Évariste Galois was a French mathematician born on 25 October 1811 in Bourg-la-Reine, France. He is best known for his work in mathematics that laid the foundation for Galois theory.

Early Life[edit | edit source]

Évariste Galois showed exceptional talent in mathematics from a young age. He attended the prestigious École Normale Supérieure in Paris, where he began to develop his revolutionary ideas in algebra.

Contributions to Mathematics[edit | edit source]

Galois made significant contributions to the field of mathematics, particularly in the area of abstract algebra. His work on the theory of equations and group theory revolutionized the way mathematicians approached these subjects. Galois theory, which he developed at a young age, has had a profound impact on modern algebra and number theory.

Legacy[edit | edit source]

Despite his short life, Évariste Galois left a lasting legacy in mathematics. His ideas and theories continue to influence mathematicians and researchers to this day. Galois is remembered as a brilliant and innovative mathematician who made fundamental contributions to the field.

Death[edit | edit source]

Tragically, Évariste Galois died on 31 May 1832 in Paris, France, at the young age of 20. His death was the result of a duel, adding a sense of mystery and intrigue to his already legendary story.
