A (very) Brief History of Srinivasa Ramanujan

Описание к видео A (very) Brief History of Srinivasa Ramanujan

In this episode, we cover the history of Srinivasa Ramanujan, an Indian mathematician who made substantial contributions to analytic number theory, infinite series and continued fractions. For his short time on this earth, it's pretty wild how many results he produced in his notebooks, and the fact that active areas of research sprouted from them, with mathematicians spending a good part of the 20th century trying to prove his results.

As per usual, I don't go too deeply into the mathematics, focusing primarily on the history of the Ramanujan.
