Hervé Jacquet

Hervé Michel Jacquet (* 1939 in Oullins ) is a French mathematician who deals with number theory , automorphic forms and representation theory. He is known for his work on the Langlands program .

Life

Jacquet received his doctorate in 1967 with Roger Godement at the University of Paris ( Fonctions de Whittaker associées aux groupes de Chevalley ) and then worked at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton from 1967 to 1969 . He was later a professor at the City University of New York and Columbia University . His work with Robert Langlands , carried out in Princeton in the late 1960s, was one of the first concrete elaborations of the Langlands program that Langlands conceived around 1967.

In 1977 he received the Petit d'Ormoy Prize of the French Academy of Sciences ( Académie des sciences ). In 1980 he became a corresponding member of the Académie des Sciences. In 1974 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Vancouver ( Euler products and automorphic forms ). In 2013 he was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences . He is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society .
