Extractions: At the age of 7, Carl Friedrich Gauss started elementary school, and his potential was noticed almost immediately. His teacher was amazed when Gauss summed the integers from 1 to 100 instantly by spotting that the sum was 50 pairs of numbers, each pair summing to 101. In 1788, Gauss began his education at the Gymnasium, where he learnt High German and Latin. Gauss entered Brunswick Collegium Carolinum in 1792. At the academy Gauss independently discovered Bode's law, the binomial theorem and the arithmetic-geometric mean, as well as the law of quadratic reciprocity and the prime number theorem. With a stipend from the Duke of Brunswick to support him, Gauss did not need to find a job so devoted himself to research. He published the number theory book Disquisitiones Arithmeticae Much of Gauss's time was spent on a new observatory, completed in 1816, but he still found the time to work on other subjects. His publications during this time include a rigorous treatment of series and an introduction of the hypergeometric function, a practical essay on approximate integration, a discussion of statistical estimators, and a work concerned with potential theory. Gauss carried out a geodesic survey of the state of Hanover, using his extraordinary mental capacity for calculations. He regularly wrote to Schumacher, Olbers, Bessel, and Sophie Germain, reporting on his progress and discussing problems. Because of the survey, Gauss invented the heliotrope which worked by reflecting the Sun's rays using a design of mirrors and a small telescope.

Extractions: décédé à Göttingen le 23 février 1855. Enfant prodige, Gauss apprit seul à lire et à compter à l'âge de 3 ans. Remarquant ses aptitudes, le duc de Brunswick lui accorda une bourse en 1792 afin de lui permettre de poursuivre son instruction. Il fréquenta le collège Caroline de 1792 à 1795 et formula à cette époque la méthode des moindres carrés et une conjecture sur la répartition des nombres premiers. Cette conjecture fut prouvée par Jacques Hadamard en 1896. En 1795 Gauss se rendit à Göttingen où il découvrit le théorème fondamental des résidus quadratiques. Gauss développa le concept des nombres complexes et en 1799 l'université de Helmstedt lui décerna le titre de docteur pou sa thèse qui donnait la première démonstration du théorème fondamental de l'algèbre. Dans cette thèse, Gauss critiqua sévèrement Legendre, Laplace et d'autres grands mathématiciens pour leur manque de rigueur. A l'âge de 24 il publia Disquisitiones arithmeticae , sa théorie des nombres, un des travaux les plus remarquables de l'histoire des mathématiques. La construction des polygones et polyèdres réguliers apparaissent dans ce travail en tant que congruences d'entiers et liés à la loi de réciprocité quadratique.

Extractions: Article taken from "Backsights" Magazine published by Surveyors Historical Society CARL FRIEDRICH GAUSS by Fred Roeder, P.S., 1993 Every self-respecting surveyor knows that our first, third and sixteenth Presidents had - for a brief period in their lives - been surveyors. But not even the most chauvinistic of our peers would argue that Washington's picture appears on a one dollar bill because of our country's desire to honor a great surveyor. Surveyors just are not that famous...or are they? Imagine my surprise when my nephew handed me a new German ten mark bill, and my eyes fell on a triangulation diagram consisting of a chain of triangles connecting 17 named stations, alongside a picture of a sextant covering almost half the bill. On the obverse was a portrait of Carl Friedrich Gauss and the equation of his famous error curve. I doubt seriously that the average German knows more about Gauss than does the average American, who is in the top 10% if he knows that Gauss was one of the three greatest mathematicians of all time (the others being Archimedes and Newton), whose accomplishments fill pages in any encyclopedia of mathematics and science. It is therefore all the more remarkable that those in charge of designing money chose to honor Gauss the geodetic surveyor, rather than Gauss the mathematician and astronomer. It helps to drive home an important truth: the surveyor plays a key role in the life of any civilized society. Carl Friedrich Gauss was born in 1777 into a poor family (his father was a gardener) in the German city of Braunschweig (Brunswick). He was an extremely precocious child, astounding his parents and teachers with his mathematical abilities from the age of three years. There is a story that the child mentally added the numbers from one to one hundred in a few minutes by reasoning that the order in which they are added doesn't matter, and he simply added 1+99+2+98+3+97...all the way to 49+51, reducing the whole problem to (49x100)+100+50 = 5,050. While still a teenager, he propounded the theory of least squares, demonstrated a solution to the age-old problem of dividing a circle into 17 parts, and made important mathematical discoveries which he was too shy to publish and entrusted only to his diary.

Gauss was extremely careful and rigorous in all his work, insisting on a complete proof of any result before he would publish it. As a consequence, he made many discoveries that were not credited to him and had to be remade by others later; for example, he anticipated Bolyai and Lobachevsky in non-Euclidean geometry, Jacobi in the double periodicity of elliptic functions, Cauchy in the theory of functions of a complex variable, and Hamilton in quaternions. However, his published works were enough to establish his reputation as one of the greatest mathematicians of all time.

Extractions: Died: February 23, 1855 in Gottingen, Hanover (now Germany) Gauss returned to Brunswick where he received a degree in 1799. After the Duke of Brunswick had agreed to continue Gauss's stipend, he requested that Gauss submit a doctoral dissertation to the University of Helmstedt. He already knew Pfaff, who was chosen to be his advisor. Gauss's dissertation was a discussion of the fundamental theorem of algebra. With his stipend to support him, Gauss did not need to find a job so devoted himself to research. He published the book Disquisitiones Arithmeticae in the summer of 1801. There were seven sections, all but the last section, referred to above, being devoted to number theory. In June 1801, Zach, an astronomer whom Gauss had come to know two or three years previously, published the orbital positions of Ceres, a new "small planet" which was discovered by G Piazzi, an Italian astronomer on 1 January, 1801. Unfortunately, Piazzi had only been able to observe 9 degrees of its orbit before it disappeared behind the Sun. Zach published several predictions of its position, including one by Gauss which differed greatly from the others. When Ceres was rediscovered by Zach on 7 December 1801 it was almost exactly where Gauss had predicted. Although he did not disclose his methods at the time, Gauss had used his least squares approximation method.

Extractions: Carl Friedrich Gauss, cuando tenía diez años de edad, su maestro solicitó a la clase que encontrará la suma de todos los números comprendidos entre uno y cien. El maestro, pensando que con ello la clase estaría ocupada algún tiempo, quedó asombrado cuando Gauss, levantó en seguida la mano y dio la respuesta correcta. Gauss reveló que encontró la solución usando el álgebra, el maestro se dio cuenta de que el niño era una promesa en las matemáticas. Hijo de un humilde albañil, Gauss dio señales dio señales de ser un genio antes de que cumpliera los tres años. A esa edad aprendió a leer y hacer cálculos aritméticos mentales con tanta habilidad que descubrió un error en los cálculos que hizo su padre para pagar unos sueldos. Ingresó a la escuela primaria antes de que cumpliera los siete años. Cuando tenía doce años, criticó los fundamentos dela geometría euclidiana; a los trece le interesaba las posibilidades de la geometría no euclidiana. A los quince, entendía la convergencia y probó el binomio de Newton . El genio y la precocidad de Gauss llamaron la atención del duque de Brunswick, quien dispuso, cuando el muchacho tenía catorce años, costear tanto su educación secundaria como universitaria. Gauss, a quien también le interesaban los clásicos y los idiomas, pensaba que haría de la filología la obra de su vida, pero las matemáticas resultaron ser una atracción irresistible.

A vingt ans il avait déjà assez de découvertes à son actif pour assurer sa célébrité. Il a renouvelé totalement les méthodes de l'arithmétique et apporté de nombreuses contributions tant en maths "pures" qu'"appliquées". On lui doit aussi la méthode des moindres carrés, la théorie des erreurs (courbe de Gauss) et d'importantes découvertes sur la théorie des surfaces. Gauss et les nombres complexes Quelques résultats obtenus par GAUSS : On lui doit la méthode du pivot de Gauss qui consiste, pour résoudre un système d'équations linéaires, à faire des opérations sur les lignes et les colonnes de manière à obtenir un système triangulaire. Ce qui permet de résoudre plus aisément le système d'équations. La somme des n premiers nombres est donné par la formule : S = n(n + 1)/2.

Extractions: 8.1 Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777-1855) Carl Friedrich Gauss sa narodil 30. apríla roku 1777 v Braunschweigu. Jeho otec bol majstrom intalatérom. Gaussovo matematické nadanie sa prejavilo ve¾mi skoro. Legenda hovorí, e vo veku troch rokov, keï sa pozeral na otcove výpoèty, naiel v nich chybu a opravil ich. Sám Gauss raz poznamenal, e sa nauèil poèíta prv ako hovori. Umením sèíta ohromil svojho uèite¾a v ¾udovej kole. Vyuèovanie prebiehalo súbene s demi rôzneho veku, preto uèite¾ zvykol dáva deom úlohy na samostatnú prácu, aby sa za ten èas mohol venova ostatným. Skupine mladích iakov dal sèíta èísla od 1 po 100 . Desaroèný Gauss poloil na uèite¾ov stôl svoju tabu¾ku s odpoveïou 5050 hneï ako ten prestal diktova zadanie. Táto príhoda sa rozchýrila po celom vojvodstve a o mladom Gaussovi sa dopoèul aj Braunschweigský vojvoda, ktorý pomohol Gaussovi dosta sa na Göttingenskú univerzitu. Na univerzite tudoval Gauss v rokoch 1795-1798. Dlho sa nevedel rozhodnú, èo si má zvoli za povolanie, matematiku alebo filológiu , ktorou sa tie úspene zaoberal. Na konci 18. storoèia dolo v klasickej filológii k revoluènej premene, keï z nastupujúcou romantikou prestal by prajazyk h¾adaný v biblickej hebrejèine, ale vedci vedeckými metódami ukázali, e nemèina má svojou gramatickou truktúrou bliie k starej gréètine a latinèine ako k hebrejèine. Na obranu tejto odvánej mylienky bola vypracovaná úplne nová vetva jazykovedy - porovnávacia a historická gramatika. V priebehu týchto bádaní bol postupne zrekontruovaný sanskrit ako pôvodný jazyk indogermánskeho spoloèenstva. Je to slávne obdobie Herdera, Humboldta a bratov Grimmovcov, ktorí vytvorili asi najväèí slovník nemeckého jazyka, aký bol kedy vytvorený. Stojí zato ís si ho pozrie do Göteho intitútu. Take nie èudo e atmosféra nastupujúcej romantiky mladého Gaussa priahovala.

Extractions: Gauss, Carl Friedrich Gauss, Carl Friedrich (gous), 1777-1855, German mathematician, physicist, and astronomer; b. Johann Friederich Carl Gauss. Considered the greatest mathematician of his Time and the equal of Archimedes and Newton, Sir Isaac , Gauss made many discoveries before age twenty. His greatest work was in Number Theory; his Disquisitiones Arithmeticae (completed 1798; pub. 1801) is a masterpiece. Extremely rigorous in his work, Gauss refused to publish any result without a complete proof. Thus, many discoveries were not credited to him and were remade by others later, e.g., the work of János Bolyai and Nikolai Lobachevsky in NON- Euclid ean Geometry , Augustin Cauchy in complex variable analysis, Carl Jacobi in elliptic functions, and Sir William Rowan Hamilton in quaternions. Gauss early discovered, independently of Adrien Legendre, the method of least squares. In 1801, when the asteroid Ceres was discovered by the Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi, Gauss calculated its orbit on the basis of only a few accurate observations, and it was found the next year precisely where he had predicted. His Theoria motus corporum celestium (1809) treats the calculation of the orbits of planets and comets from observational data. From 1807 until his death Gauss was director of the astronomical observatory at Göttingen. Geodetic survey work done for the governments of Hanover and Denmark from 1821 led him to an interest in space curves and surfaces, as well as to the invention of the heliotrope, a device to measure distances by means of reflected

Extractions: Home Geschichte Mathematiker Zitate ... Suche Carl Friedrich Gauss Als Sohn armer Eltern wurde er am 30.April 1777 in Braunschweig geboren und starb am 23.Februar 1855 in Göttingen. Sein Motto lautete: 'Pauca sed matura' (Weniges, aber Reifes) C.F. Gauss sagte später, er habe das Rechnen vor dem Reden gelernt. Sein Leben lang behielt er die Gabe, die kompliziertesten Rechnungen im Kopf auszuführen. Klassisch ist die Geschichte in der Schule als der Lehrer den zehnjährigen Schülern die Aufgabe gibt, die Summe aller Zahlen von 1 bis 100 zu errechnen. Es dauerte einige Sekunden und C.F. Gauss legte seine Schiefertafel auf den Tisch. Am Ende der Stunde war seine Zahl die einzig richtige. Seine frühe Begegnung mit dem "Binomischen Lehrsatz" ermöglichte ihm über ganzzahlige Exponenten hinaus die richtige Anwendung unendlicher Reihen, also das Wesen der mathematischen Analysis, zu entwickeln. Gauss misstraute bereits mit 12 Jahren der Beweisführung in der elementaren Geometrie und ahnte mit sechzehn Jahren, dass es neben der euklidischen noch eine andere Geometrie geben muss. Ein Jahr darauf begann er mit kritischen Untersuchungen der Zahlentheorie, und die Arithmetik, das Gebiet seiner ersten Triumphe, wurde zu seinem Lieblingsfach. Der Herzog von Braunschweig ermöglichte dem jungen Gauss sich im Collegium Carolinum in Braunschweig einzuschreiben und kam bis zum Ende seiner Studien für alle Kosten auf.
