It is a title of Krishna, referring to his lineage as 'he who appeared the Madhu dynasty'. [1] Vishnu, the bearer of the epithet
Madhava's correction term is a mathematical expression attributed to Madhava of Sangamagrama (c. 1340 – c. 1425), the founder of the Kerala school of astronomy and mathematics, that can be used to give a better approximation to the value of the mathematical constant π (pi) than the partial sum approximation obtained by truncating the Madhava–Leibniz infinite series for π.

In mathematics, the Leibniz formula for π, named after Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, states that = + + = = +,. an alternating series.. It is sometimes called the Madhava–Leibniz series as it was first discovered by the Indian mathematician Madhava of Sangamagrama or his followers in the 14th–15th century (see Madhava series), [1] and was later independently rediscovered by James Gregory in ...

The chaturvimshatimurti are all represented as standing and holding the four attributes of Vishnu: the Sudarshana Chakra (discus), Panchajanya (conch), Kaumodaki (mace), and Padma (lotus). Symbolising the deity's different visible forms, the only difference between these images is the order of the emblems held by his four hands . [ 5 ]
Yuktibhāṣā contains a derivation and proof for the power series of inverse tangent, discovered by Madhava. [5] In the text, Jyesthadeva describes Madhava's series in the following manner: The first term is the product of the given sine and radius of the desired arc divided by the cosine of the arc.
