Abstract

This article provides a detailed examination of Isaac Newton’s method of fluxions and its historical and scientific significance in the development of differential and integral calculus. The study analyzes the concepts of fluxion and fluents, the principles of working with infinitesimal quantities, methods for determining the instantaneous rate of change of a function, as well as Newton’s approach to series theory and the geometry of curves. Additionally, several complex problems are solved using Newton’s original method, demonstrating their connection to modern mathematical analysis.

Keywords

fluxion, fluent, differential calculus, infinitesimals, Isaac Newton, series, derivative, history of analysis.
