This memoir, written by a mathematician who specialises in symplectic geometry and integrable systems, is a personal exploration of the life, the writings and the mathematical achievements of a remarkable woman. It emphasises the originality of Kovalevskaya’s work and assesses her legacy and reputation as a mathematician and scientist. Her ideas are explained in a way that is accessible to a general audience, with diagrams, marginal notes and commentary to help explain the mathematical concepts and provide context. This fascinating book, which also examines Kovalevskaya’s love of literature, will be of interest to historians looking for a treatment of the mathematics, and those doing feminist or gender studies. | | 出版日期 | Book 2011 | | 关键词 | 19th century mathematics; Sofya Kovalevskaya | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-85729-929-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4471-6935-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-0-85729-929-1 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag London Limited 2011 |
