Abstract: Throughout his working life Henri Poincaré was concerned to promote the understanding of mathematics and physics. This is as apparent in his views about geometry, his conventionalism, and his theory of knowledge, as it is in his work on electricity and optics, on number theory, and function theory. This talk will argue that this is one of the ways Poincaré discharged his responsibilities as a scientist, and that it accounts not only for a surprising degree of unity in his work but also gives it its distinctive character -- at once profound and elusive.Note(s) Biographique(s)
Jeremy Gray est un mathématicien anglais. Il s'intéresse principalement à l'histoire des mathématiques. Il a étudié les mathématiques à l'Université d'Oxford de 1966 à 1969, puis à l'Université de Warwick où il obtient sa thèse en 1980. Il enseigne l'histoire des mathématiques à l'Open University ainsi qu'à l'Université de Warwick depuis 2000.
Il s'intéresse à diverses branches de l'histoire des mathématiques. Toutefois, ses principaux domaines de recherche sont l'histoire de la théorie des fonctions complexes, la géométrie projective et non-euclidienne, et la vie d'Henri Poincaré et de travail.
