Editorial

Dear Readers…

Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887-1920) is one of the greatest Mathematicians of the twentieth century. Well known mathematicians Professors G.H. Hardy and J.E. Littlewood compared Ramajuan’s mathematical abilities and natural genius with all-time great mathematicians like Leonhard Euler, Carl Friedrich Gauss and Karl Gustav Jacobi.

The influence of Ramanujan on number theory is without parallel in mathematics. His papers, problems and letters would continue to captivate mathematicians in the future. He rediscovered a century of mathematics and made new discoveries. Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887-1920)

In recognition of his contribution to mathematics, the Indian government has decided to celebrate Ramajuan’s birthday (22 December) as the National Mathematics Day every year and declared 2012 as the National Mathematical Year.The National Mathematical Year should be seen as an opportunity to make people aware of India’s mathematical heritage and to create an environment conducive for learning and pursuit of mathematical ideas so that India can reclaim its pre-eminent positions in the world of mathematics.

I JONS wish all mathematical research contributors for his excellence.

Naturally yours

Vijikumar. S
