This creates the "arithmetization" of mathematics.
Secondly, there has been a veritable explosion in all branches of mathematics. -
Period: to
1841 Tait
Quaternion analysis was developed as a research tool in the physical sciences and many new theorems were established in quaternion analysis that can be translated to modern vector analysis -
Period: to
1853
After graduating from the Tate in 1852, he became a Fellow of Peterhouse College, Cambridge, where he began writing many of his books and was W.J. Style of the book Particle Dynamics. -

1856
Maxwell is the author of his four major works on electricity. The results published in these works, especially those related to the electromagnetic field concept, suggested mathematical problems that could be solved by quaternion analysis, although he did not use them as such. -
Period: to
1860
Maxwell first proposed his famous equation written in component notation, and in his 1873 Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism he wrote it in both component notation and quaternion notation. -
Period: to
1865
Between these dates, the transition that occurred between 1865 and 1880 is remarkable. Hamilton and those who worked with ordinary complex numbers were not the only mathematicians of their time who worked on vector systems. -
Period: to
1870
This is his famous article "On the mathematical classification of physical quantities", in which Maxwell explains in depth why the mathematical classification of physical quantities is important, with special attention to the classification of physical units into scalars and vectors. -
Period: to
1880. TAIT
He developed quaternion analysis as a tool for research in the physical sciences and created many new theorems in quaternion analysis that can be translated to modern vector analysis. -
Period: to
1894
Vector analysis is widely accepted, as evidenced by the fact that a significant number of major publications describe vector analysis systems as distributed. -
Period: to
1901
He is known as a great reader and writer of scientific books (he has written 22 books in whole or in part) and as a prolific scientific researcher. He has published 365 papers, of which about 70 are on quaternions.
