Category:Named Theorems/Nicomachus

From ProofWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This category contains results named for Nicomachus of Gerasa.

Neo-Pythagorean about whom very little is known.

Unusual in that he used the system of Arabic numerals rather than the then-current cumbersome Roman numerals.

Famously made some conjectures about perfect numbers which were soon shown to be false.

Appears to have had more influence than his (perhaps limited) abilities may have merited.
