from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Laurent Clozel (born October 23, 1953 in Gap ) is a French mathematician who works with the Langlands program .

Life

Clozel studied from 1972 at the École normal supérieure and received his doctorate under Michel Duflo . From 1984 to 1985 he was an assistant professor at Princeton University , then from 1985 to 1987 professor at the University of Michigan . In 1986 he received a research grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation ( Sloan Research Fellowship ). He worked several times at the Institute for Advanced Study . He is a professor at the University of Paris-South in Orsay .

In 1999 he received the Elie Cartan Prize of the French Academy of Sciences for work on base changes in the theory of automorphic forms. From 1994 to 1999 he was a member of the Institut Universitaire de France. In 1986 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in Berkeley ( Base change for GL (n) ).

With Richard Taylor , Nicholas Shepherd-Barron and Michael Harris , he proved the Sato-Tate conjecture (by Mikio Satō and John T. Tate ).
