His pioneering work was characterised by the variety of problems tackled and the power of the tools used to tackle them. His lasting influence on rational mechanics, number theory, partial differential equations, complex variable theory and computation is marked by the number of fundamental concepts that bear his name (the Jacobian, the Jacobi sum and the Jacobi symbol, among others). His collected works, comprising treatises, letters and papers written in German, Latin and French, were published in eight volumes between 1881 and 1891, edited chiefly by Karl Weierstrass (1815–97). Published in 1884, this supplementary volume contains Jacobi's 1842–3 lectures on dynamics as compiled by Alfred Clebsch (1833–72) in the revised second edition by Eduard Lottner (1826–87).\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eVorwort\u003cbr\u003e Vorlesungen über Dynamik.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: History of mathematics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on History of mathematics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22History%20of%20mathematics%20%5BPBX%5D%22\"\u003ePBX\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266136101144,"sku":"9781108059312","price":36.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108059312i_830e97e8-861b-4bfd-8782-c23f200aed58.jpg?v=1696747435","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/c-g-j-jacobis-gesammelte-werke-herausgegeben-auf-veranlassung-der-koniglich-preussischen-akademie-der-wissenschaften-paperback-9781108059312","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
