FTP. identify this mathematician who demonstrated in 1823 that there is no algebraic formula for the solution of a generic polynomial of the 5th degree.
This man's summation is used to compute a possibly divergent series of complex numbers, and his limit theorem states that the limit assigned to one of his convergent summations exists and agrees with the sum. The introducer of elliptic functions, he gives his name to groups in which ab [A B] equals ba [B A] for all elements in the group.
