EDITORS COMMENTS
Antonio Maria Bordoni (1789-1860): A Pioneering Italian Mathematician and the Founder of the Mathematical School of Pavia This statue pays tribute to the remarkable life and groundbreaking contributions of Antonio Maria Bordoni, an Italian mathematician who is widely regarded as the founder of the Mathematical School of Pavia. Born in the Lombardy region of Italy in 1789, Bordoni dedicated his life to the pursuit of mathematical knowledge, making significant strides in the fields of analysis, geometry, and mechanics. Bordoni's career began at the University of Pavia, where he rose through the ranks to become a respected faculty member and eventually the head of the mathematics department. His innovative research and teaching methods helped establish Pavia as a leading center for mathematical studies in Europe during the 19th century. Bordoni's most notable works include his contributions to the fields of analysis and mechanics. He is best known for his research on the calculus of variations, a branch of mathematics that deals with finding the function that minimizes or maximizes a given quantity. His work in mechanics, specifically his studies on elasticity and the behavior of materials under stress, laid the groundwork for further advancements in engineering and physics. This statue, proudly displayed at the University of Pavia, serves as a reminder of Bordoni's enduring legacy in the world of mathematics. His pioneering research and dedication to teaching inspired generations of mathematicians and scientists, cementing his place as a personage of great importance in the history of science and mathematics in Italy and Europe.
