Who did Pierre de Fermat claim to have inspired his work in mathematics?
Dianergr
According to Pierre de Fermat, his greatest inspiration came from the Greek mathematician Diophantus of Alexandria. Diophantus is sometimes called the "father of algebra." He was the first to try to develop algebraic notation and his study of equations (which came to be known as Diophantine equations) is one of the bases of number theory.
Diophantus lived in the third century, before the Dark Ages. It took another 1300 years before others began to publish his writings, translate them and annotate them. His book Arithmetica -- which included the earliest known use of syncopated notation -- had a major influence on the development of mathematics in the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries.

When was mathimatics made?
Many aspects of mathematics are not man-made. For example, the ratio of the circumference of a circle and its diameter will be pi, wherever it is. The inverse square laws for electromagnetic attraction (or repulsion) are universal. So, mathematics exists without people so no person can claim to have made it.

Why did napoleon support art that was inspired by classical Roman art?
Napoleon supported the art inspired by Ancient Rome because it was revered as the perfection of art. The Romans had managed to create a level of art that was revered by everyone. Although it was, as you can call it, both ancient and not French, it was still a model to work with. As a matter of fact Ancient Rome also has an impact of art today. Although many claim they are basing their art on the Renaissance- that is not accurate. The Renaissance was 100% inspired by Ancient Rome. You will also notice that many architectural buildings are inspired by Rome- for example, the White House.
What is maths lit and pure maths?
We all seem to know what is mathematics, but when it comes to define it we seem to fail completely. A dictionary meaning of mathematics could be a science dealing with study of quantities and their relationships expressed in numbers and other special symbols. Some people describe mathematics more of a language in which every symbol and every combination has precise meaning which can be determined by application of logical rules. This language can be used to describe and analyze any thing in the universes. This tall claim about mathematics will not appear all that far fetched when you consider that all the wonderful things that are done by computers today is are done using computer programs that ultimately use just two symbols that are equivalent ti the numerals 1 and 0 of mathematics.
