The calculus was the first achievement of modern mathematics and it is difficult to overestimate its importance. I think it defines more… — John von Neumann Copy Share Image
I presume that few who have paid any attention to the history of the Mathematical Analysis, will doubt that it has been… — George Boole Copy Share Image
The effects of heat are subject to constant laws which cannot be discovered without the aid of mathematical analysis. The object of… — Joseph Fourier Copy Share Image
In mathematical analysis we call x the undetermined part of line a: the rest we don't call y, as we do in… — Georg C. Lichtenberg Copy Share Image
Mathematical analysis is as extensive as nature itself; it defines all perceptible relations, measures times, spaces, forces, temperatures:;; this difficult science is… — Joseph Fourier Copy Share Image
Every attempt to employ mathematical methods in the study of chemical questions must be considered profoundly irrational and contrary to the spirit… — Auguste Comte Copy Share Image
Mathematical Analysis is... the true rational basis of the whole system of our positive knowledge. — Auguste Comte Copy Share Image
Now, the velocity of wave propagation can be seen, without the aid of any mathematical analysis, to depend on the elasticity of… — Albert A. Michelson Copy Share Image
Now, in the development of our knowledge of the workings of Nature out of the tremendously complex assemblage of phenomena presented to… — Oliver Heaviside Copy Share Image
In studying the action of the Analytical Engine, we find that the peculiar and independent nature of the considerations which in all… — Ada Lovelace Copy Share Image
The great body of physical science, a great deal of the essential fact of financial science, and endless social and political problems… — H. G. Wells Copy Share Image
Whether game theory leads to clear-cut solutions, to vague solutions, or to impasses, it does achieve one thing. In bringing techniques of… — Anatol Rapoport Copy Share Image
Euclid manages to obtain a rigorous proof without ever dealing with infinity, by reducing the problem [of the infinitude of primes] to… — Lucio Russo Copy Share Image
So is not mathematical analysis then not just a vain game of the mind? To the physicist it can only give a… — Henri Poincare Copy Share Image
I believe that numbers and functions of Analysis are not the arbitrary result of our minds; I think that they exist outside… — Charles Hermite Copy Share Image
The further we analyse the manner in which such an engine performs its processes and attains its results, the more we perceive… — Ada Lovelace Copy Share Image
