• Jules Henri Poincaré (April 29, 1854 – July 17, 1912), generally known as Henri Poincaré, was one of France's greatest mathematicians and theoretical physicists, and a philosopher of science. Poincaré (pronounced (IPA) BrE: [ˈpwæŋ kæ reɪ]; [1]) is often described as the last "universalist" (after Gauss) capable of understanding and contributing in virtually all parts of mathematics.

As a mathematician and physicist, he made many original fundamental contributions to theoretical and applied mathematics, mathematical physics, and celestial mechanics. He was responsible for formulating the Poincaré conjecture, one of the most famous problems in mathematics. In his research on the three-body problem, Poincaré became the first person to discover a chaotic deterministic system which laid the foundations of modern chaos theory. Poincaré introduced the modern Principle of Relativity and he was the first person to present the Lorentz transformations in their symmetrical form, which forms the basis of the Theory of Special Relativity as presented in textbooks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri_Poincare

Referring to the diagram of ALP on page 293:
"Poincaré was a popularizer of innovations and might also have influenced Einstein, whose General Theory of Relativity was eventually to prove Riemann more accurate than Euclid. Thus if Pi represents Euclid and Newton, A represents Poincar, and Einstein". (Roland McHugh, The Sigla of Finnegans wake)
