在1878年,帕夫努季·切比雪夫向法国科学促进会提交了一篇关于服装裁剪的文章[Chebyshev1878]。据切比雪夫本人所述,他的兴趣源于1876年他参加的爱德华·卢卡斯的一场讲座[Lucas1876]。关于切比雪夫对服装裁剪兴趣的起源,还有另一个说法:在19世纪50年代,由于缺钱,切比雪夫在一家服装厂谋得顾问职位。在克里米亚战争(1853-1856)期间,军服需求巨大。据称切比雪夫被要求优化布料的使用,他对服装裁剪的兴趣由此而生。这个说法似乎源自克莱夫·J·格兰特于1996年在MacTutor上的一篇帖子[Grant1996]。然而,该帖子没有引用任何参考文献,而且我所找到的其他信息来源也没有提供任何第一手资料来支持这一说法。我们的结论是,这个说法纯属虚构,完全是凭空捏造的。
英文摘要
In {\tt 1878}, Pafnuty Chebyshev presented to the {\it Association fran\c caise pour l'avan\-cement des sciences} {\it [French Association for the Advancement of the Sciences]} an article \cite{Chebyshev1878} dealing with garment cutting. According to Chebyshev himself, his interest was sparked by a lecture given by Édouard Lucas that he had attended in {\tt 1876} \cite{Lucas1876}. There is a second story on the origin of Chebyshev's interest in garment cutting according to which in the 1850s, being short of money, Chebyshev got himself a job as a consultant to a clothing factory. At the time of the Crimean War (1853-1856), there was a great demand for uniforms. Chebyshev was allegedly asked to optimize the use of fabric, and it was there that his interest in garment cutting was born. This second story appears to have its origin in a post by Clive J. Grant to MacTutor in 1996 \cite{Grant1996}. However, this contribution contains no references, and no other source of information that I have found offers any first-hand documentation to support this story. Our conclusion is that this second story is a fabrication, invented out of whole cloth.
