Abstract

The term “Algebraic Analysis” was initially used by Lagrange L[1] in 1797 in the title of his book Théorie des Fonctions Analytiques contenant Les Principes du Calcul Différentiel, dégagés de toute considération d’infiniment petits, d’évanouissans de limites et de fluxions, et réduit à l’analyse algébriques de quantités finies in order to point out that most of results have been obtained by algebraic operations on analytic quantities. In that general and common sense this name, adopted also by Cauchy, was used in 19th and in 20th century (cf. Fraser F[1], Jahnke J[1], also the author PR[26], PR[28).
