Who is the most based mathematician to ever walk the Earth and why was it Isaac Newton?

This guy is pretty based too. Just read his wikipedia article.

I don't know analysis. How is this distinct from Green's Theorem?

>> No.9640213

>>9640203
the point is that this is about holomorphic functions in particular, i.e ones where the complex derivative exists at every point in a disc, from every path of convergence.

This leads on to Cauchy's integral formula that links derivatives with integrals
