  3. Lambert W function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function

    The function is named after Johann Lambert, who considered a related problem in 1758. Building on Lambert's work, Leonhard Euler described the W function per se in 1783. [citation needed] For each integer k there is one branch, denoted by W k (z), which is a complex-valued function of one complex argument. W 0 is known as the principal branch.

  5. Proof that π is irrational - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_that_π_is_irrational

    Another proof, which is a simplification of Lambert's proof, is due to Miklós Laczkovich. Many of these are proofs by contradiction . In 1882, Ferdinand von Lindemann proved that π {\displaystyle \pi } is not just irrational, but transcendental as well.

  6. Talk:Lambert W function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Lambert_W_function

    One problem with p/m or +/- is that it is limited to only two branches, but the numerical subscript allows indexing all branches of the Lambert W function (this article fails to note this). The "old" notation is also used in computer algebra systems, which are the most important domain of use for the Lambert W function.

    Lamberto Cesari (23 September 1910 – 12 March 1990) was an Italian mathematician naturalized in the United States, known for his work on the theory of surface area, the theory of functions of bounded variation, the theory of optimal control and on the stability theory of dynamical systems: in particular, by extending the concept of Tonelli plane variation, he succeeded in introducing the ...
