Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Exposition de la M�thode de Riemann pour la D�termination des Surfaces Minima de Contour Donn�
Riemann se sert de variables imaginaires que l'on ram�ne imm�dia tement aux variables employ�es avant lui par M. O. Bonnet, dans plu sieurs M�moires importants sur la th�orie g�n�rale des surfaces. En effet, le logarithme n�p�rien de la variable p., choisie par Riemann, est �gal � y V:, et le logarithme de la variable conjugu�e p.' est �gal, par suite, a y - e a: et y �tant les variables ind�pendantes adop t�es par M. O. Bonnet. Le pense ne rien exag�rer en affirmant que les recherches savantes de M. O. Bonnet ont inspir� celles de Riemann.
