Description:
This rare treatise by Hahaviracharya focuses on the significant advancements in Indian algebra, particularly highlighting Mahavira's contributions.
• Mahavira was a Jain mathematician who authored Ganitasarasangraha ("Compendium of the Essence of Mathematics") during the reign of Amoghavarsha (c. 814–878) of the Rashtrakuta dynasty.
• The work consists of over 1,130 versified rules and examples, divided into nine chapters, covering topics like terminology, basic operations, fraction reductions, equations, proportionality, mixture problems, geometric computations, and trigonometric calculations.
• Mahavira's innovative approaches, especially in the fields of rational triangles and quadrilaterals, set his work apart from his predecessors, particularly Brahmagupta.
• His contributions greatly influenced the development of mathematics in India and secured a vital place in the history of Indian mathematical thought.
