Marie Curie, de Broglie et Descartes

il y a du choix

>>11634958
Fourrier et Poincaré sont des costauds, mais je pense que Curie est la plus importante.

>>11634929

I have a historical interest in "French" mathematics but I'm slightly leery of describing mathematicians as scientists, though they certainly work in "the sciences".

>>11634929
Moi

>>11634929
moi chpense que c'est curie, ou pt galois

Poincaré no doubt, he has made deep contributions to several fields and I absolutely see him as one of the founders of modern mathematics

>>11635381
if galois was so great, why did he lose the duel?

>>11634929
The french used to be great. I love french culture. You guys need to do something about the number of immigrants. The absolute state of Paris. Your country is becoming a shithole!

This. No one would have believed in the last years of the twentieth century that the racist white bourgeois elite of France would literally get replaced by a black rapist caliphate. Well, no one is laughing now!

If we want to bring up mathematicians, France has a good assortment, including Fermat, Cauchy, Pascal, Fourier and Descartes to name a few.

>>11635442
shut up poltard, you prefer living in america where everybody is fat and retarded ?

C'est depend. Greatness is largely subjective and the kind of things that can be done in different times are different. You could take someone like Cauchy or Riemann, get him up to date and watch them do some obscure research in complex geometry that hardly anyone cares about outside of a few ppl who work in the field.

me, I was born in paris

Jean Buridan

Cédric Villani. Not because of any groundbreaking research or anything, he just seems to be a swell guy.

Bon sang mais faites le taire

>>11640133
heureusement qu'il s'est fait rekt de la mairie de paris... Qu'il retourne à l'IHP au moins il faisait un truc utile

Poincaré was pretty great
also Cartan, his views on geometry are inspiring

>>11634929
bourbaki

Fresnel

>>11640497
then they fuck up math teaching
good job

>>11639196
Im not american. America never had any culture so theres nothing to preserve there.

>>11635381
c'est trop con ce reponse. galois est pas meme un scientist

I like de Broglie. I don't know what he did as a physicist but I know he was a duke from an old and famous noble family and I think that's pretty cool.

Cauchy

>>11634929
Descartes for his time was unparalleled

>>11634958
does curie even count as french if she created an element called polonium?

>>11635442
French here. You're 100% right.

Paris and other large cities (Nantes, Marseille) are fucked beyond salvation. Mass immigration was only the final nail in the coffin. Americanization of the youth was the real problem here. We now have faggots who wait 3 hours in line just to get McDonald's. A fucking disgrace.


French countryside is based though.

No way. That was just superficial. Enjoying burgers or hollywood movies doesn't change much of your culture. This does.

>>11643866
Can someone translate what the chart says?

Evolution of the sickle cell disease rate among infants.
A disease mostly n**** get.
My home region, Brittany is the least affected one.
Vive la Bretagne!

>>11643874
Those are the percentages of newborns that are tested for sickle-cell disease among the total number of newborns.
Since that disease is only really present in african-decended, middle eastern and indian populations, and since it only appears when the kids get two diseased alleles, maternity centers only test the children whose TWO parents are black, arab or indian.

So about 38,85% of newborns in france in 2015 had two african, middle eastern or indian parents. 73,40% in the Paris region.

Brittany is probably the best part of France.

t. Mayennais

>>11643934
Either that or Alsace.
t. totally not Alsacien

Rarely been there, I've visited Nancy and Epinal a couple times though.
Heard the pandemic was pretty serious up there.

The bloke who invented the Metre is the greatest French scientist.

Americanization is cancer and will cause the collapse of society

>>11645968
You are right

Oy vey no americanization goood
