  Mathematician - Wikipedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
Mathematicians are typically interested in finding and describing patterns which may have originally arisen from problems of calculation, but have now been abstracted to become problems of their own.
Mathematicians differ from philosophers in that the primary questions of mathematics are assumed (for the most part) to transcend the context of the human mind; the idea that "2+2=4 is a true statement" is assumed to exist without requiring a human mind to state the problem.
Mathematicians differ from physical scientists such as physicists or engineers in that they do not typically perform experiments to confirm or deny their conclusions; and whereas every scientific theory is always assumed to be an approximation of truth, mathematical statements are an attempt at capturing truth.

 Hipparchus
Hipparchus (Greek Ἳππαρχος) (circa 190 BC – circa 120 BC) was a Greek astronomer, geographer, and mathematician.
Hipparchus is recognised as the first mathematician who compiled a trigonometry table, which he needed when computing the eccentricity of the orbits of the Moon and Sun.
Lunisolar precession causes the motion of point γ by the ecliptic in the opposite direction of the apparent solar year's movement and the circulation of celestial pole.

He continued with his study in Berlin (1899/1900) under the German mathematicians Ferdinand Georg Frobenius and Lazarus Immanuel Fuchs and in Göttingen (1900/1901) under Felix Christian Klein and David Hilbert.
Mathematicians from Göttingen began to work on this new research field under Hilbert's guidance.
Plemelj was first teacher of mathematics at Slovene university and 1949 became first honorary member of ZDMFAJ, (Yugoslav Union of societies of mathematicians, physicists and astronomers).

However it was around this time that the Slovenes, Serbs, and Croats began to seek independence from Austria and various ideas of political union of these groups began to be discussed.
Plemelj certainly qualified as an Austrian mathematician but it was ironical that he would be described as such during a period when the various nations which formed the Austrian empire were beginning to look towards independence and Plemelj himself was strongly associated with such aims.
The Slovene Provincial Government set up a University Commission to oversee the reopening of the University of Ljubljana as a Slovene University and Plemelj was appointed a member of this Commission.

This list is by no means comprehensive, and several individuals and teams have been identified as world leaders in their own branches of research.
Instead, applied mathematicians are often seeded into larger groups of experimental physicists, chemists and biologists, but then are often the first to get dropped off when the funding actually provided turns out to be insufficient to support all of the proposed research (in fact, this situation also occurs in the UK and the USA).
Mathematicians around the country vary in their assessment of the seriousness of the problem for mathematics, but most or all are agreed that there is indeed a mathematics capability issue.

The increasing use of Esperanto outside Europe is reflected in the growth of continental congresses: 1996 witnessed the first Asian Congress (in Shanghai), the third American Congress (in San José, Costa Rica), and the fourth African Congress (in Moshi, Tanzania).
The 1993 list of the Pasporta Servo, a service run by UEA's youth section, contains the addresses of over 900 Esperanto speakers in 59 countries willing to provide free overnight accommodation in their own homes to young travellers.

The Iranian mathematician and astronomer, Ghyath ad-din Jamshid Kashani, 1350-1439, computed π to 9 digits in the base of 60, which is equivalent to 16 decimal digits as: :2 π = 6.2831853071795865 The German mathematician Ludolph van Ceulen (''circa'' 1600) computed the first 35 decimals.
The Slovene mathematician Jurij Vega in 1789 calculated the first 140 decimal places for π of which the first 137 were correct and held the world record for 52 years until 1841, when William Rutherford calculated 208 decimal places of which the first 152 were correct.
