Born November 2, 1815, Lincoln [Died] December 8, 1864. Ballintemple, Cork. British mathematician and logician. Founder of algebraic logic, also known as Boolean lattice (Boolean algebra). He only had a few years of formal education at a local school, and was mostly self-taught in mathematics. He began teaching at a village school at the age of 16, and founded a school in Lincoln, England at the age of 20. He studied the works of Newton, P. Laplace, J. Lagrange, and others in his spare time, and from 1839 he published a rapid succession of papers on algebra. In recognition of his work, he was appointed professor of mathematics at Queen's College, Cork (1849). In 1857, he was elected a member of the Royal Society. He produced an algebraic treatment of logic. Boolean algebra is now used in many fields, including computers. He also wrote a book on analysis, which was used as a textbook for many years. His major works include "Mathematical Analysis of Logic" (47), "The Laws of Thought" (54), "Treatise on Differential Equations" (59), and "The Method of Difference" (60). Boolean |
[生]1815.11.2. リンカーン [没]1864.12.8. コーク,バリンテンプル イギリスの数学者,論理学者。ブール束 (ブール代数) として知られている代数論理学の創始者。正式の教育は地方の学校に2~3年通っただけで,数学はほとんどが独学であった。 16歳のときから村の学校で教えはじめ,20歳でイングランドのリンカーンに学校を創設。余暇を見つけてニュートン,P.ラプラス,J.ラグランジュらの著作を勉強し,1839年より代数学に関する論文を矢つぎばやに発表する。これが認められてコークのクイーンズ・カレッジの数学教授に就任 (1849) 。 57年にはロイヤル・ソサエティの会員に選ばれる。彼は論理学の代数的取扱いを行なった。ブール代数は現在コンピュータをはじめ多くの分野で応用されている。また,解析学に関する著作があり,教科書として長年使用された。主著『論理学の数学的分析』 (47) ,『思考の法則』 (54) ,『微分方程式論』 (59) ,『差分法』 (60) 。 ブール
