Has /sci/ ever made a ranking of mathematicians in terms of their powerlevel?

basic arithmetic bc all other math is based on it then math that is based on more math at the lowest easy answer

1. Euler
Even Gauss would agree

Witten makes top 10

I don't know about the order, but Euclid, Euler, Archimedes, Newton, Gauss, Hilbert, Riemann, are some top ones.

Just noticed, back to back, What are the odds both post numbers of 8 digits, would both contain all 1 through 8. Nice.

2nd tier-ish or others might be Pythagoras, Leibnitz, Diophantus, Cauchy, Goedel, Pascal, Bernoulli, Fibonacci, Poincare, Fourier, Lagrange.

actually the most mathematically gifted people are generally priests (who btw are the most athiestic and nihilistic peices of shit in the world), but for work reasons they have to keep their abilities hidden so they only discuss their research with other priests who collectively posess mathematical knowledge unthinkable to university cucks

Probably people nobody here knows because they are too autistic for general purpose mathematics. People like Teichmüller or some random indian school teacher idk.

It's cringe that no one mentioned Erdos yet.

unbelievably based. Erdos was absolutely an Euler-tier mathematician.
