Abstract:
In this article I present some few results of my study on the mathematical content of the published part (f. llr-126r) of the Codex Vind. Phil. gr. 65 (Tractatus Mathematicus Vindobonensis Graecus of TractMathVindGr). The other part, namely f. 126v-140r has been published by H. Hunger and K. Vogel. This 15th century (1436) Byzantine MS includes the solution of problems of practical arithmetic, algebra and geometry, the roots of which can be traced back to antiquity and their comparison with modern mathematical solutions reveals -apart from some differences- many identities and similarities showing the unbroken continuity of mathematical tradition through the centuries. Moreover, my research has revealed so far some important results according to which we are in the position to give to the TractMathVindGr the title of the first encyclopaedia of Mathematics.
