Alicia Boole Stott
Alicia Boole Stott (1860-1940) was an Irish-born English mathematician who is best known for having a remarkable grasp of four-dimensional geometry. She received her early mathematical training from her self-taught mother and she similarly never received a university education. Instead, while raising two children and working as a secretary, Stott pursued geometry work on her own, including building physical models, and she coined the term “polytopes” to describe the six regular four dimensional hypersolids. Stott initiated correspondence with Professor Pieter Schoute once she learned of his work in the same area and their collaboration led Stott to publish six papers between 1900 and 1910.
