Biographies

Srinivasa Ramanujan was an Indian mathematician who lived during the British Rule in India. Though he had almost no formal training in pure mathematics, he made substantial contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions, including solutions to mathematical problems then considered unsolvable. Ramanujan initially developed his own mathematical research in isolation: according to Hans Eysenck: "He tried to interest the leading professional mathematicians in his work, but failed for the most part. What he had to show them was too novel, too unfamiliar, and additionally presented in unusual ways; they could not be bothered". Seeking mathematicians who could better understand his work, in 1913 he began a postal correspondence with the English mathematician G. H. Hardy at the University of Cambridge, England. Recognising Ramanujan's work as extraordinary, Hardy arranged for him to travel to Cambridge. In his notes, Hardy commented that Ramanujan had produced groundbreaking new theorems, including some that "defeated me completely; I had never seen anything in the least like them before", and some recently proven but highly advanced results. During his short life, Ramanujan independently compiled nearly 3,900 results (mostly identities and equations). Many were completely novel; his original and highly unconventional results, such as the Ramanujan prime, the Ramanujan theta function, partition formulae and mock theta functions, have opened entire new areas of work and inspired a vast amount of further research. Of his thousands of results, all but a dozen or two have now been proven correct. The Ramanujan Journal, a scientific journal, was established to publish work in all areas of mathematics influenced by Ramanujan, and his notebooks—containing summaries of his published and unpublished results—have been analysed and studied for decades since his death as a source of new mathematical ideas. As late as 2012, researchers continued to discover that mere comments in his writings about "simple properties" and "similar outputs" for certain findings were themselves profound and subtle number theory results that remained unsuspected until nearly a century after his death.

சீனிவாச இராமானுஜன் இந்தியாவில் தமிழ்நாட்டில் ஈரோடு மாவட்டத்தில் கோட்டை பகுதியில் பிறந்த கணித அறிஞர் ஆவார். இவர் தனது 33 அகவை முடியும் முன்னரே இறந்துவிட்டார். இவர் சிறு வயதிலேயே யாருடைய உதவியும் இல்லாமல் மிக மிக வியப்பூட்டும் விதத்தில் கணிதத்தின் மிக அடிப்படையான ஆழ் உண்மைகளைக் கண்டுணர்ந்தார். 1914-ஆம் ஆண்டுக்கும், 1918-ஆம் ஆண்டுக்கும் இடைப்பட்ட காலத்தில் மூவாயிரத்திற்கும் அதிகமான புதுக் கணிதத் தேற்றங்களைக் கண்டுபிடித்தார். எண்களின் பண்புகளைப் பற்றிய எண் கோட்பாடுகளிலும், செறிவெண் கோட்பாடுகளிலும் இவர் கண்டுபிடித்துக் கூறிய ஆழ் உண்மைகள் இன்று அடிப்படை இயற்பியற் துறை முதல் மின்தொடர்புப் பொறியியல் துறை வரை பல துறைகளில் உயர்மட்டங்களில் பயன்படுத்தப்பட்டு வருகின்றன. இராமானுஜனின் பெயரால் 1997 இல் The Ramanujan Journal என்னும் கணித ஆய்விதழ் ஒன்று தொடங்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. இத்தகைய சிறப்பு மிக்க கணிதத்தின் தந்தை சீனிவாச இராமானுசன் பற்றி பேராசிரியர் முனைவர் கு.ஞானசம்பந்தன் விரிவாக விவரிக்கிறார்.
