Tullio Levi-Civita was an Italian mathematician born on March 29, 1873, in Padua, Italy. He is best known for his contributions to the field of mathematics, particularly in tensor calculus and general relativity. Levi-Civita developed the Levi-Civita symbol, which is essential in various mathematical applications, including physics. In addition to his work in mathematics, Levi-Civita was a prominent figure in the Italian mathematical community and collaborated with other notable mathematicians, such as Gregorio Ricci-Curbastro. He played a significant role in advancing the understanding of differential geometry and its applications in theoretical physics. Levi-Civita passed away on December 29, 1966.
