Leonhard Euler
(15 April 1707 – 18 September 1783) was a Swiss mathematician, physicist, astronomer, geographer, logician and engineer. He founded the studies of
graph theory
and
topology
, and made pioneering and influential discoveries in many other branches of mathematics such as
analytic number theory
,
complex analysis
and
infinitesimal calculus
. Euler introduced much of modern
mathematical notation
and terminology, including the notion of a
mathematical function
. He is also known for his work in
mechanics
,
fluid dynamics
,
optics
, astronomy and
music theory
. This
pastel
-on-paper portrait of Euler was painted by the Swiss painter
Jakob Emanuel Handmann
in 1753, and is now in the collection of the
Kunstmuseum Basel
.
