- Samuel Roberts (1827-1913) va ser un matemàtic aficionat anglès que va arribar a ser president de la London Mathematical Society. Va estudiar a la Universitat de Londres, on es va graduar el 1847 i va obtenir el master el 1849. Després va estudiar lleis i va ser advocat a Lincoln (Anglaterra) a partir de 1853. Esdevingué membre de la London Mathematical Society des del primer any de la seva fundació, el 1865, i hi participava activament tot i no ocupar cap càrrec docent o acadèmic. Va ser un dels més prolífics autors de la revista de la Societat. De 1881 a 1882 va ser president de la Societat que, durant el seu mandat, va instituir la , com un premi triennal al millor tractat matemàtic publicat. Ell mateix la va rebre el 1896. Els seus treballs versen, sobretot, de geometria i teoria de nombres, entre els quals cal destacar el seu discurs de 1882 en abandonar la presidència, Remarks on Mathematical Terminology, and the Philosophic Bearing of Recent Mathematical Speculations Concerning the Realities of Space, on exposava i criticava el discurs d'habilitació de Riemann i especulava sobre l'existència d'espais matemàtics no intuïtius. Una de les seves aportacions en el camp de la geometria és el que es coneix com a teorema de Roberts-Txebixov sobre els vincles afins. (ca)

- Samuel Roberts FRS (15 December 1827, in Horncastle, Lincolnshire – 18 September 1913, in London) was a British mathematician. Roberts studied at Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School, Horncastle. He matriculated in 1845 at the University of London, where he earned in 1847 his bachelor's degree in mathematics and in 1849 his master's degree in mathematics and physics, as first in his class. Next he studied law and became a solicitor in 1853. After a few years of law practice he abandoned his law career and returned to mathematics, although he never had an academic position. He had his first mathematical paper published in 1848. In 1865 he was an important participant in the founding of the London Mathematical Society (LMS). From 1866 to 1892 he acted as legal counsel for LMS, from 1872 to 1880 he was the organization's treasurer, and from 1880 to 1882 its president. In 1896 he received the De Morgan Medal of the LMS. In 1878 he was elected FRS. Roberts published papers in several fields of mathematics, including geometry, interpolation theory, and Diophantine equations. Roberts and Pafnuty Chebyschev are jointly credited with the Roberts-Chebyshev theorem related to four-bar linkages. Roberts's triangle theorem, on the minimum number of triangles that lines can form, is also named after Roberts, who published the theorem (with an unconvincing proof) in 1889. (en)
