Comparing Two Mathematicians Shiing-shenChern Austen Lo Y8 Care Pierre-Simon marquis de Laplace
Shiing-shenChern • He is a Chinese • Differential Geometry • Show Unknowns in 3D graph • The key is plain curves, surfaces and abstract manifolds • Wolf Prize, Shaw Prize and Nation Medal of Sceince • Shiing-shenChernPrize are created.(only for Chinese)
Pierre-Simon marquis de Laplace • French mathematician and astronomer • Sequence of planets • Laplace’s Equation • Isaac Newton in France • How does electric field and the gravitational field works.
Similarities • Both of their research contain equations • They help to develop math in their living time
Differences • Geometry • Space/gravity • Different era • Prize • Asteroid 4628 Laplace, “Europa Jupiter System Mission” Laplace
