Abū Kāmil’s “On the Pentagon and Decagon”
by Mohammad Yadegari and Martin Levey [1]

Abū Kāmil Shujāc ibn Aslam ibn Muhammad ibn Shujāc (ca. 850-930 A.D.) was known as al-Hasib al-Misrī, “the reckoner from Egypt.” He is, after al-Khwārizmī (ca. 825), the earliest algebraist of the Islamic Middle Ages whose writings are extant [2]. His work is important in the history of mathematics for a number of reasons. He was among the early Muslim algebraists whose work in algebra was extensively used by Europeans. It has been established that Leonardo Fibonacci (of Pisa) had access to the treatises of abū Kāmil. Leonardo was aware of “On the Pentagon and Decagon” of abū Kāmil and used it in his Practica Geometriae. There is proof that Leonardo used dozens of abū Kāmil’s problems in his algebra [3]. From “On the Pentagon and Decagon”, Leonardo used seventeen of its twenty problems carrying over the exact nvimber facts . [4] In previous works, Levey has shown that abū Kāmil was much interested in developing a mathematical methodology which combined the more abstract Greek methods with more pragmatic procedures of the Babylonian and Egyptian algebraists. Evidence for this has been established from his Algebra and his Indeterminate Equations [5]. Further proof is in “On the Pentagon and Decagon” to be discussed.

Kazuo Shimodaira**
[p.1]
The History of Mathematics Society of Japan started, as the present writer reported previously in our joural***, for the purpose of researches in the history of mathematics in general, not confined in particular fields of mathematics.However, the members of Society are inclined to restrict their field to Japanese mathematics and concentrate their studies in the history of the traditional ones — WASAN****. In fact, most of the members, with the exception of a few, have been keenly interested in WASAN.
The following are the table of contents which appeared in the recent issues of Sugakushi Kenkyu*****(or Journal of History of Mathematics, Japan).
