De Solutione Problematum Diophanteorum Per Numeros Integros, Leonhard Euler Dec 1737

De Solutione Problematum Diophanteorum Per Numeros Integros, Leonhard Euler

All Works by Eneström Number

Euler searches for integer solutions to axx+bx+c=yy and considers some applications to figurate numbers.

Mechanica, Volume 1, Leonhard Euler

All Works by Eneström Number

Mechanica (this volume, along with E16) is Euler's outline of a program of studies embracing every branch of science, involving a systematic application of analysis. It laid the foundations of analytical mechanics, the result of Euler's consideration of the motion produced by forces acting on both free and constrained points. It was also the first published work in which the number e appeared. This volume focuses on the kinematics and dynamics of a point-mass, introducing infinitely small bodies that can be considered to be points under certain assumptions. Euler focuses on single mass-points except for a few pages at …
