Hieronymus Brillinger. 30.9.1469 à Bâle, apr. le 10.1.1537 à Fribourg-en-Brisgau Fils de Kaspar, procureur au tribunal épiscopal, et de Clara. Diacre en 1482, immatriculé à l'université de Bâle en 1485, proviseur de l'école de la cathédrale en 1487. Chapelain de Saint-Pierre (1492) et du chapitre (1502). Recteur de l'université en 1505. En 1510 il fouilla la tombe de la reine Anne, première épouse de l'empereur Rodolphe Ier, enterrée dans la cathédrale, et transféra sa couronne dans le trésor de l'église.
Lecture 1: Some history and some background Meant to be a succession of motivating examples, questions and methods Data sets and their analysis "trajectories" and "trajectoires" are old words for "processes" E.g. Loève (1955), p. 500: "The values Xt() at of a random function Xt will be called sample functions or trajectories or paths of the random function; ..." Here there is a moving particle and t is physical time.
Trajectoire. La ligne décrite par n'importe quel point d'un objet en mouvement, et notamment par son centre de gravité. Astronomie. La courbe que décrit le centre de gravité d'une planète accomplissant sa révolution autour du soleil, ou d'un satellite autour d'une planète. Physique des particules. Le trajet d'une particule élémentaire, ou d'un élément émis à partir d'une source de rayonnement. Ingénierie. En balistiqu la trajectoire est la courbe que décrit le centre de gravité d'un projectile pendant son trajet dans l'espace. Ecologie. On parle de trajectométrie pour signifier l'étude des déplacements des animaux. Ceux-ci peuvent être suivis directement ou équipés d'émetteurs / récepteur GPS ou d'émetteurs VHF.
Mathématiques. L'ensemble des positions successives occupées par ce point au cours du temps. • On introduit le formalisme des arcs paramétrés pour décrire d'une part la trajectoire, d'autre part la façon dont elle est parcourue, ou paramétrage. • Des résultats mathématiques établissent des différences fondamentales entre les trajectoires possibles d'une masse ponctuelle sur différentes surface: • le long d'une ligne, où par exemple une marche aléatoire repasse presque partout presque surement • sur une surface (en deux dimensions), et plus spécifiquement sur un plan, une sphère, un tore • dans un volume

1. Planets move in ellipses with the Sun at one focus. 2. The radius vector describes equal areas in equal times. 3. The squares of the periodic times are to each other as the cubes of the mean distances.
Isaac Newton 1642 – 1727 Inferred mechanisms underlying celestial motions, laws
Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed on it. • The change of motion is proportional to the motive force impressed; and is made in the direction of the right line in which that force is impressed. • F: force, m: mass, a: acceleration F = ma = mÿ • 3. For every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force. • Understanding motion required the development of calculus
Joseph-Louis Lagrange 1736 – 1813 Lagrangian. Equations of motion found by differentiating a potential/action function.

Elephant seals range over vast areas of the Eastern North Pacific between California rookeries and distant foraging areas. How do they navigate? Perhaps they follow great circle paths.
