Entire issue: 4 408 pp. <br/><br/><em>First publication of this groundbreaking paper which together with his three other papers on the pubject not offered here constitute the discovery of Automorphic Functions. "Before he was thirty years of age Poincaré became world famous with his epoch-making discovery of the "automorphic functions" of one complex variable or as he called them the "fuchsian" and "kleinean" functions." DSB.These manuscripts written between 28 June and 20 December 1880 show in detail how Poincaré exploited a series of insights to arrive at his first major contribution to mathematics: the discovery of the automorphic functions. In particular the manuscripts corroborate Poincaré's introspective account of this discovery 1908 in which the real key to his discovery is given to be the recognition that the transformations he had used to define Fuchsian functions are identical with those of non-Euclidean geometry. See Walter Poincaré Jules Henri French mathematician and scientist.The idea was to come in an indirect way from the work of his doctoral thesis on differential equations. His results applied only to restricted classes of functions and Poincaré wanted to generalize these results but as a route towards this he looked for a class functions where solutions did not exist. This led him to functions he named Fuchsian functions after Lazarus Fuchs but were later named automorphic functions. First editions and first publications of these epochmaking papers representing the discovery of "automorphic functions" or as Poincaré himself called them the "Fuchsian" and "Kleinian" functions."By 1884 Poincaré published five major papers on automorphic functions in the first five volumes of the new Acta Mathematica. When the first of these was published in the first volume of the new Acta Mathematica Kronecker warned the editor Mittag-Leffler that this immature and obscure article would kill the journal. Guided by the theory of elliptic functions Poincarë invented a new class of automorphic functions. This class was obtained by considering the inverse function of the ratio of two linear independent solutions of an equation. Thus this entire class of linear diffrential equations is solved by the use of these new transcendental functions of Poincaré." Morris Kline.Poincaré explains how he discovered the Automorphic Functions: "For fifteen days I strove to prove that there could not be any functions like those I have since called Fuchsian functions I was then very ignorant; every day I seated myself at my work table stayed an hour or two tried a great number of combinations and reached no results. One evening contrary to my custom I drank black coffee and could not sleep. Ideas rose in crowds; I felt them collide until pairs interlocked so to speak making a stable combination. By the next morning I had established the existence of a Class of Fuchsian functions those which come from hypergeometric series; i had only to write out the results which took but a few hours.the transformations that I had used to define the Fuchsian functions were identical with those of Non-Euclidean geometry." </em> hardcover

191150Budapest: Magyar Tudományos Akadémia Société Franklin 1911. Only edition. Published unbound. In fine condition. Only edition. Published unbound. 38 p. The “International Bolyai János Prize of Mathematics†founded by the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1902 with the aim to compensate the lack of Nobel Prize in the field of mathematics. It is awarded in every five years to mathematicians having published their monograph describing their own important new results. The prize was given first time in 1905 to Henry Poincaré and for second time to David Hilbert. Because of the outbreak of WWI and other historical and political reasons the prize was not given until the year 2000.<br /> David Hilbert was awarded in 1910 by the committee of Gyula Julius KÅ‘nig Gusztáv Rados Gösta Mittag-Leffler and Henry Poincaré.<br /> In the brochure there is a short description of the Prize a few words about the committee and the declaration that for the years 1905–1906 Hilbert is awarded. The following 36 pages is the report of Poincaré about the works and achievements of Hilbert in fields of invariant theory transcendent number e constant after Lindemann arithmetics the Hilbert-Waring theorem geometry integral equations and the Dirichlet’s principle.

1929170615Garden City New York: Doubleday Doran & Company 1929 & 1931. First US editions in English first printings presentation copies inscribed by the author on the half-title of each volume respectively "À Mr Aage Birger Nilsen R. Poincaré" and "À Monsieur Aage B. Nilsen Hommage de l'auteur R. Poincaré". Poincaré 1860-1930 served as President of France from 1913 to 1920. Prior to the war he was noted for his anti-German policy and shifting the Franco-Russian alliance to an offensive posture. During the war he maintained a belligerent position though from 1917 was increasingly sidelined by prime minister Clemenceau who led the Versailles negotiations. Poincaré's memoirs were published in French in 11 volumes. In total four volumes appeared in English: two volumes published in 1926 which covered 1912 and 1913 and these marked as volume III and IV taking the narrative through to the end of 1915. Although in French Poincaré's memoirs cover the entirety of the war these were the only volumes published in English. They were published in the US and UK the same years. The recipient Nilsen acquired the signatures of various prominent figures in the 1920s including Winston Churchill and George Gershwin; there are references to him as a military attaché and railroad executive. 2 vols octavo. Original blue cloth spines lettered in gilt. With dust jackets. Unclipped jackets with a hint of rubbing and soiling: fine copies in near-fine jackets. hardcover
