| Titolo: | Arithmetike stoicheiosis : on Diophantus and Hero of Alexandria / Wilbur R. Knorr. |
| Abstract: | 'Two ancient mathematical works, cited in ancient sources as the Preliminaries to the "Arithmetic Elements"' and the Preliminaries to the "Geometric Elements"'--of which the former is no longer extant, while the latter is an alternative designation of the "Definitions", now commonly attributed to Hero of Alexandria--are here argued to be companion works by the same author, namely Diophantus of Alexandria. This attribution has implications for the dating of Diophantus.' From the abstract. |
