Ramanujan had an extraordinary ability to see patterns. While he rarely proved his results he left a host of evaluations of sums and integrals. He was especially expert in a part of number theory called modular forms which is of even more interest today than when he died. The lost notebook initiated the study of mock theta functions which are only ...
Ramanujan has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My father David was a student of one of Hardy’s students. In our house “the bible” referred to Hardy’s masterpiece Divergent Series. In 1962 on the 75th anniversary of Ramanujan’s birth the envelope (below) arrived at my parents’ house. A kind stranger had put the franked stamps on t...
There is one famous anecdote about Ramanujan that even a non-mathematician can appreciate. In 1917 Ramanujan was hospitalised in London.

When I have read the book on someone’s life, I fre...

The other romantic mathematician I alluded to earlier was the even more short-lived French revolutionary Évariste Galois. Galois (1811–1832) died, aged 20, in a duel related to the famous female mathematician Sophie Germain. As the story goes, there is a note in the margin of the manuscript that Galois wrote the night before the duel. It read: It i...
