"VOLTERRA, VITO.
Sur la Théorie des Variations des Latitudes.
Berlin, Stockholm, Paris, Beijer, 1899. 4to. Without wrappers as extracted from ""Acta Mathematica. Hrdg. von G. Mittag-Leffler."", Bd. 22, pp. 201-357.
Reference : 39177
First edition. As the north and south poles, instead of being fixed points on the earth's surface, wander round within a circle of ab. 5o ft. in diameter, the result is a variability of terrestial latitudes generally. Volterra gives an elaborate mathematical analysis of these yearly fluxtuations.

First printing of these important papers: POINCARÉ: First edition. ""As soon as he came into contact with the work of Riemann and Weierstrass on Abelian Functions and algebraic geometry, Poincaré was very much attracted by those fields. His papers on these subjects occupy in his complete works as much space as those on automorphic functions, their dates ranging from 1881 to 1911. One of his main ideas in these papers is that of ""reduction"" of Abelian functions. Generalizing particular cases studied b Jacobi, Weierstrass, and Picard, Poincaré proved the general ""complete reducibility"" theorem...""(DSB).VOLTERRA: First edition.
