The Gaṇitasārasaṃgraha is a very significant Sanskrit treatise on mathematics, maybe the first one to have survived in a complete form.
It was composed by Mahāvīrācārya, a Jaina Digambara ācārya living in the 9th century during the reign of Amoghavarṣa, a Rāṣṭrakūṭa king ruling in Maharashtra and Karnataka.
The discovery, edition and translation into English of this text were done by M. Rangacharya who had chanced upon a few of its manuscripts in the Government Oriental Manuscripts Library (GOML) at Madras. His publication (1912) has been a landmark in the historiography of Indian mathematics as it has introduced to the international community of scholars this voluminous text containing more than a thousand verses.
