Carl Friedrich Gauss Number theory, known to Gauss as “arithmetic,” studies the properties of the integers: ... − 3,−2,−1,0,1,2,3.... Although the integers are familiar, and their properties might therefore seem simple, it is instead a very deep subject. For example, here are some problems in number theory that remain unsolved.
June 29, 2020. Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777-1855) was a German num-ber theorist who in uenced many diverse elds of math-ematics. The investigations described in this paper were rst addressed in his 1832 monograph Theoria Residuo-rum Biquadraticorum, in which Gauss laid the founda-tion for much of modern number theory.

reading. When Gauss entered the Collegium Carolinum in 1792, the Duke paid his tuition. At the Collegium, Gauss studied the works of Newton, Euler, and Lagrange. His investigations on the distribution of primes in 1792 or 1793 give an early indication of his interest in number theory. He also developed his strong love of languages:

Apr 30, 2024 · Gauss published works on number theory, the mathematical theory of map construction, and many other subjects. In the 1830s he became interested in terrestrial magnetism and participated in the first worldwide survey of the Earth’s magnetic field (to measure it, he invented the magnetometer).
