But if we look at our daily lives, maths is a huge part of it. Our life would be incomplete without maths, ever wondered how? From cutting equal slices of cake to measuring weight or height, maths is involved in doing everything. Have you ever wondered how these magical mathematical concepts arrived & the people behind their invention? Let us tell you about remarkable Indian Mathematicians who are celebrated on mathematics day:

    Calyampudi Radhakrishna Rao, popularly known as C R Rao is a well-known statistician, famous for his “theory of estimation”. His contributions to statistical theory and applications are well known, and many of his results, which bear his name, are included in the curriculum of courses in statistics at bachelor’s and master’s levels all over the world.
    Famous Indian Mathematician Dattaraya Ramchandra Kaprekar

                                                              D.R. KAPREKAR  

    Dattaraya Ramchandra Kaprekar was an Indian recreational mathematician who described several classes of natural numbers including the Kaprekar, Harshad and self-numbers and discovered the Kaprekar constant, named after him. Without any formal mathematical education, he published extensively and was very well-known in the recreational mathematics circle.

    HARISH CHANDRA Mathematician from India

                                                             HARISH CHANDRA   

    Harish-Chandra FRS was an Indian American mathematician and physicist who did fundamental work in representation theory, especially harmonic analysis on semisimple Lie groups.

     

    SATYENDRA NATH BOSE

                                                       SATYENDRA NATH BOSE   

    Known for his collaboration with Albert Einstein, Satyendra Nath Bose established modern theoretical physics in India. Bose made significant advances in statistical mechanics and quantum statistics, the description of all forces by single field theory, x-ray diffraction, and the interaction of electromagnetic waves with the ionosphere.

    BHASKARA

                                                                  BHASKARA 

    Bhaskara, an Indian astronomer, and mathematician helped to disseminate the mathematical work of Aryabhata. He was the one who declared that any number divided by zero is infinity and that the sum of any number and infinity is also infinity. He is also famous for his book “Siddhanta Siromani”.

    NARENDRA KARMARKAR

                                                     NARENDRA KARMARKAR 

    Karmarkar’s algorithm is an algorithm introduced by Narendra Karmarkar in 1984 for solving linear programming problems. He is also listed as an ISI highly cited researcher.</span

    Apart from the above-mentioned, there are many other famous Indian mathematicians who contributed to the origin of mathematics. They have made several contributions to mathematics that have significantly influenced scientists and mathematicians in the modern era.

    Did you know? Mathematics also plays an important role in IIT-JEE preparation along with numerous other entrance examinations on both national and international levels. The latest technological developments have led to a drastic change in the way mathematics is taught to engineering students, as it now includes the usage of modern techniques based on old methodologies. 

    FAQs About Indian Mathematicians

        Hi Ayush,

        Thanks for your query.
        The discovery of Zero is the greatest abstraction of the human mind. It is not wrong to say that the concept or the invention of zero was revolutionary in mathematics. Zero is a symbol for the concept of nothingness. Now a day’s zero both as a numeric symbol and a concept help us to do calculus, in solving complicated equations.
        Zero became an important part of the number system in India. Brahmagupta a scholar and mathematician in AD 628 first time defined zero and its operation and developed a symbol for it which is a dot underneath the numbers. He had also written rules for mathematical operations like addition and subtraction using zero. Then, Aryabhatta a great mathematician and an astronomer used zero in the decimal system.
