      J. J. Sylvester (1814-1897) is mostly remembered for his work on matrices and determinants and their use in the theory of invariants. He also made distinguished contributions to the theory of numbers and to the resolution of equations and also to several aspects of combinatorics.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEHere a survey of the papers written by Sylvester on mechanics and mathematical physics is given.
