Saint of Mathematics Kabita Roy
Since 1992 Japan has been issuing stamps on the theme 'Post-age Stamp for People of Culture'.These stamps commemorate the great achievements of the pioneers of science and culture who have laid the foundation for Japan's development.
The first such stamps were leased in 1992 in honour of Takakazu
SEKI (1642-1708) on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of his birth. Takakazu SEKI, the saint of mathematics laid the foundation for mathematical progress in the Edo era. One of his most notable achievements was his study of circles and his "circle theory'. He developed the formula for finding out the volume of a sphere and the formula for the area of an ellipse
(a regular oval). These led to the modern science of differential calculus and integral calculus.
SEKI's outstanding achievements surround all mathematical and astronomical spheres of knowledge, including calendar studies.
