Johannes de Tinemue's Redaction of Euclid's Elements, the by H. L. L. Busard

By H. L. L. Busard

Euklids Hauptwerk, die Elemente, gilt als dasjenige wissenschaftliche Werk, das am häufigsten bearbeitet und benutzt wurde; es battle ueber 2000 Jahre lang nicht nur das mathematische Lehrbuch schlechthin, sondern es beeinfluáte auch die Entwicklung anderer wissenschaftlicher Disziplinen. Das Werk wurde im 12. Jahrhundert aus dem Arabischen ins Lateinische uebersetzt, u.a. von Adelhard von bathtub. Diese Übersetzung wurde der Ausgangspunkt fuer zahlreiche weitere Bearbeitungen, wie die Redaktion, die um 1200 wahrscheinlich von Johannes de Tinemue angefertigt wurde. Campanus, der in den Jahren 1255/59 die fuer Jahrhunderte maágebende Euklid-Ausgabe besorgte, hat diese Redaktion sehr wahrscheinlich auch gekannt. "It is remember that that the well known Euclid editor Busard has back discovered a masterly edition." Mathematical reports "àBusard's version is critical for our knowing of excessive medieval arithmetic. " Centaurus.

Example text

Proof: Let A be left invertible. Then there is an n x n matrix B such that BA = I<

Then H is cogredient to a diagonal matrix (ai \ I I' \ o 2 and that the proposition holds for all (n — 1) x (n — 1) hermitian matrices. If H = 0, our proposition holds automatically. If H =fi 0, we can assume that fin ^ 0. In fact, if An = 0, but there is a nonzero diagonal element ha with i > 1, then interchanging the first and the z-th 38 Chapter 1.

Since S is nonalterate, there is a nonzero diagonal element of 5, say s u ^ 0. Interchanging the first row and the i-th row of S and the first column and the i-th column of S simultaneously, we obtain a symmetric matrix which is cogredient to S and whose element at (1, 1) position is nonzero. Therefore we can assume that s u ^ 0. Write 5 = | ( 311 u V 522 / where U u — and5*22 S22= =(St*)2 Then S is cogredient = (512, (Si2,"• •• •, S, l5i n )n )and r ( l1 5SuU n w \ \ /( 5n Sll V I' jy'u \ ) '« { - 1 uu \ \ (( 11 sjs^u !
