Bernardo Uribe

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bernardo Uribe Jongbloed (* 1975 ) is a Colombian mathematician.

Uribe went to school in Bogota, studied at the Universidad de Los Andes from 1994 to 1998, and received his doctorate from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2002 with Alejandro Ádem (dissertation: Twisted K-Theory and Orbifold Cohomology of the Symmetric Product). As a post-doctoral student he was at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn. In 2003/04 he was an Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan. He taught as a professor at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia and the Universidad de los Andes (full professorship from 2012) and has been a professor at the Universidad del Norte in Barranquilla since 2014. In 2008/09 he was visiting scholar in Mexico City and in 2010 with Wolfgang Lück at the University of Münster.

Uribe deals with algebraic geometry and topology also with applications in the field of string theory.

In 2012 he received a Humboldt Research Award with which he was at the University of Bonn.

Uribe received the Mathematics Prize of the Third World Academy of Sciences in 2012 . He was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro 2018 (The evenness conjecture in equivariant unitary bordism). From 2017 to 2019 he is President of the Colombian Mathematical Society.
