Indian mathematics emerged in the Indian subcontinent from 1200 BC to the 18th century. During the classical period from 400 to 1200 AD, important mathematicians included Aryabhata, Brahmagupta, and Bhaskara II. They contributed to the development of concepts like zero, negative numbers, and algebra. This period is considered the golden age of Indian mathematics. Later mathematicians such as Varahamihira, Brahmagupta, Bhaskara I, and Bhaskara II expanded on many branches of mathematics. Their works spread and influenced mathematics in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.
2. HISTORY
O Indian mathematics emerged in the Indian
subcontinent from 1200 BC until the end of the
18th century. In the classical period of Indian
mathematics (400 AD to 1200 AD), important
contributions were made by scholars like
Aryabhata, Brahmagupta, and Bhaskara II. The
decimal number system in use today was first
recorded in Indian mathematics Indian
mathematicians made early contributions to the
study of the concept of zero as a number
negative numbers arithmetic, and algebra In
addition, trigonometry was further advanced in
India, and, in particular, the modern definitions of
3. HISTORY
O This period is often known as the golden
age of Indian Mathematics. This period
saw mathematicians such as Aryabhata,
Varahamihira, Brahmagupta, Bhaskara I,
Mahavira, and Bhaskara II give broader
and clearer shape to many branches of
mathematics. Their contributions would
spread to Asia, the Middle East, and
eventually to Europe. Unlike Vedic
mathematics, their works included both
astronomical and mathematical
contributions.

ax + by = c. Here a, b, and c are whole numbers, and we seeking values of x and y in whole numbers
satisfying the above equation. For example if a = 5, b =2, and c =8 then x =8 and y = -16 is a solution.

O BORN: 505 CE
O DIED: 587 CE
O Was an astronomer,
mathematician & astrological
researcher.
9. BRAHMAGUPTA
O In the 7th century, two separate fields, arithmetic
and algebra, began to emerge in Indian
mathematics. The two fields would later be called
pāṭī-gaṇita and bīja-gaṇita Brahmagupta, in his
astronomical work BrāhmaSphuṭaSiddhānta (628
CE), included two chapters (12 and 18) devoted to
these fields. Chapter 12, containing 66 Sanskrit
verses, was divided into two sections: "basic
operations" (including cube roots, fractions, ratio
and proportion, and barter) and "practical
mathematics" (including mixture, mathematical
series, plane figures, stacking bricks, sawing of
timber, and piling of grain). In the latter section, he
stated his famous theorem on the diagonals of a
cyclic quadrilateral.

Seventh and eighth centuries
Brahmagupta's theorem states that AF = FD.
In the 7th century, two separate fields, arithmetic (which included mensuration) and algebra, began to
emerge in Indian mathematics. The two fields would later be called pāṭī-gaṇita (literally "mathematics
of algorithms") and bīja-gaṇita (lit. "mathematics of seeds," with

Ramanujan is said to have stated on the spot that it was actually a
very interesting number mathematically, being the smallest natural
number representable in two different ways as a sum of two positive
cubes:
15. HARISH CHANDRA
O Harish-Chandra (1923- 83) is
perhaps the least known Indian
mathematician outside of
mathematical circles. He began his
career as a physicist, working
under Dirac. In his thesis, he
worked on the representation
theory of the group SL2 (C).
