Anyone who make his contribution to mathematics is greatest

[Abhishek-eqez]

1.Leonhard Euler And Carl Gauss
2.David Hilbert
3.Bernhard Reimann
4.Srinivasa ramanujan
5.Terence Tao

[MadScientyst]

'Greatest' can be defined in so many ways (IMHO) as follows:
*Achievements - Newton (1st to be knighted & truly a multi-discipline Scientist)
*Range of expertise & Publications - Euler ('The Master of us all')
*Range of expertise & Applications - Gauss (The Prince) & Leibniz (universal prodigy)
*Creativity & exposition - Ramanujan, Erdos, Cauchy
*Further Development & improvement - French (Larange, Laplace, Fourier)
*Further Development & improvement - German (Riemann, Weierstrass, Jacobi)
*Further Development & improvement - Russian (Lobachevsky, Chebyshev, Perelman)
*Further Development & improvement - English/UK (Hamilton, Hardy, Cayley, Sylvester)
*Mastery of several disciplines - Hilbert & Poincare > Physicist
*Historical structure & direction - Greeks (Archimedes, Euclid, Pythagoras) & Arabic
*Prodigious youth lost too quickly - Abel, Galois, Pascal
*Women - Definitely needs an ENTIRE separate list

Note the omission of 'mainly' Astronomers, Comp Sci, Engineers & Physicists ( eg. Herschel, Einstein, Hawking, Tesla, Mandelbrot, Neumann, Turing)
Think they'd need a separate list as well.

There's a so-called 'Super Scientist' class, but it normally includes the overall study of Science, so one could see names like Faraday, Maxwell, Galileo, Darwin, DaVinci, etc

Forgive me guys, Im a historical Math/Scientific biographer, so went off on a little 'TANGENT' there...LOL!
There are many interesting omissions but again this is IMHO, so hope no one is offended.
Hope it was inspiring to influence others into researching their personal faves all the same.
Isn't Mathematics simply beautiful?

I consider Ramanujan because He came to all the modern theorems without any or "0" Formal education in math, literally zero education, he played with numbers brought many things to maths and even found theorems that are used today to explain physics of blackholes and he lived a very short life i guess it was in his 30's when he died, think if he lived how much he would have brought to the world. 😊

I've been reading the comments, suprised to see that there's no Von Neumann.

[ServusDei]

1. Pythagoras
2. Euclides
3. Newton

- Pythagoras founded it
- Euclide's Elements were the Geometry textbook for 2.000 years and it's the base for every other mathematical theory
- Newton founded Calculus while he was in quarantine

J Fourier...for his series and transforms. Wayyy ahead of his time.

[bernardofitzpatrick]

Alexander Grothendieck , Grigori Perelman, Emmy Noether, Ed Witten (tho primarily a physicist ) my favorite mathematicians. .

[telesniper]

Paul Erdős and Atle Selberg wrote elementary proofs of the Prime Number Theorem. That is a highly underrated accomplishment.

[brazillianphysicist]

Évariste Galois, the guy died at age 20 in a duel. Before that he basically created group theory, and I think he was definetely the craziest mathematician ever. Just Google the reason of his duel.

[ralphhebgen]

I cant pick a GOAT. But I will mention Bernhard Riemann. His paper of 1859 (just one example) is written with fearless originality and in apparent ignorance of his own mental powers - he typically merely sketches out the thought process that led him to his results, and in many occasions it has taken other genii decades to prove that he was right.

[ajayraghav]

My favourite was mathematician and logician Kurt Gödel who was famous for his uncertainty theorem

[wickz]

Two people come to mind... Gauss and The Math Sorcerer 🔥

[GastevAleksei]

Alan Turing was great as well. He was a pioneer of modern computing and also helped cracking Enigma in WWII.

[studyhelp]

Everyone becomes Students in front of MATHEMATICS

[cristomx]

George Boole is probably the most underrated contemporary mathematician. His work is the base of digital logic and computer science, hence the current digital revolution technology wouldn't be possible without his contribution.

[martinhawrylkiewicz]

For Prof Halmos is my greatest Mathematician and a source of inspiration... Every time I get stuck on a problem, I just look at his quote about studying math.... "Don't just read it.... Fight it!...."

[GregWang]

Lars Hörmander and Victor Guillemin, they are definitely my math heroes

[prashastidubey]

Sir Isaac Newton is the favourite of mine.

[mohamednourein]

I can't see one mentioned one of the greatest, John Von Neumann
