E590 -- Theoremata quaedam analytica, quorum demonstratio adhuc desideratur
(Certain theorems in analysis, of which a demonstration is thus far desired)
Summary:
According to Eneström, "The three theorems are:
- Omnes plane quantitates imaginariae, quaecunque in calculo analytico occurrere possunt,
ad hanc formam simplicissimam a + bi ita revocari possunt, ut litterae a et b quantitates reales denotent.
- Praeter circulum nulla datur curva algebraica, cujus singuli arcus per arcus circulares simpliciter exprimi queant.
- Nulla prorsus datur curva algebraica, cujus singuli arcus simpliciter per logarithmos exprimi queant."
According to the records, it was presented to
the St. Petersburg Academy on May 1, 1775.
