INTRODUCTION

 A mathematician is someone who uses an extensive knowledge


of mathematics in their work, typically to solve mathematical
problems. Mathematicians are concerned with numbers, data,
quantity, structure, space, models, and change.

 Indian mathematics emerged in the Indian subcontinent from


1200 BCE until the end of the 18th century. In the classical
period of Indian mathematics (400 CE to 1200 CE), important
contributions were made by scholars like Aryabhata,
Brahmagupta, Bhaskara II, and Satyendra Nath Bose. The
decimal number system in use today was first recorded in
Indian mathematics. Indian mathematicians made early
contributions to the study of the concept of zero as a number,
negative numbers, arithmetic, and algebra. In addition,
trigonometry was further advanced in India, and, in particular,
the modern definitions of sine and cosine were developed there.
These mathematical concepts were transmitted to the Middle
East, China, and Europe and led to further developments that
now form the foundations of many areas of mathematics.

 Assumptions, and answers it's about asking the right questions,


challenging our exploring new frontiers of knowledge.

SATYENDRA NATH BOSE

 Satyendra Nath Bose (1894–1974) was an Indian


mathematician and physicist who made significant
contributions to both fields. While Bose is perhaps best
known for his collaboration with Albert Einstein in
developing the theory of Bose-Einstein statistics and the
concept of Bose-Einstein condensates in quantum
mechanics, his mathematical contributions also played a
crucial role in shaping modern physics.

 One of Bose's notable mathematical inventions is the


"BoseEinstein Statistics," which revolutionized our
understanding of the behavior of particles at extremely low
temperatures.
2
 In 1924, Bose sent a paper to Albert Einstein where he
derived a new way of counting the number of ways particles
can occupy quantum states. This led to the development of
Bose-Einstein statistics, which describes the behavior of
particles that obey Bose-Einstein distribution, such as
photons and certain elementary particles called bosons. His
pioneering work in developing innovative mathematical
techniques that contributed to the formulation of
BoseEinstein statistics, a cornerstone in modern theoretical
physics.

 His mathematical acumen and interdisciplinary approach


have left a lasting impact on various branches of science,
particularly in the field of quantum mechanics.

 His work laid the foundation for the prediction and


subsequent discovery of Bose-Einstein condensates, a state
of matter where a collection of bosons occupies the same
quantum state, leading to macroscopic quantum phenomena.

 The reason Bose's interpretation produced accurate results


was that since photons are indistinguishable from each other,
one cannot treat any two photons having equal energy as
being two distinct identifiable photons.

BRAHMAGUPTA

 Brahmagupta was a clever mathematician from ancient India


who lived around 598 CE. He was born in a place called
Bhinmal, which is now in Rajasthan, India. He did a lot of
important things in math that we still use today.

 One of Brahmagupta's most notable achievements was his


introduction of zero as a numeral in its own right, distinct
from a mere placeholder. In his seminal work
"Brahmasphutasiddhanta," he established rules for
arithmetic operations involving zero, negative numbers, and
fractions. This revolutionary concept laid the foundation for
modern arithmetic, providing a symbol for the absence of
quantity and enabling algebraic manipulations.

 Moreover, Brahmagupta made significant strides in algebra,
presenting methods for solving quadratic equations and
addressing equations with multiple unknowns. His
systematic approach to algebraic problem-solving provided
mathematicians with powerful tools for tackling complex
mathematical challenges. His pioneering work in the field of
mathematics, particularly his contributions to algebra and
number theory.

 Additionally, Brahmagupta made important contributions to


astronomy, accurately calculating the positions of celestial
objects and formulating theories on eclipses and planetary
motion.

 Brahmagupta's legacy extends beyond his mathematical and


astronomical achievements. He played a pivotal role in
preserving and disseminating mathematical knowledge in
ancient India, influencing subsequent generations of
mathematicians and astronomers.

 He went on to solve systems of simultaneous indeterminate


equations stating that the desired variable must first be
isolated, and then the equation must be divided by the
desired variable's coefficient.

SRINIVASA RAMANUJAN

 Srinivasa Ramanujan was an extraordinary mathematician


whose brilliance continues to inspire mathematicians
worldwide. Born in 1887 in Erode, Tamil Nadu, India,
Ramanujan's mathematical journey began with self-study
and exploration of mathematical concepts.

 Ramanujan's work on partition theory revolutionized the


study of integer partitions, which deals with expressing
numbers as sums of positive integers. He developed
ingenious formulas and identities that provided insights into
the distribution of partitions and influenced various areas of
mathematics and theoretical physics.

 His contributions to the theory of modular forms and elliptic
functions were also profound. Ramanujan formulated new
identities and discovered relationships between different
types of functions, paving the way for advancements in
complex analysis and algebraic geometry. Ramanujan's most
famous achievement is his discovery of remarkable formulas
involving infinite series.

 Despite his remarkable talent, Ramanujan faced significant


challenges. However, his breakthrough came when English
mathematician G.H. Hardy recognized the depth of
Ramanujan's insights and invited him to England.

 In England, Ramanujan collaborated with Hardy and other


prominent mathematicians at Cambridge University.
Together, they explored Ramanujan's ideas and published
many of his results, which garnered international acclaim.
Ramanujan's work not only enriched mathematical
knowledge but also fostered new areas of research and
