Amongst other things they independently invented calculus. Newton probably made the first discovery, but delayed publishing for many years. Leibniz also held off publishing for a long time, waiting, apparently for Newton to do it. Eventually Leibniz published anyway. They became bitter rivals.

Isaac newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz independently developed the concept of calculus in the late 17th century. They each made significant contributions to the field, with Newton originating the method of fluxions and Leibniz introducing the notation of calculus that is still used today. Their work laid the foundation for modern mathematics and science.

Who is the father of calculus Newton or Leibniz?

Both of them came up with the concept (semi-) independently; both were aware that the other was working on it and in fact they exchanged letters on the subject, but they approached it from different directions (Newton started with differentiation, Leibniz started with integration). Going by their private papers it appears that Newton was further along earlier than Leibniz, but Leibniz published a full description much earlier than Newton did.
