He wrote one of the major mathematical treatises of the Middle Ages,Explanations of the difficulties in the postulates in Euclid's Elements. In 1859, Edward Fitzgerald published a translation of his poems titled Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, though the authorship of the original material and the accuracy of the translations are dubious.
