The Story of Maths - Rennaissance and The Frontier of Space
Part 1 introduces the Ranaissance of Mathematics with the use of perspective in Art in Italy before continuing to France to review Descartes and the linking of Algebra and Geometry in Numerical Equations. The part continues with Prime Numbers & Number Theory.
Part 2 continues in France with Number Theory before introducing Sir Isaac Newton in England and Calculus, Leibnitz & Differential and Integral Calculus, Calculating Machines & the application of Binary Systems, before continuing in Basel (in the following part).
Part 3 continues in Basel to look at the Bernoulli Family, Euler and the development of Calculus and Cycloid applications. The Documentary then continues into Russia and alchemical mathematics drawing from European Hotspots, including Humboldt, Fourrier & Gauss and modern applications such as MP3 Technology.
Part 4 continues with Gauss and Prime & Imaginary Numbers such as the Square Root of -1 ... then linking with Euclidian Geometry to describe the shape of space and finding János Bolyai who developed "Imaginary Geometry" or Hyperbolic Geomety and Lobachevsky.
InPart 5 we conclude with Bernhardt Riemann and his developments into Hyperspace, the Riemann Hypothesis & Multidimensional Space, thus bridging the space between the Renaissance and the 20th Century.
