Livre de 1724 Exercitationes Quaedam Mathematicae. BERNOULLI, Daniel.

Détails bibliographiques

 

Titre : Exercitationes Quaedam Mathematicae.

Éditeur : Domenico Lovisa, Venice

Date d'édition : 1724

Edition : First edition

Description :

A fine copy, printed on thick paper, of Daniel Bernoulli’s first mathematical publication. "In 1724 Bernoulli published [with the help of Christian Goldbach] his Exercitationes mathematicae in Venice, which attracted so much attention that he was called to the St. Petersburg Academy [where he met with Leonhard Euler]. This treatise combined four separate works dealing, respectively, with the game of faro, the outflow of water from the openings of containers, Riccati’s differential equation, and the lunulae (figures bounded by two circular arcs). "The discussions on Jacopo Riccati’s differential equation were initiated in 1724 by the problem presented by Riccati in the Supplementa to the Acta eruditorum. . Bernoulli demonstrated that Riccati’s special differential equation axn dx + u2dx = b du could be integrated through separation of the variables for the values n = -4c/2c ± 1), where c takes on all integral values - positive, negative, and zero. . In the first part of the Exercitationes., dealing with faro, Bernoulli furnished data on recurrent series that later proved to have no practical application. . [but] was evidence of his early interest in the work on the theory of probability done by his predecessors Montmort and De Moivre, which had been nourished by discussions with his cousin Nikolaus I." (DSB). 4to: 260 x 190 mm. Contemporary vellum. Provenance: Engraved book plate of George Frederick Nott (1767 – 1841) to front paste down. Pp. 96 and 1 engaved plate. Printed on thick paper.

They are clearly and beautifully written, well explained and illustrated by examples. The Opera Omnia belong in any major working library concerned with mathematics and its applications. The edition of the series I, II and III is limited, for the most part, to re-publication of works that Euler himself prepared for press. The texts are reprinted in the original language, most frequently French or Latin. The fourth series is devoted to Euler's correspondence. - During his long career as a mathematician and scientist, Leonhard Euler published more than 500 research papers and about two dozen books. When he died in 1783, he left behind about 300 more articles in manuscript form; most of these were haphazardly printed during the following eighty years. Several 19th century projects for the publication of Euler's collected works failed; only in 1907, at the celebrations of Euler's 200th birthday, an initiative taken by Ferdinand Rudio led to the establishment of the Euler Edition under the wing of the Swiss Naturalist Society (now the Swiss Academy of Sciences). The current Euler Tercentenary Year therefore sees the 100th birthday of the edition of Euler's Collected Works, which is nearly completed. Sprache: de. N° de réf. du libraire 3796

Edition : 1st Edition

Description :

Euler, Leonhard (1707-1783). Methodus inveniendi lineas curvas maximi minimive proprietate gaudentes, sive solutio problematis isoperimetrici latissimo sensu accepti. 4to. [2], 322, [2]pp. 5 folding engraved plates. Lausanne & Geneva: Marc-Michel Bousquet & Compagnie, 1744. 248 x 199 mm. Half morocco, gilt spine, marbled boards c. 1744, rubbed, some wear at extremities and corners, bookplate removed from inside front cover. Minor foxing and toning, but very good. From the library of Pietro Riccardi (1828-98), historian and bibliographer of mathematics, with his library bookplate on the front endpaper.First Edition. With the publication of this work, the calculus of variations came into being as a new branch of mathematics. Euler was the first to formulate the principal problems of the calculus of variations and to create general methods for their solution. His work in the Methodus was cumbersome by modern standards (the calculus of variations as we know it is the work of Lagrange), but it yielded simple and elegant formulae applicable to a large variety of problems. He introduced (using different terminology) the concepts of function and variation, distinguished between problems of absolute and relative extrema, and deduced the differential equation that now bears his name.

Edition : First edition

Description :

An exceptionally fine copy of "Euler’s most valuable contribution to mathematics in which he developed the concept of the calculus of variations." (Norman). "This work displays an amount of mathematical genius seldom rivaled." (Cajori). "The book brought him immediate fame and recognition as the greatest living mathematician." (Kline). Horblit 28; Evans 9; Dibner 111; Sparrow 60; Norman 731."Starting with several problems solved by Johann and Jakob Bernoulli, Euler was the first to formulate the principal problems of the calculus of variations and to create general methods for their solution. In Methodus inveniendi lineas curvas he systematically developed his discoveries of the 1730’s (1739, 1741). The very title of the work shows that Euler widely employed geometric representations of functions as flat curves . Here he introduced, using different terminology, the concepts of function and variation and distinguished between problems of absolute extrema and relative extrema, showing how the latter are reduced to the former . (DSB). "In this book Euler extended known methods of the calculus of variations to form and solve differential equations for the general problem of optimizing single-integral variational quantities. He also showed how these equations could be used to represent the positions of equilibrium of elastic and flexible lines, and formulated the first rigorous dynamical variational principle." (Craig G. Fraser). "Basel had achieved enough glory in the history of mathematics through being the home of the Bernoullis, but she doubled her glory, when she produced Léonard Euler." (Smith).Craig G. Fraser in: Landmarks Writings in Western Mathematics, chapter 12; Cajori, History of Mathematics, p. 234; Smith, History of Mathematics, pp. 520-21; Kline, Mathematical Thought from Ancient to Modern Times, p. 579. 4to: 250 x 200 mm, fine contemporary polished calf with richly gilt spine (entirely untouched), pp [4:blank] [2:title] [1] 2-232 [2] and 5 folding engraved plates (the last two with some uniform browning due to the paper), title printed in red and black, engraved title vignette, woodcut head-piece and initial, an extremely fresh and crisp copy, completely unrestored.
