Jacques Martinet
Jacques Martinet (born October 31, 1939 in Grenoble ) is a French mathematician who deals with number theory.
Martinet studied at the University of Grenoble with a licentiate degree in 1961 and a doctorate (Doctorat de troisième cycle) in 1964 with Claude Chabauty ( Propriétés arithmétiques des cubiques de genre un dans un corps de nombres algébriques ). In 1968 he completed his habilitation there (Doctorat d'Etat, Sur l'arithméetique des extensions galoisiennes á groupe de Galois diedral d'ordre 2p ). 1966 to 1968 he was Attaché de Recherches of the CNRS . In 1968 he became maitre de conférences and in 1971 professor at the University of Bordeaux , where he retired in 1999 and was head of the A2X laboratory (Laboratoire d'Algorithmique Arithmétique et Expérimentale) from 1993 to 1998 .
He deals with algebraic number theory (Galois module structure, discriminants), algorithmic number theory and geometry of numbers (Euclidean lattice).
With Henri Cohen he gave the Cohen- Lenstra heuristics for the class number of quadratic number fields analogous conjectures for higher number fields (Cohen-Martinet heuristics).
He has been married since 1967 and has two children.
His PhD students include Henri Cohen , Marie-France Vignéras and Philippe Cassou-Noguès .
