Alexandre-Théophile Vandermonde (1735–1796) was a French mathematician known for his contributions to various fields, including algebra, combinatorics, and matrix theory. He is perhaps best known for the Vandermonde determinant and Vandermonde polynomial. The Vandermonde matrix is a type of matrix with the terms of a geometric progression in each row.
