from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Daniel Sion Kubert (born October 18, 1947 in Philadelphia , † January 5, 2010 ) was an American mathematician who dealt with algebraic number theory .

Kubert attended Central High School in Philadelphia and attended courses at the University of Pennsylvania as a student . He received his bachelor's degree from Brown University and received his PhD from Harvard University in 1973 with Barry Mazur (Universal Bounds on the Torsion and Isogenies of Elliptic Curves). In the 1970s he worked with Serge Lang at Yale University . Soon after, he moved to Cornell University . In 1979/80 and 1984/85 he was at the Institute for Advanced Study . He was an assistant professor at Cornell University in the early 1980s.

With Serge Lang he introduced modular units in 1975 as special units in the ring of whole numbers of the body of modular functions.

In 1976 he was an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow .
