Giovanni Ceva (born 7 December 1647 in Milan, died 15 June 1734 in Mantua) is an Italian mathematician.
He studied at the Jesuit College in Milan and then at the University of Pisa. He also lectured there until 1686, when he became professor of mathematics at the University of Mantua.
Ceva also discovered and published the forgotten Menelaus theorem. His other works include mechanics, statics, hydraulics and economics. Published in 1711, De Re Nummeraria was one of the first books devoted to mathematical economics. Ceva analyzed the conditions of the balance of the monetary system of a small state. His brother, Jesuit Tommaso Ceva, was also a mathematician. Authoritative control (person):
