Galileo Galilei.

• 

  Physicist and crime-fighter Galileo Galilei, imprisoned on trumped-up charges, uses nail to scratch the equation E pur si muove on dungeon wall; in the process, he discovers a deliberately concealed Gnomon algorithm function which proves his innocence. Although Galileo's accusation that the function was stolen and concealed by the Forbidden Ratio is widely believed to be true, no proof has emerged that the Ratio or its degenerate cases were involved.

  Galileo Galilei (nonfiction) says that he has "no idea what this means, what you call 'crimes against mathematics'. It appears that only crime here is the crime against reason which is your unclear thinking."
