He is great mathematicians from India. Srinivasa Aiyangar Ramanujan (December 22, 1887 – April 26, 1920) was an Indian mathematician who is widely considered among the most talented mathematicians in the heuristic aspects of number theory and insight into modular functions because of his originality and insight. He also made significant contributions to the development of partition functions and summation formulas involving constants such as p. A child prodigy, he was largely self-taught in mathematics and had compiled over 3,000 theorems between 1914 and 1918 at the University of Cambridge. However, Ramanujan was truly a self-taught person and never sought any degree from Cambridge. Many of his formulas were merely stated without proof, and were only later proven to be true. His results were highly original and unconventional, and have inspired a large amount of research and many mathematical papers; however, some of his discoveries have been slow to enter the mathematical mainstream. Recently his formulae have started to be applied in the field of crystallography, and other applications in physics. The Ramanujan Journal was launched to publish work "in areas of mathematics influenced by Ramanujan.
