AUGUSTYN LOUIS CAUCHY: A GENIUS WHO REVOLUTIONIZED SCIENCE - Rosario, Abdiel Octavio Cosme Del; Ruíz, Narciso Galástica (Seven Editora, 2024)
Augustin-Louis Cauchy was a prominent mathematician of the nineteenth century whose contributions have left an indelible mark on modern mathematics and various areas of science. His pioneering approach to mathematical analysis set a new standard for rigor and clarity, revolutionizing the way mathematical problems were approached. Through his meticulous work, Cauchy laid the groundwork for many branches of mathematics, ensuring that fundamental concepts such as boundaries, continuity, and derivation were accurately understood and defined. Among his innumerable contributions, his emphasis on function theory and complex analysis stands out remarkably. Theorems such as the Cauchy-Riemann theorem and the residual theorem are essential pillars in this field. In addition, his work on differential equations and infinite series has been crucial for the development of theories that we continue to use today. Cauchy did not limit himself to advancing pure mathematics; Its impact is also felt in applied areas such as physics and engineering. His research in elasticity theory and partial differential equations has provided vital tools for practical problem-solving in these disciplines. DOI: https://doi.org/10.56238/sevened2024.037-089
