‎Notice sur la distribution et marche des pluies dans la département de la Meuse, le bassin supérieur de la rivière Meuse et une zone avoisinante du bassin de la Seine‎

‎Paris, Dunod, 1873, in-8, 43, (1) pages et (2) cartes depl, broché, couverture imprimée de l'éditeur, Rare tiré à part non coupé. A travers cette brochure, Poincaré traite des trois modes de représentation (isoombres, suivies et horaires) des phénomènes météorologiques, modes employés avec beaucoup de réticence à l'époque. Il explique notamment les légendes des deux cartes qu'il a réalisées pour représenter les pluies tombées sur la Meuse et le bassin de la Seine durant l'hiver 1868-1869. En 1871, Poincaré présente à la Commission de l'Association Scientifique de France une étude en 7 parties intitulée "études sur la distribution et la marche des pluies dans la région". Un résumé sera publié peu après dans le n° 211 de la revue hebdomadaire de l'institution. Antoine Poincaré, polytechnicien et ingénieur en chef à Bar-le-Duc fut l'oncle du mathématicien et physicien Henri Poincaré et le père de Raymond Poincaré, président de la France de 1913 à 1920. Malgré la présence minime de rousseurs et de taches sur les couvertures, bel exemplaire. Couverture rigide‎

‎First appearance of Poincaré's important paper in which he presented the first solution to the problem of the uniformization of curves - now know as The Uniformization Theorem. Clebsch and Riemann tried to solve the problem of the uniformization for curves. ""In 1882 Klein gave a general uniformization theorem, but the proof was not complete. In 1883 Poincaré announced his general uniformization theorem but he too had no complete proof. Both Klein and Poincaré continued to work hard to prove this theorem but no decisive result was obtained for twent-five years. In 1907 Poincare (in the offered paper) and Paul Koebe independently gave a proof of this uniformization theorem...With the theorem on uniformization now rigorously established an improved treatment of algebraic functions and their integrals has become possible."" (Morris Kline).‎

‎Sur l'équilibre d'une masse fluide animée d'un mouvement de rotation. - [POINCARÉ'S PEAR-SHAPE]‎

‎(Stockholm, Beijer), 1885. 4to. As extracted from ""Acta Mathematica, 21. Band]. No backstrip. Fine and clean. Pp. 259-380.‎

‎First printing of Poincaré's famous paper in which he proved that a rotating fluid such as a star changed its shape from a sphere to an ellipsoid to a pear-shape before breaking into two unequal portions. ""This work, which contained the discovery of new, pear-shaped figures of equilibrium, aroused considerable attention because of its important implications for cosmogony in relation to the evolution of binary stars and other celestial bodies."" (The Princeton Companion to Mathematics, P. 786)Another famous paper of Poincaré in celestial mechanics is the one he wrote in 1885 on the shape of a rotating fluid mass submitted only to the forces of gravitation. Maclaurin had found as possible shapes some ellipsoids of revolution to which Jacobi had added other types of ellipsoids with unequal axes, and P. G. Tait and W. Thomson some annular shapes. By a penetrating analysis of the problem, Poincaré showed that still other ""pyriform"" shapes existed. One of the features of his interesting argument is that, apparently for the first time, he was confronted with the problem of minimizing a quadratic form in ""infinitely"" many variables."" (DSB)‎

‎First printing of this paper in which Poincaré arrives at a new theorem about canonical transformation, and in his later ""Methodes Nouvelles"", he proved this theorem using a variiational principle of mechanics, known today as the Hamilton principle.Also included is the first printing of Poincaré's principal address at the first International Congress of Mathematicians held in Zürich in 1897. ‎

‎Sur un theoreme de M. Fuchs.‎

‎Stockholm, Beijer, 1885. 4to. As extracted from ""Acta Mathematica, 21. Band]. No backstrip. Fine and clean. Pp. 83-97.‎

‎First printing of Poincaré's paper in which he developed the idea published by Fuchs in 1884. Fuchs established that the equation with fixed branch points can be made into a Riccati equation if its genus - the genus of the corresponding Riemann surface - with respect to u and du/dz is zero and can be integrated using elliptic functions if the genus is 1. ‎

‎First appearance of Poincaré's report on 1910 Bolyai Prize which was awarded to David Hilbert in recognition of his work in fields of invariant theory, transcendent number (e constant after Lindemann), arithmetic, the (Hilbert-)Waring theorem, geometry, integral equations and the Dirichlet’s principle.In 1910, Hilbert became only the second winner of the Bolyai Prize of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. It was the recognition of the fact that Hilbert was one of the leading mathematicians of his time. The first winner of the prize in 1905 was Henri Poincare, the most prolific mathematician of the 19th century.Poincaré about the works and achievements of David Hilbert in fields of invariant theory, transcendent number (e constant after Lindemann), arithmetic, the (Hilbert-)Waring theorem, geometry, integral equations and the Dirichlet’s principle.‎
