Omar Khayyam 's full name was Ghiyath al-Din Abu'l-Fath Umar ibn Ibrahim Al-Nisaburi al-Khayyami. A literal translation of the name al-Khayyami (or al-Khayyam) means 'tent maker' and this may have been the trade of Ibrahim his father. Khayyam played on the meaning of his own name when he wrote:- Khayyam, who stitched the tents of science,
Has fallen in grief's furnace and been suddenly burned,
The shears of Fate have cut the tent ropes of his life,
And the broker of Hope has sold him for nothing!
Khayyam studied philosophy at Naishapur and one of his fellow students wrote that he was:- ... endowed with sharpness of wit and the highest natural powers ... However, this was not an empire in which those of learning, even those as learned as Khayyam, found life easy unless they had the support of a ruler at one of the many courts. Even such patronage would not provide too much stability since local politics and the fortunes of the local military regime decided who at any one time held power. Khayyam himself described the difficulties for men of learning during this period in the introduction to his Treatise on Demonstration of Problems of Algebra (see for example [1]):- I was unable to devote myself to the learning of this algebra and the continued concentration upon it, because of obstacles in the vagaries of time which hindered me; for we have been deprived of all the people of knowledge save for a group, small in number, with many troubles, whose concern in life is to snatch the opportunity, when time is asleep, to devote themselves meanwhile to the investigation and perfection of a science; for the majority of people who imitate philosophers confuse the true with the false, and they do nothing but deceive and pretend knowledge, and they do not use what they know of the sciences except for base and material purposes; and if they see a certain person seeking for the right and preferring the truth, doing his best to refute the false and untrue and leaving aside hypocrisy and deceit, they make a fool of him and mock him.

OMAR KHAYYAM Poet / Astronomer Historically speaking, Omar Khayyam has led a double life. In his own time he was a respected mathematician and astronomer who helped reform the ancient Muslim calendar. In the modern era he is more fondly remembered as the author of the brief, lyrical poems known collectively as The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.

Awake! for Morning in the Bowl of Night
Has flung the Stone that puts the Stars to Flight:
And Lo! the Hunter of the East has caught
The Sultan's Turret in a Noose of Light.
Dreaming when Dawn's Left Hand was in the Sky
I heard a Voice within the Tavern cry,
"Awake, my Little ones, and fill the Cup
"Before Life's Liquor in its Cup be dry."
And, as the Cock crew, those who stood before The Tavern shouted"Open then the Door! "You know how little while we have to stay, "And, once departed, may return no more." Now the New Year reviving old Desires, The thoughtful Soul to Solitude retires, Where the WHITE HAND OF MOSES on the Bough Puts out, and Jesus from the Ground suspires. Iram indeed is gone with all its Rose, And Jamshyd's Sev'n-ring'd Cup where no one knows; But still the Vine her ancient Ruby yields

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
This edition of one of the best-known poems ever as translated by Edward Fitzgerald features an introduction by novelist A.S. Byatt and color illustrations by Edmund Dulac. Never mind whether these are really the verses of the 12th-century poet (there is little doubt that Fitzgerald interpreted the original Sufi text through a western lens); the popularity of this book tells much about Victorian fascination with all things "oriental."

Omar Khayyam and a Geometric Solution of the Cubic by June Jones About 900 years ago, Omar Khayyam, the Persian poet and mathematician, found a geometric solution of a cubic. He solved a cubic in the form x3 +a2x = b by using a pair of intersecting conic sections. The figures in this essay were created on Algebra Xpresser but the TI-81 or 82 would be appropriate also. With one of these or the grapher or software of choice, the reader may recreate this ancient procedure. As you perform the following steps, vary the values of a and b. 1.) Construct a parabola of the form x2 = ay. 2.) Draw a semicircle with diameter AC = b/a2 on the x-axis. Let P be the point of intersection with the parabola. 3.) Drop a perpendicular from P to the x-axis to produce a point Q. Your basic figure should look like the one pictured below. It has been labeled so that an example can be looked at before we tackle the general case. It is set up with a = 1 and b = 2. Thus AQ = 1, AC = 2, and QP = 1. Our cubic for this example becomes x3 + x = 2. x2 = ay P A Q C We already know that the real number solution to x3 + x = 2 is 1. On the figure we see two places that this value occurs. Let's try another example and see if one of these locations might be the solution we are seeking. The reader can tentatively verify the values by using the software tracer.

OMAR AL-KHAYYAM
(1044-1123 A.D.)
Algebra would seem to rank first among the fields to which he contributed. He made an attempt to classify most algebraic equa- tions, including the third degree equations and, in fact, offered solutions for a number of them. 'This includes geometric' solutions of cubic equations and partial geometric solutions of most other equations. His book Maqalat fi al-Jabr wa al-Muqabila is a master- piece on algebra and has great importance in the development of algebra. His remarkable classification of equations is based on the complexity of the equations, as the higher the degree of an equation, the more terms, or combinations of terms, it will contain. Thus, Khayyam recognizes 13 different forms of cubic equatlon. His method of solving equations is largely geometrical and depends upon an ingenious selection of proper conics. He also developed the binomial expansion when the exponent is a positive integer. In fact, he has been considered to be the first to find the binomial theorem and determine binomial coefficients. In geometry, he studied generalities of Euclid and contributed to the theory of parallel lines. The Saljuq Sultan, Malikshah Jalal al-Din, called him to the new observatory at Ray around 1074 and assigned him the task of determining a correct solar calendar. This had become necessary in view of the revenue collections and other administrative matters that were to be performed at different times of the year. Khayyam introduced a calendar that was remarkably accurate, and was named as

Omar Khayyam was a Persian poet, mathmatician, and astronomer. His full name was Abu-al- Fath Omar ben lurahim al-Khayyam. Omar wrote the original Rubaiyat. He was famous as a mathmatition and astronomer. His work on algebra was well known throughout Europe in the Middle Ages. He also contributed to a calander reform. His fame as a poet has eclipsed his scientific achievments, even though versions of the forms and verses used in the Rubaiyat existed in Persian literature before Khayyam.

The Rubaiyat in English
Edward FitzGerald's 19th century translation of the Rubaiyat is the only English translation currently in the public domain (and the only one you can easily find on the Web). Unfortunately, this is probably one of the least accurate translations ever made. Some of FitzGerald's translations are only vaguely related to the originals, some are simply made up. FitzGerald himself referred to his work as "transmogrification". It does give you the feeling of Khayyam, though, and is makes a very pleasant reading, so it might be a good place to start. If you are interested in more accurate renderings, see the translation by Robert Graves and Omar Ali-Shah (London : Cassell, 1968) or by by Peter Avery and John Heath-Stubbs (London : A. Lane, 1979).

(Nishapur c. 1050- Nishapur 1122) Persian mathematician and poet.
Omar Khayyam ('Omar the tentmaker') was educated as a mathematician and astronomer, and worked at the royal court as astronomer. His works on algebra and geometry gave him an elevated position in his own time.
In 1077 he issued an important work that solved problems with the mathematics of Euclid, problems mathematicians in Europe managed to solve only 5-600 years later. From 1074 to 1079 Khayyam worked on a reform of the calendar system. The new system was used until 1925 in Persia (now Iran
It is for his poetry that he now is best remembered, collected in Rabayat , even if it now is believed that a large part of the 1,000 four-line stanzas cannot be attributed to him. Omar Khayyam's fame in the West came with the paraphrase by the British Edward Fitzgerald in 1859. The true Rabayat , the Iranian one, has poems covering four subjects:
  • Mankind
  • Pleasure of life
  • Life and destiny
