Left with a speech defect he adopted the nickname of Tartaglia ('stammerer').   Taylor, Brook (1685-1731) - Invented the method for expanding functions in terms of polynomials about an arbitrary point known as Taylor Series, Taylor series were a generalization of the Maclaurin Series.   The Fuller Map - Buckminster Fuller's ideas about geometry, architecture, cartography, and cognition in an analytical framework. Includes references for further study.   The History of Mathematics - History of Mathematics archive at the School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin.   Vaughan Frederick Randal Jones (1952-) - Profile of the 1990 Fields Medalist for his research in knot theory, including bibliography and links to additional online resources.   Viète - Francois Viète (1540-1603) - Introduced the first systematic algebraic notation, during the war with Spain (1590), Viète served Henry IV of France and deciphered the Spanish code in intercepted messages.   Von Neumann - Brief biography.   Weierstraß - Karl Weierstraß (1815-1897) - German mathematician who is considered the father of modern Analysis. His father enrolled him in law school, where Weierstraß majored in fencing and beer-drinking. He left without his degree.   Weyl - Hermann Weyl (1885-1955) - The greatest mathematician of his generation, Weyl made major contributions to Quantum Mechanics and Relativity Theory, and created a new branch of mathematics by uniting function theory and geometry, worked with Einstein.   Whitehead - Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947) - British mathematician, logician and philosopher, in collaboration with Bertrand Russell, authored the landmark three-volume Principia Mathematica (1910, 1912, 1913).   Willard van Orman Quine - home page maintained by his son   Woltman, George - GIMPS The Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search - GIMPS is dedicated to a rigorous search for new Mersenne primes. Our goal is to test every Mersenne number with an exponent less than 20,500,000.     [ 1 2 3 4 5 ] Help build the largest human-edited directory on the web.   Submit a Site - Open Directory Project - Become an Editor
