Jules Henri Poincaré

Jules Henri Poincaré (French: Jules Henri Poincaré, April 29, 1854 - July 17, 1912), a French mathematician, theoretical physicist, philosopher of science and engineer, is known as the "Gauss of modern mathematics" and "the last all-rounder in mathematics". He made many creative and fundamental contributions to mathematics, mathematical physics and celestial mechanics. The Poincaré conjecture he proposed is one of the most famous problems in mathematics. Over time, this conjecture became one of the famous Millennium Problems in mathematics until it was solved by Perelman from 2002 to 2003. In his research on the three-body problem, Poincaré became the first person to discover a deterministic system of chaos and laid the foundation for modern chaos theory. Poincaré preceded Einstein's work and drafted a simplified version of the special theory of relativity. The Poincaré group is named after him, and he is also recognized as one of the founders of algebraic topology.
