No, Newton and Leibniz independently developed calculus.
Newton and Leibniz
No, Einstein did not invent calculus, Isaac Newton did. Liebniz did as well at around the same time and there was a major debate on who invented calculus first, but I think the more popular answer is Isaac Newton. Put Leibniz–Newton calculus controversy into wiki for an artcile about this debate.
Everything but notation. Newton calculus is a little under developed because of its once scarce use.
The argument between Newton and Liebniz (and others) revolved around whether or not Newton was the first to invent calculus and/or if Leibniz developed his calculus independently of Newton or if he simply used different notation.The problem was that Newton did not publish his initial work.
