尼古拉·伯努利二世Nicolaus II Bernoulli

尼古拉·伯努利二世是约翰·伯努利三个儿子中最受宠爱的。他年仅13岁就进入了巴塞尔大学，并且像他家族的许多其他成员一样，同时学习数学和法律。1715年，他获得了法学执照。

尼古拉·伯努利二世 作为他父亲的助手工作，帮助他处理通信。特别是他参与了关于 艾萨克·牛顿 和 哥特弗里德·威廉·莱布尼茨 之间著名的优先权争议的信件撰写。他不仅回复了 布鲁克·泰勒 关于争议的问题，而且在研究争议背后的数学论证时，对轨迹问题做出了重要的数学贡献。

尼古拉·伯努利二世研究曲线、微分方程和probability。他在圣彼得堡任职仅8个月后就去世了，年纪轻轻，而他的才华本应对未来充满希望。Fleckstein在[1]中写道：-

他和他的兄弟丹尼尔·伯努利在法国和意大利旅行，两人都在那里获得了圣彼得堡科学院的职位。然而，不到一年，他就染上并死于消耗性热病。

Nicolaus (II) Bernoulli was the favourite of three sons of Johann Bernoulli. He entered the University of Basel when only 13 years of age and, like many other members of his family, studied both mathematics and law. In 1715 he became a licentiate in jurisprudence.

Nicolaus worked as his father's assistant helping him with correspondence. In particular he was involved with writing letters concerning the famous priority dispute between Newton and Leibniz. He not only replied to Taylor regarding the dispute but he also made important mathematical contributions to the problem of trajectories while working on the mathematical arguments behind the dispute.

Nicolaus worked on curves, differential equations and probability. He died only 8 months after taking up an appointment in St Petersburg at a young age when his talents promised so much for the future. Fleckstein writes in [1]:-

With his brother Daniel he travelled in France and Italy, where both received appointments to the St Petersburg Academy. Within a year, however, he contracted and died of a hectic fever.
