François Golse

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

François Golse (born September 10, 1962 in Talence ) is a French mathematician.

Golse in 1986 at the University of Paris XIII in Claude Bardos doctorate ( Contribution à l'étude of equations du transfert radiatif ). In 1987 he became a scientist at the CNRS at the École normal supérieure . In 1993 he became a professor at the University of Paris VI . He has been a professor at the École polytechnique since 2006 .

Golse deals with partial differential equations . With Laure Saint-Raymond in 2004 he showed a connection between the weak solutions of the Boltzmann equation and the Leray solutions of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation . For these mathematically strict results on the hydrodynamic limit value of the Boltzmann equation of gas dynamics , he and Saint-Raymond received the SIAG-APDE Prize of the SIAM in 2006 (for the best work on partial differential equations). He also deals with other equations of mathematical physics (distribution of free path lengths in Lorentz gas, hydrodynamic limit values ​​of other kinetic equations, time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory ).

In 2004 he gave one of the plenary lectures at the European Congress of Mathematicians ( Hydrodynamic limits ). He was invited speaker at the ICM 2006 in Madrid ( The periodic Lorentz-Gas in the Boltzmann-Grad limit ).

He is a member of the Institut Universitaire de France. He received the Louis Armand Prize of the French Academy of Sciences and the Claude-Antoine Peccot Prize of the Collège de France .
