'''Yativṛṣabha'''(Yativrishabha), also known as '''Jadivasaha''', was a [[mathematician]] and [[Jainism|Jain]] monk. He is believed to have lived during the 6th century, probably during 500–570.He studied under Arya Manksu and Nagahastin He lived and worked between the periods of two great [[India]]n mathematicians, [[Aryabhata]] (476 – 550) and [[Brahmagupta]] (598-668)<br />
<br />
== Works ==<br />
He compiled many works in [[Prakrit]] expounding Jain traditions.One of these, the ''Tiloyapannatti'' a description of the universe and its parts, is of some importance to historians of Indian science because it incorporates formulas representative of developments in Jain mathematics between the older canonical works and the later texts of the ninth and following centuries.He wrote the book named ''Tiloyapannatti'' which describes [[cosmology]] from the point of view of Jain religion and philosophy. "The work also gives various units for measuring distances and time." [[Tiloya Panatti]] postulated different concepts about [[infinity]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Yativrsabha - Biography|url=https://mathshistory.st-andrews.ac.uk/Biographies/Yativrsabha/|access-date=2021-05-05|website=Maths History|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Yativr?s?abha {{!}} Encyclopedia.com|url=https://www.encyclopedia.com/science/dictionaries-thesauruses-pictures-and-press-releases/yativrsabha|access-date=2021-05-05|website=www.encyclopedia.com}}</ref>Hhis work also describes the construction of the Universe expressed in specific numbers; for example, the diameter of the circular Jambu continent, upon which India is located, is 100,000 yojanas and its circumference is 316,227 [[Yojana|yojanas]], 3 krośas, 128 daṇḍas, 13 aṅgulas, 5 yavas, 1 yūkā, 1 ṛikṣā, 6 karmabhūmivālagras, 7 madhyabhogabhūmivālagras, 5 uttamabhogabhūmivālagras, 1 rathareṇu, 3 trasareṇus, 2 sannāsannas, and 3 avasannāsannas, plus a remainder of 23213/105409.<ref>{{Citation|last=Ikeyama|first=Setsuro|title=Yativṛṣabha|date=2007|url=https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-30400-7_1513|work=The Biographical Encyclopedia of Astronomers|pages=1251–1251|editor-last=Hockey|editor-first=Thomas|place=New York, NY|publisher=Springer|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-0-387-30400-7_1513|isbn=978-0-387-30400-7|access-date=2021-05-05|editor2-last=Trimble|editor2-first=Virginia|editor3-last=Williams|editor3-first=Thomas R.|editor4-last=Bracher|editor4-first=Katherine}}</ref><br />
