"On a tenté aussi de trouver, dans l'existence de pareils mouvements tourbillonnaires, l'explication mécanique de l'univers. Au lieu de se représenter l'espace occupé par des atomes que séparent des distances immenses vis - à-vis de leurs propres dimensions, sir William Thomson admet que la matière est continue, mais que certaines portions sont animées de mouvements tour billonnaires, qui, d'après le théorème de Helmholtz, doivent conserver leur individualité".

First printing of Poincaé's work on Fredholm's equation.""... heuristic variational arguments convinced Poincaré that there should be a sequence of ""eigenvalues"" and corresponding ""eigenfunctions"" for this problem, but for the same reasons lit was not able to prove their existence. A few years later, Fredholm's theory of integral equations enabled him to solve all these problems"" it is likely that Poincareé's papers had a decisive influence on the development of Fredholm's method, in particular the idea of introducing a variable complex parameter in the integral equation. It should also be mentioned that Fredholm's determinants were directly inspired by the theory of ""infinite determinants"" of H. von Koch, which itself was a development of much earlier results of Poincaré in connection with the solution of linear differential equations.""

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)

Stamps to title page, otherwise a fine and clean copy. pp. 83-97"" Pp. 331-341.[Entire volume: (6), 376 pp + 4 plates].
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.

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.
Rapport sur le Prix Bolyai. - [POINCARÉ APPRAISAL OF HILBERT]
Berlin, G. Reimer, 1912. 4to. Bound in contemporary half cloth with gilt lettering to spine. In ""Acta Mathematica"", Vol, 35, 1912. Entire volume offered. Stamps to title page, otherwise a fine and clean copy. Pp. 1-28. [Entire volume: (4), 398, (1), 27, 19 pp].
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.
