Top Mathematicians of all time

With nearly a thousand first-class publications to his name, Leonhard Euler is the greatest mathematician of all time. He was relentlessly prolific. The champion of all the champions: not even his blindness (at a later age) slowed him down.

He is called the "KING OF MATHEMATICS"

best

this man deserve to be on the first position because he spent almost 17 years of his life in total blindness but this does not retard the output of his research

He is called the "PRINCE OF MATHEMATICS"

he is probably the best mathematician

Gauss is the greatest of all mathematicians, this has been widely agreed by 99% of mathematics community.

needed informations

Srinivasa Ramanujan definitely ranks at the top of the pile of all time greatest mathematicians. He discovered many of Euler's and other mathematicians theorems before he was 14 ! His genius was far greater than Euler /Gauss/Jacobi. Very sad that he died young.

euler is greatest :P

Self taught genius, who lived in poverty most of his life. Did not get to do much mathematics in his lifetime but still managed to compile 4000 theorems or conjectures in number theory, algebra, and combinatorics. He might be almost unknown today, but he wrote inexplicable formulae which "must be true, because if they were not true, no one would have had the imagination to invent them." Much of his methodology, including unusual ideas about divergent series, was his own invention. (As a young man he made the absurd claim that 1+2+3+4+... = -1/12. Later it was noticed that this claim translates to a true statement about the Riemann zeta function, with which Ramanujan was unfamiliar.) Ramanujan's innate ability for algebraic manipulations definitely surpassed that of Euler and Jacobi.

Sharpest mind in mathematical history. Godfrey Hardy was once asked what the greatest mathematical discovery was, to which he simply replied "the discovery of Ramanujan".

the greatest and most legendary mathematical mind that ever existed: far more powerful than the likes of Euler and Gauss.

Sorry but Archimedes is one of the best mathematicians ever, he was the best mathematician in the ancient time.He knew everything about math for two thousand years ago. He did the Archimedes principle for two thousand years ago, It´s very difficult even today to do that he did for two thousands years ago.

I think that he should be #1 in my books.

no he can´t be (7) because he is one of the best ever, for me he most be like 1-5

was a Persian mathematician, astronomer and geographer during the Abbasid Empire. Al-Khwārizmi's contributions to mathematics, geography, astronomy, and cartography established the basis for innovation in algebra and trigonometry.

Riemann Hypothesis and "N=NP?" both HAVE NOT BEEN SOLVED YET

He is indeed, sublime.

Yes he is.

not the greatest

greatest of all time.

greatest mathematician of all time

greatest of all time

he is the greatest mathematician of all time because he is only who first used zero and decimal system.

he is the best
