No single person made mathematics: it was, and continues to be, the combined effort of thousands of mathematicians.
Judgment call. 'Best' in what way? I like Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) but there are many other candidates.
There is no evidence that Einstein made even one great contribution to mathematics. Einstein relied heavily on mathematics to provide his contributions to physics, of which there are many.
Although he made enormously important contributions to physics, his contribution to mathematics was limited. The non-existence of a fixed frame of reference is probably the most significant mathematical contribution - as opposed to contribution to physics.
The father of algebra is known as Diophantus. He made great contributions to mathematics in the form of number theory.

There are hundreds of mathematicians, from all over the world, at the highest level who have made contributions to all areas of mathematics. To list them all together would be exceedingly difficult. However, further information can be via the related links.

Leibniz and Newton are credited with inventing calculus. They made their discoveries independently at about the same time. Leibniz invented the dx/dy notation used today . He also made other contributions to math.
Early Muslim mathematicians made critical advances in algebra, geometry and trigometry, which lead in turn to the mathematics of calculus. See relate links.
Most empires have had people who made major contributions: The Hellenic, Roman, Chinese, and British Empires have all had mathematicians, authors and scientists and artists.
