    Carl Friedrich Gauss and Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann made groundbreaking contributions to mathematics, with Gauss known for his work in number theory, statistics, and the theory of Gaussian curves, as well as his contributions to electromagnetism and astronomy. Riemann, a student of Gauss, extended these ideas into new realms with his development of Riemannian geometry, which laid the foundation for Einstein’s theory of general relativity. Riemann also made significant advances in analysis and complex functions, including the Riemann hypothesis, a conjecture about the distribution of prime numbers that remains one of the most famous unsolved problems in mathematics. Their work collectively revolutionized mathematical thinking and had profound impacts across multiple scientific disciplines. They were also devout believers who incorporated their faith into every aspect of their work. Gauss said “God arithmetizes”, and Reimann saw his life as a mathematician as another way to serve God.

    What was the impact of Blaise Pascal on both the world of Mathematics and Faith? He was very outspoken and learned in both fields and had many thoughts on how the two worlds overlapped.

    What did Galileo Galilei teach about the Earth going around the sun and why did it cause such a problem with the Pope and the Catholic Church? So many people have an over simplified view of what happened between Galileo and the Catholic Church and we want to dive deep into the history of the events.

    Seth and Cesar the impact of the East in the history of mathematics. From Brahmagupta and Bhaskara II from India to Al-Khwarizmi (Al-Jabr) from the Middle East. They look at the impact these men had on math and what happened to that math when it got to the European continent.
