Johann van Waveren Hudde
Johann van Waveren Hudde (April 23rd 1628 with Amsterdam - April 15th 1704 with Amsterdam) is a Mathématicien Dutch, which worked on the Théorie of the equations.
Johann Hudde was at the base student in right to the Université of Leyde; it however was informed with mathematics by its professor, Frans van Schooten. From 1654 to 1663, he worked with him in research in Géométrie, and it is during this period that he worked out all his mathematical works. As from 1663, it started to work like city council man with Amsterdam, and this for 30 years.
Its work concerned the equations first of all, with a method of research of the multiple roots in an equation. It would seem that the development that one learns nowadays from the Méthode of Cardan joint comes from him (to pose X = U + v…). It carried out a translation of the Geometry of Descartes.
He moreover worked on the minima and the maximum ones, the use of the minus coefficients, the probabilities on the subject of which he maintained a correspondence with Leibniz; one owes him finally the development in series of ln (1+x) in 1656.
In the field of physics, he worked on the work of the telescopes, and the maintenance of the channels, a problem then of topicality in Holland: it is in 1657 qu ' it manages to block the French Army by flooding part of the territory boldly.
