Lucien Waelbroeck (* 1929 in Geneva ; † 2009 in Brussels ) was a Belgian mathematician who deals with functional analysis .

Waelbroeck received his licentiate in 1950 and received his doctorate in 1954 with Théophile Lepage at the Free University of Brussels ( Le calcul symbolique dans les algèbres commutatives ). He had prepared his dissertation during a stay in 1953/54 at the Collège de France in Paris with Jean Leray . In 1960 he completed his habilitation (Etude spectrale des algèbres complètes). From 1962 he was Professor of Analysis at the Free University of Brussels. Among other things, he was visiting professor at Yale University .

He dealt with spectral theory and the calculus of holomorphic functionals on algebras, bornological spaces and quotient spaces.

He had many PhD students and research assistants from Morocco.
