Bas Edixhoven
Sebastiaan Johan "Bas" Edixhoven (born March 12, 1962 in Leiden ) is a Dutch mathematician who deals with number theory and arithmetic algebraic geometry .
life and work
Edixhoven studied at the University of Utrecht , where he received his diploma in 1985 and his doctorate in 1989 under Frans Oort (and Bert van Geemen ) ( stable models of modular forms and applications ). From 1989 to 1991 he was an assistant professor at the University of California, Berkeley and then a year as a Huygens scholar in Utrecht. From 1992 to 2002 he was professor at the University of Rennes I (from 1998 with full professorship) and then professor at the University of Leiden . In 1997 he was Miller Visiting Professor at Berkeley and in 1998 at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research .
Edixhoven partly achieved results with his student Andrei Yafaev in relation to the conjecture of Yves André and Frans Oort about sub-varieties of Shimura varieties, that is, he gave evidence for special cases. In addition to arithmetic algebraic geometry, modular forms and number theory, he deals with error-correcting codes (which he researched on behalf of the French Ministry of Defense and Canon ).
Since 2003 he has been co-editor of Compositio Mathematica and from 1998 to 2004 of the Journal de Theory des Nombres des Bordeaux. He is co-editor of Expositiones Mathematicae and the Journal of Number Theory.
From 1989 to 1992 he was a Constantin and Christiaan Huygens Fellow of the Dutch Research Organization (NWO). From 1995 to 2002 he was a member of the Institut Universitaire de France. He has been a member of the Dutch Academy of Sciences since 2009 (after being a corresponding member in 2001). In 2008 he was invited speaker at the European Congress of Mathematicians ( On the computation of coefficients of modular forms ).
Andrei Yafaev and Gabor Wiese are among his PhD students .
