HYPATIA (370-415)HypatiaHypatia, a mathematician, astronomer and philosopher, was the daughter of the famous mathematician of the period, Theon. She gave lectures on philosophy, mathematics and astronomy at the Library of Alexandria. Hypatia tried to explain nature with logic, mathematics and experimentation.After receiving her education in Athens, Hypatia returned to Alexandria around 400 and began teaching at the Plato School in the Library of Alexandria. At this school, Hypatia taught the teachings of Plato and Aristotle to her students who had many beliefs, including Christianity, Paganism and Judaism. Among these students were Orestes, who would later become the governor of Alexandria, and Synesius, who would become the bishop of Ptolemais.

Omar Khayyam is the most famous mathematician and astronomer of the second half of the 11th century, an Iranian scholar.He produced works in the fields of astronomy, music, physics, and mathematics.He developed a general method for solving third-degree equations.He carried out original studies on Euclid's axiom of parallels.

Women have made great contributions to the development of science.

Carson was born in Pennsylvania in 1907. She was a marine scientist by profession. She is credited with starting the global environmental movement, which is partly linked to her book Silent Spring. Carson was one of the first scientists to show us how much damage we can cause to the environment through our activities and that it is truly worth fighting for our healthy environment.

"Famous Mathematicians"

Nino Giorgadze

René Dekarte-(1596-1650) was a famous philosopher, mathematician, and scientist. He is widely recognized as the founder of modern philosophy and the "father of modern mathematics." Dekarte created the foundations of analytic geometry, introduced the concept of variable quantities, developed the coordinate method, and also established a connection between algebra and geometry. The young Dekarte successfully mastered the basics of science. His interests were not limited to mathematics. He was interested in mechanics, optics, biology, and philosophy.

Niko Muskhelishvili (1891-1976) is the author of fundamental textbooks for higher education institutions in analytical geometry and theoretical mechanics. His monograph "Some Basic Problems of the Theory of Elasticity" has long become a standard textbook for scientists both in Georgia and abroad. He was an honorary member of the academies of sciences of many countries.

Pythagora (BC 580 — BC 500) Ancient Greek, Ionian mathematician and philosopher, founder of the mystical religious and scientific society known as the Pythagoreans, best known for the "Pythagorean theorem", which bears his name.

Known as the "Father of Numbers". He made significant contributions to the development of mathematical principles, arithmetic, geometry, cosmology, and music theory of his time.In Croton, Pythagoras founded a scientific school that resembled a secret society of aristocrats, its members strictly observed certain rules. One of these rules was to keep the received knowledge secret. Pythagoras copied this from the Egyptian priests. The Pythagoreans were divided into students and listeners. The listeners could not see the teacher. The study room was divided into two parts by a partition, in one of which Pythagoras studied with his students, and in the other, the listeners were present.

Her early researches, together with her husband, were often performed under difficult conditions, laboratory arrangements were poor and both had to undertake much teaching to earn a livelihood. The discovery of radioactivity by Henri Becquerel in 1896 inspired the Curies in their brilliant researches and analyses which led to the isolation of polonium, named after the country of Marie’s birth, and radium. Mme. Curie developed methods for the separation of radium from radioactive residues in sufficient quantities to allow for its characterization and the careful study of its properties, therapeutic properties in particular.

Mme. Curie throughout her life actively promoted the use of radium to alleviate suffering and during World War I, assisted by her daughter, Irene, she personally devoted herself to this remedial work. She retained her enthusiasm for science throughout her life and did much to establish a radioactivity laboratory in her native city – in 1929 President Hoover of the United States presented her with a gift of $ 50,000, donated by American friends of science, to purchase radium for use in the laboratory in Warsaw.

(circa 287 – 212 BC)

Just like Euclid before him very little is known about the life of this outstanding sage. Still, there is no doubt that he grossly advanced Pure and Applied Mathematics. Although some people consider him the greatest of all the ancient mathematicians, my research-findings (which were based on overall Ability, Versatility, Productivity and Developmental Influences) indicated otherwise. They gave Euclid ample edge over him due to his extraordinary influence and productivity. Nonetheless, it must be acknowledged that Archimedes lent his brilliance to several early developments, which paved the way for modern maths. His geometrical investigations complimented the preceding efforts of Pythagoras, Eudoxus and Euclid. Multifarious quests affirmed that he was an indefatigable researcher, who excelled in both theoretical and practical works. But I found no evidence to justify those hypes surrounding the claims that he was the best of the old bloc. Based on the fact that he lived three centuries after Pythagoras, and approximately four generations after Eudoxus and Euclid, the algorithms of his era were much more advanced and established: just as succeeding works were significantly superior to anything he envisaged. Also, a variety of machines (including screws, pulleys and claws) attributed to him, were developed and used by the Egyptians centuries prior. Needless to stress that those fabrications about him fostering calculus are risible. With that said, I attest that his (verifiable) accomplishments are grandiose. Archimedes’ vignette is embossed on IMU’s Fields Medal. A lunar crater and a lunar mountain range are also dedicated to him.
