Arthur Cayley: Mathematician Laureate of the Victorian Age
Автор:Tony Crilly Год: 2006 Издание:The Johns Hopkins University Press Страниц: 640 ISBN: 9780801880117 Athur Cayley was one of the most prolific and important mathematicians of the Victorian era. His influence still pervades modern mathematics, in group theory (Cayley's theorem), matrix algebra (the Cayley-Hamilton theorem), and invariant theory, where he made his most significant contributions. Yet Cayley's life has been overlooked by historians, who have lavished far more attention on lesser figures. Mathematician and biographer Tony Crilly, the world's leading authority on Cayley, rectifies this oversight with the first definitive account of his life.
