All Works by Eneström Number

The Eneström Index. In 1913, Swedish mathematician Gustaf Eneström completed a comprehensive survey of Euler's works. He enumerated 866 distinct works, including books, journal articles, and some letters he deemed to be especially important. Each of these was assigned a number, from E1 to E866, which is now referred to as the "Eneström number." Most historical scholars today use Eneström numbers to identify Euler's writings quickly.

Euler Translation. Since roughly 80% of Euler's works were published in Latin, translation into modern languages is crucial in order to understand his contributions to science and mathematics. If you are contemplating a particular translation project, please contact Erik Tou (etou@uw.edu) or Chris Goff (cgoff@pacific.edu), using "Euler Translation Notice" as your subject heading. If you have completed a translation project, please consider submitting it to the journal Euleriana.
