Anderson's Consultant left a bomb. I got into the office bright and early this morning, logged onto my iMac and found a message from a Very Important Person. The message informed me that there was a contract on a former client, and that if the contract could be fuflfilled that very morning, a bonus would be mine. Now bonuses are not to be scoffed at, especially those of the VIP, so I told my secretary to cancel all appointments for the morning whilst I decided on a plan of action. A cappuccino and cinnamon bagel in hand, it soon became apparent that the most effective solution would be to leave a bomb on the door of the target my VIP wanted eradicating. As it was still early, I swiftly made to the stairwell and left the explosives charged. I look forward with eager anticipation to hear that I fulfilled the terms of agreement, and that another big fat bonus cheque is in the post. Somebody put a bomb on my door this morning, somewhere betweeen 2:30 and 7 am, which is very enterprising. It was a small bottle with a cracker snap, one end of which was taped to the bottle, and one to my door. Fortunately for me, when I opened the door, the sellotape that should have been firmly stuck to my door came off, without triggering the bomb. Bobby Fett tried to bomb one door.

78. KSU -- History A special role in the history of the University was played by the great mathematicianNikolai lobachevsky who was Rector of the University from 1827 to 1846. http://www.kcn.ru/tat_en/university/history/

Site Map Search Contact the Webmaster ... Video ( .avi 56 Mb ) Kazan State University was established in 1804 and for a lot of years remained Russia's easternmost higher education establishment. Kazan University scholars have made a great contribution in the development of natural sciences as well as 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 foundation. 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.

79. Non-Euclidean Geometry : Non-euclidean Geometry present. A hundred years later, in 1829, the Russian nikolai IvanovichLobachevsky published a treatise of hyperbolic geometry. http://www.fastload.org/no/Non-euclidean_geometry.html

Non-Euclidean geometry : Non-euclidean geometry Home Up About 'Non-Euclidean geometry : Non-euclidean geometry' Advertisement Table of contents 1 Description 2 History 3 Reference 4 External link ... 5 See also: Description The term non-Euclidean geometry describes both hyperbolic and elliptic geometry, which are contrasted with Euclidean geometry . The essential difference between Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry is the nature of parallel lines. In Euclidean geometry, if we start with a point A and a line l , then we can only draw one line through A that is parallel to l . In hyperbolic geometry, by contrast, there are infinitely many lines through A parallel to to l , and in elliptic geometry, parallel lines do not exist. (See the entries on hyperbolic geometry and elliptic geometry for more information.) Another way to describe the differences between these geometries is as follows: consider two lines in a plane that are both perpendicular to a third line. In Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry, the two lines are then parallel. In Euclidean geometry, however, the lines remain at a constant distance , while in hyperbolic geometry they "curve away" from each other, increasing their distance as one moves farther from the point of intersection with the common perpendicular. In elliptic geometry, the lines "curve toward" each other, and eventually intersect; therefore no parallel lines exist in elliptic geometry.
