Quantitative subsurface defect evaluation by pulsed phase thermography: depth retrieval with the phase (2005, background): “Fourier’s work contained the ideas that would develop into what is now known as Fourier Analysis [67], [69].”
A Taxonomy Of (2002, unknown): “…Cardano, who first had the idea of computing with such numbers, seems to have seen this point clearly —he failed, however, to acknowledge the importance of this; in 1545 he wrote in his Ars Magna (cf. [87]): Dismissing mental tortures, and multiplying 15 5 − + by 15 5 − − , we obtain 25− (−15).”
The Distributional Denjoy Integral (2006, background): “And, ∫ 1 0 F ′ does not exist in the Riemann or Lebesgue sense since |F ′| is not integrable in a neighbourhood of 0.”
