Abstract

The discovery of imaginary numbers and the establishment of complex systems took a long time. These nonexistent numbers have been studied in great detail by mathematicians thousands of years ago, including in Tartaglia's arithmetic competition. The general solution of Girolamo's cubic equation with one variable. All reflect the wisdom of the ancients. In modern times, as more and more mathematicians use more sophisticated methods to explore imaginary numbers, which are rarely studied, theories and systems are becoming more and more robust. Some famous mathematicians such as Euler, Gauss, Newton, Leibniz, and Descartes have made indelible contributions. These research areas also laid the foundation for the future development of science and technology physics. This review was focused on the mathematicians’ outstanding discovery of complex system.
