Years later Terquem remarked, "A candidate of superior intelligence is lost with an examiner of inferior intelligence." However, Galois found a mathematics teacher, Louis Richard, and really started studying and doing mathematics. His first paper, on continued fractions, was published when he was 17. At 18, Galois reapplied to the Poly technique, and again the examination went badly. Finally, during the oral part of the exam, he lost patience with one of the examiners and threw the eraser at him. It was a hit, but Galois could never apply there again. At 19, Galois attended the university and wrote three original papers on the theory of algebraic equations. He submitted them to the Academy of Sciences for the competition in mathematics. The Secretary of the Academy took them home to read, but then died before writing a report about them and the papers were never found. Galois was understandably upset: "Genius is condemned by a malicious social organization to an eternal denial of justice in favor of fawning mediocrity." In 1830 the French masses revolted, and Galois was a staunch supporter. The director of the school locked the students in the school during the fighting and then expelled Galois for a public letter he wrote condemning the director. Galois tried to start his own school of mathematics, but got no students, so he joined the National Guard "If a carcass is needed to stir up the people, I will donate mine." Galois was jailed for supposedly threatening the King, but was found 'not guilty' by a jury. Finally he was convicted and sentenced to 6 months in jail for "illegally wearing a uniform."

Evariste Galois (1811 - 1832) Galois is one of the most tragic and romantic figures of mathematics. The son of the mayor of a small town outside Paris, he undoubtedly had the potential to become one of the greatest mathematicians of all time. Galois proved that no polynomial of degree greater than five could be solved analyticaly, a great outsanding problem of the day. In the course of doing this he singlehandedly laid the foundations of a whole new area of mathematics called Group Theory, he is remembered in the title of the subject Galois Theory. He did all of this before the age of 21. Galois' early schooling was at the infamous lycee of Louis Grande in Paris. This school was notorious for beatings and severe punishments of the students. The treatment of pupils was so bad that the students staged a rebellion, demanding better conditions. The rebellion was put down and Galois returned to the torture of lycee Louis Grande. At the age of 16 he recognised his mathematical genius and applied to the prestigous Ecole Polytechnique. However so sure was he of acceptance that he did not bother to study for the entrance exams, his lack of formal qualifications and a less than scintillating acedemic record in areas outside mathematics also counted against him, he was turned down. In the Ecole Normal he disregarded his regular schooling and investigated the further reaches of higher mathematics. He was fascinated by Legendre's (1752 - 1830) work on solutions to polynomial equations. In 1828 Galois came under the wing of Louis Paul Emile Richard, who was noted for fostering young mathematical talent, at last it seemed that things were going Galois' way. Galois secured a promise from Cauchy (1789 - 1857) to review his first paper for submission to a

The life of Evariste Galois, and how 60 pages of work became abstract algebra ABSTRACT What does it take to make a famous mathematician? A volume of work published, a lifetime of accomplishments? Not so in the case of Évariste Galois. Born in 1811 and dying just 20 years later in a duel, Galois had no time for years of contemplation or long tomes on mathematics during his career. The whole of his work spans just 60 pages, all of it written frantically the night before the duel that would end his life. But this work, this short treatise with “I have not time” scrawled repeatedly in the margins, develops an entirely new algebra, a modern system of groups and fields, enough material for perhaps five college courses on the subject. Because Galois’ work can be taken and expanded, it is possible to prove dozens of properties of group theory from three basic postulates. “In all the history of science, there is no completer example of the triumph of crass stupidity over untamable genius than is afforded by the all too brief life of Évariste Galois.” • E.T. Bell, “Genius and Stupidity: Galois,” from Men of Mathematics

Évariste Galois French mathematician (1811-1832) who made important contributions to mathematics, including group theory. For further interest, a biography follows below. Brilliance in a Short and Tragic Life variste Galois was born in the village of Bourg-la-Reine near Paris on October 25, 1811 to Nicholas Gabriel Galois and Adelaide Marie Galois Demante. Both of his parents were intelligent and well educated in philosophy, classical literature and religion. However, there is no indication of any special mathematical ability in any members of Galois' family. His mother was his sole teacher until he was 12 years old, teaching him subjects such as Greek, Latin and religion, where she imparted her own skepticism to her son. Galois' father was an influential member of the community and in 1815, he was elected mayor of the village. Galois enrolled at the Lycée of Louis-le-Grand in Paris as a boarding student in October, 1823. During 1824-25, his school record was good and he received several prizes. However in 1826, Galois was asked to repeat the year because his work in rhetoric was not up to the required standard. February, 1827, was a turning point in Galois' life. He enrolled in his first mathematics class, the class of M. Vernier. He quickly became absorbed in mathematics and his director of studies wrote:

2. La vie d'Évariste Galois La précocité est un don périlleux. La vie d'Évariste Galois en témoigne. Il fut l'un de ces hommes dont parle La Bruyère : "Semblables à ces étoiles extraordinaires dont on ignore les causes, ils n'ont ni aïeuls, ni descendants, ils composent seules toute leur race." Évariste Galois est né le 25 octobre 1811 à Bourg-La-Reine, non loin de Paris. Son père, Nicolas Gabriel Galois, tenait un pensionnat de jeunes gens fondé avant la révolution et exerçait la fonction de maire dans son village. Sa mère, Adélaïde Marie Demante, fille d'un magistrat, était profondément imprégnée de culture antique. Instruit par sa mère, Évariste fut aimable et heureux enfant. Il quitta la maison paternelle en 1823, à l'âge de douze ans, pour rentrer en quatrième au collège Louis Le Grand , à l'époque collège royal, comme interne. Parmi les élèves de ce collège régnait un esprit intensément républicain par lequel Galois se laissa gagner entièrement sans toutefois que cela nuisit à son application. Deux ans plus tard, cependant, tandis qu'il était en seconde, il manifesta de la lassitude pour le travail scolaire: les succès d'écolier ne le tentèrent pas. Ses maîtres de plaignirent de lui. Il devint alors un élève très irrégulier connaissant sa leçon à la perfection ou bien l'ignorant totalement si celle-ci lui déplaisait. Le proviseur trouva que l'enfant n'avait pas le jugement assez mûr pour passer dans la classe supérieure. Il doubla donc son année scolaire 1826-1827.

3. Évariste Galois et les mathématiciens de son temps Les oeuvres mathématiques de Galois forment un volume de soixante et une pages qui à elles seules assureront sa célébrité. Son nom restera attaché aux plus belles découvertes du siècle dernier, ses doctrines seront présentes dans presque toutes les parties des mathématiques. "Combien de semaines de sa vie brève et agitée, cet enfant de vingt ans aura-t-il données à la science qui lui doit tant" regrette Jules Tannery dans sa préface à la biographie de Dupuy (4,p.6) Joseph Louis Lagrange Tout en étant sûr de la valeur de ses idées, Galois gardera l'amertume d'avoir été, pendant sa courte carrière mathématique, incompris par tous les savants qui auraient dû encourager de leurs conseils l'éclosion de son génie. Que serait-il devenu, si, comme Augustin Cauchy , il avait rencontré un Lagrange pour lui rendre la voie commune assez attrayante pour qu'il consentit à le suivre? mais ce ne fut pas le cas. Évariste croyait tout au contraire, en tourmentant ses maîtres, veiller au maintien de ses droits.

"Arrival of a Modern Math Genius!" by Jeffrey Becker '00 HEAVEN GAZETTE Évariste Galois Date on Earth: June 5, 1832 It is our honor and privilege to announce the arrival of a new spirit, the mathematician Evariste Galois. While humans on Earth have yet to discover the meaning and importance of his theories, rumor has it that his work will change the course of the human study of mathematics. He developed what we have chosen to call the Galois group, Galois field, and Galois theory. To gain some insight on the life of this extraordinary being, the Heaven Gazette has interviewed Galois shortly after his arrival to Heaven. Algebraist and Group Theorist HG: Welcome to Heaven, monsieur Galois! How long have you been among us? Galois: Only a short while. I left Earth on May 31, but I seem to have left my sense of time behind. Time in Heaven apparently does not coordinate with time on Earth. HG: That is true. According to the Official Record, you left Earth when you were only 21 years old. How is it that you have become so knowledgeable in the subject of mathematics in such a short period of time? You must have begun studying it at a very early age. Galois: Actually, I didn't take my first mathematics course until I was around 16. My mother taught me at home until I was 12, and although both my parents were very intelligent people neither had backgrounds in mathematics to guide me in that direction. It is a good thing I discovered Professor Vernier and mathematics, as my performance in rhetoric and literature were less than stellar...

De aquí en adelante, la monarquía de Louis XVI se enfrentó a serias dificultades al unificarse la mayoría de los franceses con el propósito de destruir el poder de la iglesia y del gobierno. A pesar de los esfuerzos de Louis XVI de llegar a un acuerdo fue enjuiciado después de intentar huir del país. Tras la ejecución del Rey el 21 de enero de 1793, siguió un régimen de terror con muchos juicios políticos. A fines de 1793, había 4595 prisioneros políticos en París. Sin embargo, Francia comenzó a tener mejores tiempos cuando los ejércitos comandados por Napoleón empezaron a ganar batalla tras batalla. Napoleón se nombró Primer Cónsul en 1800 y luego Emperador en 1804. Mientras el ejército francés proseguía la conquista de Europa, el poder de Napoleón se arraigaba cada vez más. En 1811 Napoleón se encontraba en su apogeo. El 25 de octubre de 1811, nació Évariste Galois en Bourg-la-Reine, un pequeño poblado al sur de París.

Index Evariste Galois Evariste Galois werd geboren op 25 oktober 1811 in Bourg-la-Reine Om inzicht te kunnen krijgen in het leven van Galois, moeten we ons enigszins verdiepen in het Frankrijk van het begin van de negentiende eeuw. Op 14 juli 1789 was de Parijse bevolking in opstand gekomen tegen het bewind van koning Lodewijk XVI en tegen de macht van de adel en de geestelijkheid. De opstand, die bekend geworden is onder de naam `Franse Revolutie', sloeg over naar andere delen van Frankrijk. Lodewijk werd afgezet en op 21 januari 1793 onthoofd. Na enkele rumoerige jaren kwam in 1800 de generaal Napoleon Bonaparte aan de macht. Napoleon werd meteen de machtigste man van Europa, want in de jaren na de Revolutie had Frankrijk veel omliggende landen veroverd. In 1804 liet Napoleon zich tot keizer kronen. Napoleon ging echter ten onder aan zijn eigen veroveringszucht. Na enkele nederlagen, onder andere in Rusland en bij Leipzig, werd Frankrijk in 1814 binnengevallen door enkele van haar tegenstanders. De oude machthebbers werden weer in het zadel geholpen en Napoleon werd naar Elba, een eiland voor de Italiaanse kust, verbannen. In 1815 wist hij echter te ontsnappen en nam de macht over Frankrijk weer over. Na precies honderd dagen werd hij echter tijdens de Slag bij Waterloo definitief verslagen en verbannen naar St. Helena, een eiland in de zuidelijke Atlantische Oceaan, alwaar hij in 1821 zou overlijden.
