Adrien-Marie Legendre - Wikipedia Well-known and important concepts such as the Legendre polynomials and Legendre transformation are named after him He is also known for his contributions to the method of least squares, and was the first to officially publish on it, though Carl Friedrich Gauss had discovered it before him [4][5]
Adrien-Marie Legendre | French Mathematician Astronomer - Britannica Adrien-Marie Legendre (born September 18, 1752, Paris, France—died January 10, 1833, Paris) was a French mathematician whose distinguished work on elliptic integrals provided basic analytic tools for mathematical physics
Legendre, Adrien-Marie (1752-1833) -- from Eric Weissteins World of . . . Legendre reduced elliptic integrals to three standard forms, but their straightforward inversion by Abel and Jacobi rendered his work unnecessary He invented the Legendre polynomials in 1784 while studying the attraction of spheroids His work was important for geodesy
