Joseph-Louis Lagrange [a] (born Giuseppe Luigi Lagrangia [5] [b] or Giuseppe Ludovico De la Grange Tournier; [6] [c] 25 January 1736 – 10 April 1813), also reported as Giuseppe Luigi Lagrange [7] or Lagrangia, [8] was an Italian mathematician, physicist and astronomer, later naturalized French.
One foundational root of group theory was the quest of solutions of polynomial equations of degree higher than 4. An early source occurs in the problem of forming an equation of degree m having as its roots m of the roots of a given equation of degree >. For simple cases, the problem goes back to Johann van Waveren Hudde (1659). [4]
There are five Lagrange points for the Sun–Earth system, and five different Lagrange points for the Earth–Moon system. L 1 , L 2 , and L 3 are on the line through the centers of the two large bodies, while L 4 and L 5 each act as the third vertex of an equilateral triangle formed with the centers of the two large bodies.

Several concepts from mathematics and physics are named after the mathematician and astronomer Joseph-Louis Lagrange, as are a crater on the Moon and a street in Paris. Lagrangian [ edit ]

In doing so, he discovered a connection between Riemann zeta function and prime numbers, known as the Euler product formula for the Riemann zeta function. Euler proved Newton's identities, Fermat's little theorem, Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares, and made distinct contributions to the Lagrange's four-square theorem.
