Über einen Functionentheoretischen Satz des Herrn G. Mittag-Leffler. (And same author:) Zur Funktionenlehre.
Berlin, Akaemie der Wissenschaften, 1880. Uncut in orig. printed wrappers. In ""Monatsbericht der Königlich Preussischen Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Berlin."", August 1880, pp. 719-43. Weierstrass' papers: pp. 707-717 and 719-43.
Both papers first edition. In ""Zur Funktionenlehre"" Weierstrass continues his polemic with Riemann's ideas. Here it is on the topic of the very concept of an analytic function, where Weierstrass placed power series as the starting point, in opposition to Riemann's idea.

Sur les fonctions elliptiques p-adiques. Presentée par Élie Cartan.
(Paris, Gauthier-Villars), 1936. 4to. No wrappers. In: ""Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences"", Tome 203, No 1. Pp. (5-) 136 (entire issue offered). Weil's paper: pp. 22-24. Disbound and paper a bit fragile.
First printing of an importent paper on compact groups.""J. von Neumann an A. Weil, by different methods, obtained simultaneously the uniqueness in the case of of locally compact groups, A. Weil indicating at the same time how the procedure of Haar could be extended to general locally compact groups. It is also A. Weil (in the paper offered) who obtained the condition for the existence of a relatively invariant measure on a homogenous space, and showed finally that the existence of a ""measure"" (endowed with reasonable properties) on a separated topological group, implies ipse facto that the group is locally precompact.""(Bourbaki ""Elements of the istory of Mathematics"", p. 233).
Sur les fonctions algébriques à corps de constantes fini.
(Paris, Gauthier-Villars et Cie, 1940). 4to. Without wrappers. In: ""Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences"", Tome 210, No 17. Pp. (589-) 616. (Entire issue offered). Stamp on front page. Weil's paper: pp. 592-594.
First printing of Weil's importent paper in which he introduced the concept of Weil-pairing, giving a proof of the Riemann hypothesis for curves over finite fields.The Weil pairing is a pairing (bilinear form, though with multiplicative notation) on the points of order dividing n of an elliptic curve E, taking values in nth roots of unity. The Weil pairing is used in number theory and algebraic geometry, and has also been applied in elliptic curve cryptography and identity based encryption.""The Weil pairing, first introduced by André Weil in 1940, plays an important role in the theoretical study of the arithmetic of elliptic curves and Abelian varieties. It has also recently become extremely useful in cryptologic constructions related to those objects.""(Victor S. Miller).The Weil pairing is used in number theory and algebraic geometry, and has also been applied in elliptic curve cryptography and identity based encryption.
Sur les Espaces a Structure uniforme et sur la Topologie générale.
Paris, Hermann & Cie, Frontwrapper: 1937, Titlepage: 1938. Lex8vo. Uncut and unopened in orig. printed wrappers. Stamps on foot of titlepage. In the series ""Act. Sci. Industrielles 551, Paris, 1937"".
First edition of Weil's importent work on uniform topological spaces where he gives the first explicit definition of uniform structure""His most widely used innovation was in point set topology, namely the idea of uniform spaces. Such a space has no metric giving a distance between points, yet it makes sense to talk of different sequences ""converging at the same rate"" to different points. In particular there is a well-defined notion of uniform convergence of a series of functions from one uniform space to another."" (DSB).

Om Directionens analytiske Betegning, et forsøg, anvendt fornemmelig til plane og sphæriske Polygoners Opløsning. - [THE FIRST SYSTEMATICAL THREATMENT OF COMPLEX NUMBERS]
Kiøbenhavn, Johan Rudolph Thiele, (1797) 1799. 4to. Recently bound in a nice pastiche-binding of brown half calf with five raised bands and gilt red leather title-label to elaborately gilt spine. Vellum corners and marbled paper over boards. Published in: ""Nye Samling af det Kongelige Danske Videnskabernes Selskabs Skrifter."" Vol. V. A very nice copy. Pp.469-518 + 3 folded engraved plates.
First edition of this seminal publication in which Wessel presents the first systematical treatment of the theory of complex numbers and furthermore being the first work to add vectors in three-dimensional space.""Wessel’s fame as a mathematician is based entirely on one paper, written in Danish and published in the Mémoires of the Royal Danish Academy, that established his priority in publication of the geometric representation of complex numbers. John Wallis had given a geometric representation of the complex roots of quadratic equations in 1685"" Gauss had had the idea as early as 1799 but did not explicitly publish it until 1831. Robert Argand’s independent publication in 1806 must be credited as the source of this concept in modern mathematics because Wessel’s work remained essentially unknown until 1895, when its significance was pointed out by Christian Juel. The title of Wessel’s treatise calls it an ""attempt"" to give an analytic representation of both distance and direction that could be used to solve plane and spherical polygons. The connection of this goal with Wessel’s work as a surveyor and cartographer is obvious. The statement of the problem also suggests that Wessel should be credited with an early formulation of vector addition. In fact, Michael J. Crowe, in A History of Vector Analysis (University of Notre Dame Press, 1967), defines the first period in that history as that of a search for hypercomplex numbers to be used in space analysis and dates it from the time of Wessel, whom he calls the first to add vectors in three-dimensional space.""

Über die Konvergenz von Reihen, die nach Orthogonalfunktionen fortschreiten.
Leipzig, B.G. Teubner, 1909. 8vo. Original printed wrappers, no backstrip and a small nick to front wrapper. In ""Mathematische Annalen. Begründet durch Alfred Clebsch und Carl Neumann. 67 Band. 2. Heft."" Entire issue offered. Internally very fine and clean. [Weyl:] Pp. 225-45. [Entire issue: Pp. 145-280].
First printing of Weyl's paper on the convergence of series which continue as orthogonal functions. ""Very few of Weyl's 150 published books and papers-even those chiefly of an expository character-lack an original idea or afresh viewpoint. The influence of his works and of his teaching was considerable: he proved by his example that an ""abstract"" approach to mathematics is perfectly compatible with ""hard"" analysis and, in fact, can be one of the most powerful tools when properly applied.""
