Provenance
Achille Brocot (1817–1878) was a French clockmaker and amateur mathematician.He is known for his discovery (independently of and contemporaneously with German number theorist Moritz Stern) of the Stern–Brocot tree, a mathematical structure useful in approximating real numbers by rational numbers this sort of approximation is an important part of the design of gear ratios for antique clocks. He also made many other horological innovations including refinement of his father Louis-Gabriel's Brocot escapement and the development of antique clocks with perpetual calendar mechanisms.
