This category contains results named for Pappus of Alexandria.
One of the last great Greek mathematicians of antiquity.
Very little is known about him, except that he flourished at around 320 CE through dint of the eclipse of the sun in Alexandria in that year which he discussed in his commentary on Claudius Ptolemy's Almagest.
Noted for his multi-volume Collection, and for Pappus's Hexagon Theorem.
