Daniel Tătaru (also Daniel Tataru , born May 6, 1967 in Romania ) is a Romanian-American mathematician who deals with analysis.

Life

Tataru grew up in Piatra Neamț in Romania and won three national and two international mathematics Olympiad as a student. He studied at the University of Iasi . His diploma thesis in 1990 with Viorel Barbu was about Hamilton-Jacobi equations in Banach spaces and nonlinear semigroups, it won a prize from the Romanian Academy of Sciences ( Gheorghe Țițeica prize). In 1992 he received his PhD from the University of Virginia with Irena Lasiecka . He was then an assistant professor at Northwestern University , where he became an associate professor in 1996 and a professor in 1999. From 2001 he is a professor at the University of California, Berkeley . From 1995 to 1997 he was at the Institute for Advanced Study .

Tataru deals with Carleman estimates and questions of the unambiguous continuability of partial differential equations with applications in control theory. Later mainly with nonlinear dispersive partial differential equations and their connections to harmonic analysis, geometry and mathematical physics.

In 2002 he received the Bôcher Memorial Prize for his work On Global Existence and Scattering for the Wave Maps Equations on the geometrically important wave map , a generalized wave equation. Tataru's work was the prerequisite for the progress made by Terence Tao on the regularity of these equations.

He is an honorary member of the Simion Stoilow Institute for Mathematics in Bucharest. In 2002 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in Beijing ( Nonlinear wave equations ). From 1995 to 1997 he was a Sloan Research Fellow . He is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society and was accepted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2014.
