Ernst-Ulrich Gekeler

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ernst-Ulrich Gekeler (born March 25, 1951 in Tübingen ) is a German mathematician who deals with arithmetic algebraic geometry , algebraic number theory and automorphic forms. Since 1991 he has been a professor at Saarland University .

Gekeler studied mathematics and physics in Tübingen and Bonn as a scholarship holder of the German National Academic Foundation with a diploma in mathematics in 1974. The number-theoretical topic of his diploma thesis was quadratic forms over elliptical function bodies . Gekeler received his doctorate in 1979 at the University of Bonn under Günter Harder ( Drinfeld modules and modular forms over rational function bodies ). He was at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, at IHES and the Institute for Advanced Study , among others . In 1986 he completed his habilitation. Gekeler was a Heisenberg fellow from the German Research Foundation from 1988 to 1991 .

He deals with arithmetic of global function fields , elliptic curves , as well as module functions and Drinfeld modules. He also deals with combinatorics and computer algebra .

Gekeler was the managing editor of the journal Archiv der Mathematik from 2003 to 2015 .
