Charles-François-Antoine Leroy (1793-1875) was a French mathematician and former professor at the École Polytechnique and the École Normale Supérieure, awarded the Legion of Honor. His work, Analysis Applied to the Geometry of Three Dimensions, is an advanced treatise on analytical geometry in space. It covers complex topics such as quadratic surfaces, the general theory of curved surfaces, and doubly curved lines—essential concepts for engineering and physics at the time.

The L'Hospital manual was the first treatise devoted to differential calculus in the French language. It did much to disseminate Leibniz's discovery in France and Europe.
On p. 145 we find the rule that would bear the name of L'Hospital's Rule (or theorem), which states that the quotient of two functions behaves locally like the quotient of the associated derivatives.

Robert Daniel Carmichael (1879-1967) was an American mathematician, a professor at the University of Illinois. He is known for his work in number theory. This work, translated from English, is a study of indeterminate analysis, a branch of mathematics that deals with equations with multiple variables and their integer solutions. The book covers topics such as Diophantine equations and Fermat's Last Theorem.

The first edition appeared in 1795 under the title 'Feuilles d'analyse appliquée à la géométrie'. In this work, Monge "assembled, along with general considerations regarding the theory of surfaces and the geometric interpretation of partial differential equations, monographs on about twenty families of surfaces defined by their mode of generation." (DSB [IX p. 476]).
In 1802, working with Hachette, he prepared a brief exposition, of analytic geometry that was designed to replace, the few remarks on the subject contained in the Feuilles. Entitled 'Application de l’algèbre à l’analyse', it was published separately in 1805; in 1807 edition and also for the fourth 1809 edition, it became, the first part of the final version of 'Feuilles d’analyse', now entitled 'Application de l'Analyse à la Géométrie.'
It's an, important work, in which, "The authors show that every plane section of a second degree surface is a second degree curve, and that parallel planes cut out similar and similarly placed curves. These results parallel Archimedes' geometric theorems. The authors also show that the hyperboloid of one sheet and the hyperbolic paraboloid are ruled surfaces, that is, each can be generated in two different ways by the motion of a line or each surfiace is formed by two systems of lines. The result on the one-sheeted hyperboloid was known by 1669 to Christopher Wren, who said that this figure could be Senerated by revolving a line about another not in the same plane. With the work of Euler, Lagrange, and Monge, analytic geometry became an independent and full-fledged branch of mathematics." (Kline in. Mathematical ... p. 547).

Fifth edition augmented by Joseph Liouville, who added substantial notes, as well as a translation of Carl Friedrich Gauss's key memoir (Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas, 1827) on the general theory of curved surfaces.

Dupin is known for it's theorem and for the cyclides of Dupin.
Today, Dupin cylides are used in computer-aided design (CAD), because cyclide patches have rational representations and are suitable for blending canal surfaces (cylinder, cones, tori, and others).
It's in this work that Dupin use for the first time the word "Cyclid" and give the demonstration of their existance and their main properties.

Paul Lévy (1886-1971) French mathematician is among the founders of modern probability theory. We also owe him important considerations on the stable stochastic laws which bear his name as well as on martingales. In 1920, he was appointed professor of analysis at the École Polytechnique and on this occasion discovered the discipline that would leave his mark the most: the calculation of probabilities. It can be said that most of the essential concepts of probability theory derive from him.
