Arthur Cayley (1821 1895) was a key figure in the creation of
modern algebra. He studied mathematics at Cambridge and published
three papers while still an undergraduate. He then qualified as a
lawyer and published about 250 mathematical papers during his
fourteen years at the Bar. In 1863 he took a significant salary cut
to become the first Sadleirian Professor of Pure Mathematics at
Cambridge, where he continued to publish at a phenomenal rate on
nearly every aspect of the subject, his most important work being
in matrices, geometry and abstract groups. In 1883 he became
president of the British Association for the Advancement of
Science. Publication of his Collected Papers - 967 papers in 13
volumes plus an index volume - began in 1889 and was completed
after his death under the editorship of his successor in the
Sadleirian Chair. This final volume contains 80 papers published
between 1889 and 1895.
