The original goal of this blog was to divide up the history into three phases:
Phase I: Early Achievements
Phase II: Kummer's Achievement
Phase III: Wile's Achievement
As part of the first phase, I have done blogs on the following mathematicians:
- Johann Dirichlet
- Diophantus of Alexandria
- Ferdinand Eisenstein
- Leonhard Euler
- Pierre de Fermat
- Carl Friedrich Gauss
- Sophie Germain
- Joseph Lagrange
- Gabriel Lamé
- Adrien Legendre
- Sir Isaac Newton
- Blaise Pascal
Thanks to everyone who has provided questions and comments on the different parts of each proof. Please continue to point out areas which are unclear or details which can be improved.
Thanks to everyone for your support. I am very glad (and surprised) to see that there is a growing audience for number theory and for a blog that is not much more than the details behind famous mathematical proofs.
Cheers,
-Larry
