Notes

Portion of Kitāb al-Šifāʾ(Part 4 of the mathematical section); probably composed originally in Jurjān between 1012-14 and revised with the rest of the Šifāʾ in Isfahan. Published as part of the Cairo series, al-Šifāʾ, al-riyāḍiyyāt, part 4 (ʿilm al-hayʾa) [Cairo, 1980].

List of witnesses need to be checked since much confusion about the name.
