 George Green (mathematician)

George Green (1793–1841) was an English mathematician and physicist known for his contributions to mathematics, particularly in the areas of potential theory and Fourier analysis. He is best known for the formulation of what is now called Green's Theorem, which relates to the integration of functions over a region and its boundary. Green's work was initially published in a paper titled "An Essay on the Application of Mathematical Analysis to the Theories of Electricity and Magnetism" in 1828.
