Eight Rare Papers on Calculus

CAUCHY, Augustin-Louis (1789–1857). “Mémoire sur la résolution générale des équations d’un degré quelconque”. [Pairs, c.1837]. [ With: ] “Mémoire sur la resolution des équations numériques et sur la théorie de l’élimination”. Paris: Bure frères, June 1829. [ With: ] “Mémoire sur la Détermination du nombre des Racines réelles dans les Équations algébriques”. Paris: L’Imprimerie royale, February 1815. [ With: ] “Calcul des indices des fonctions”. [Paris]: L’Imprimerie de Bachelier, s.d. [ With: ] “Mémoire sur les integrals définies”. Paris: Bure frères, August 1825. [ With: ] “Mémoire sur l’application du calcul des résidus”. Paris: Bure frères, February 1827. [ With: ] “Mémoire sue la dispersion de la lumière”. Paris: Bure frères, 1830. [ With: ] “Recueil des mémoire sur divers points de physique mathématique”. Paris: Bachelier, 1839. Early sammelband of eight rare Cauchy papers on calculus; in a contemporary binding. “One of the most important mathematicians of the early 19th century. His work ranged enormously in almost 800 papers, but he is chiefly remembered as one of the founders of rigorous mathematical analysis” (Oxford Dictionary of Mathematics). The binding indicates that these papers were collected together by an early reader. Eight papers in one, quarto (255 × 200mm). (Variously toned and spotted). Contemporary painted vellum over paper boards, spine tooled in gold (rubbed, few wormholes); blue cloth box.
