  • 1899: Mathematician and crime-fighter Charles Hermite publishes lemma to his proof that e, the base of natural logarithms, is a transcendental number. Although he will not live to see it, this lemma will prove to be useful in solving entirely new classes of crimes against mathematical constants, winning Hermite posthumous fame.
