Who are the three greatest mathematicians recognized by the world?
The three famous mathematicians recognized in the world are Archimedes, Newton and Gauss.

1, Archimedes: Archimedes made great contributions to the development of mathematics and physics, and exerted an indelible influence on social progress and human development. Even Newton and Einstein drew wisdom and inspiration from him. He is "the ideal embodiment of theoretical genius and experimental genius", and Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo in the Renaissance followed his example.

2. Newton: In 2005, the Royal Society conducted a poll called "Who is the most influential person in the history of science", and Newton was considered to be more influential than Albert Einstein. The genetic analysis of Newton's hair shows that Newton is a carrier of Asperger's syndrome and has the expression of XQ28 gene, which increases Newton's mystery, but does not affect his image as a giant.

3. Gauss: Gauss not only made far-reaching contributions to pure mathematics, but also made important contributions to the practical application of astronomy, geodesy and electromagnetism in the 20th century. Gauss opened up many new fields of mathematics, from the most abstract algebraic number theory to intrinsic geometry, leaving his footprints. Judging from the research style, methods and even concrete achievements, he is the backbone of 18─ 19 century.

Extended data:

In mechanics, Newton expounded the conservation principle of momentum and angular momentum and put forward Newton's law of motion.

In optics, he invented reflecting telescope, and based on the observation that a prism diverges white light into the visible spectrum, he developed the color theory. He also systematically expressed the law of cooling and studied the speed of sound.

In mathematics, Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz shared the honor of developing calculus. He also proved the generalized binomial theorem and put forward Newton's method to approximate the zero point of function, which contributed to the study of power series. In economics, Newton put forward the gold standard.
