Dear List Members,

I would appreciate any suggestions about the following:

I am translating for my PhD thesis  part of the commentary on the Sanskrit mathematical text Gaṇitatilaka by Śrīpati.

The commentator Siṃhatilaka Sūri was a Jain from Gujarat (13^th  CE). According to Pingree, he also wrote a  vṛtti on the Bhuvanadīpaka by Padmaprabha Sūri. 

Does anyone know if there is a published edition of it ? (the vṛtti  I mean)

 It seems the commentator is also the author of the R̥ṣimaṇḍalastavayantrālekhanam : anuvāda tathā bhāvārtha sahita 

and of the Śrīsiṃhatilakasūriviracitaṃ Mantrarāja rahasyam.

In the published edition of the Gaṇitatilaka by Kapadīā 1937, one finds that the  incomplete unique manuscript of this work was possessed by Sheth Mohanlal Hemacand Jhaveri.

I wonder if anybody knows where this manuscript is right now.

The majestic but unfinished Pingree ’s Census cannot unfortunately  help!

Any suggestions?

The edition was published by the Baroda Oriental Institute.  By the way, I am going to Gujarat for research reasons sometimes in the next year. 

Thank you very much in advance,

yours,

Alessandra Petrocchi.
