2000: 931: 219:. He also developed a novel method for determining the conditions under which certain types of cubic equations would have two, one, or no solutions. To al-Tusi, "solution" meant "positive solution", since the possibility of zero or negative numbers being considered genuine solutions had yet to be recognised at the time. The equations in question can be written, using modern notation, in the form   802:, "apparently the idea of a function was proposed by the Persian mathematician Sharaf al-Din al-Tusi (died 1213/4), though his approach was not very explicit, perhaps because of this point that dealing with functions without symbols is very difficult. Anyhow algebra did not decisively move to the dynamic function substage until the German mathematician Gottfried Leibniz(1646–1716)." 986: 996: 945: 941: 886: 1246: 876: 198:
Al-Tusi has been credited with proposing the idea of a function, however his approach being not very explicit, algebra's decisive move to the dynamic function was made 5 centuries after him, by German polymath Gottfried Leibniz. Sharaf al-Din used what would later be known as the
402:, and setting it equal to zero. This conclusion has been challenged, however, by others, who point out that al-Tusi nowhere wrote down an expression for the derivative, and suggest other plausible methods by which he could have discovered his expressions for the maxima. 264:  is positive. The Muslim mathematicians of the time divided the potentially solvable cases of these equations into five different types, determined by the signs of the other coefficients of   641:
where  a  and  b  are positive numbers. For any other values of the coefficients of  x  and  x2, the equation  f(x) = c  has no positive solution.

Little is known about his life, except what is found in the biographies of other scientists and that most mathematicians today can trace their lineage back to him. 2008: 175:, where he met his most famous disciple Kamal al-Din ibn Yunus (1156-1242). Kamal al-Din would later become the teacher of another famous mathematician from Tus, 2054: 1423: 558:. This was criticized by Jeffrey Oaks who claims that Al-Tusi did not study curves by means of equations, but rather equations by means of curves (just as 2921: 391:. Some scholars have concluded that al-Tusi obtained his expressions for these maxima by "systematically" taking the derivative of the function   1715: 1406: 2906: 2901: 2285: 1129: 1453: 2926: 2916: 2140: 1415: 663: 1082: 2061: 562:
