Nicolas Bourbaki is a collective pseudonym used by a group of mostly French mathematicians who wrote influential treatises on modern advanced mathematics starting in the 1930s.
Notes on verification
Confirmed by multiple independent, high-quality sources including Britannica, CNRS News, and academic encyclopedias, all corroborating the founding period, collective pseudonym nature, and scope of the group's work.
