One of the greatest mathematicians of the nineteenth century, Carl
Gustav Jacob Jacobi (1804-51) burst into the limelight with his
redevelopment, together with Niels Henrik Abel (1802-29), of the
theory of elliptic functions. His pioneering work was characterised
by the variety of problems tackled and the power of the tools used
to tackle them. His lasting influence on rational mechanics, number
theory, partial differential equations, complex variable theory and
computation is marked by the number of fundamental concepts that
bear his name (the Jacobian, the Jacobi sum and the Jacobi symbol,
among others). His collected works, comprising treatises, letters
and papers written in German, Latin and French, were published in
eight volumes between 1881 and 1891. Edited by fellow German
mathematician Karl Weierstrass (1815-97), Volume 6 appeared in
1891.
