Linear differential equations and group theory from Riemann to Poincaré
Linear differential equations and group theory from Riemann to Poincaré
About this book
"This book is a study of how a particular vision of the unity of mathematics, often called geometric function theory, was created in the 19th century. The central focus is on the convergence of three mathematical topics: the hypergeometric and related linear differential equations, group theory, and non-Euclidean geometry."--BOOK JACKET.
