Ramanujan's lost notebook is the manuscript in which the Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan recorded the mathematical discoveries of the last year (1919–1920) of his life. Its whereabouts were unknown to all but a few mathematicians until it was rediscovered by George Andrews in 1976, in a box of effects of G. N. Watson stored at the ...
Srinivasa Ramanujan Aiyangar [a] (22 December 1887 – 26 April 1920) was an Indian mathematician.Often regarded as one of the greatest mathematicians of all time, 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 ...
He subsequently spent many years on Ramanujan's formulae in the area of modular equations, mock theta functions [9] and q-series, and for some time looked after Ramanujan's lost notebook. Sometime in the late 1920s, G. N. Watson and B. M. Wilson began the task of editing Ramanujan's notebooks. The second notebook, being a revised, enlarged ...
Bruce Carl Berndt (born March 13, 1939) is an American mathematician.Berndt attended college at Albion College, graduating in 1961, where he also ran track.He received his master's and doctoral degrees from the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
The second notebook is a revised enlargement of the first and was probably composed during the nine months that Ramanujan held a scholarship at the University of Madras prior to his departure from England. This notebook contains 21 chapters, comprising 256 pages, followed by 100 pages of miscellaneous material.
