Michel Duflo
Michel Duflo (* 1943 ) is a French mathematician who deals with representation theory of Lie groups .
Duflo studied from 1962 at the École normal supérieure and received his doctorate under Jacques Dixmier . He is Professor at the University of Paris VII (Denis Diderot) at the Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu and at the École normal supérieure.
Duflo worked a. a. about the orbit method by Alexander Kirillow . From Kirillow comes a conjecture about an isomorphism between the invariant sub-algebra of the symmetric algebra of a Lie algebra and the center of the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra , which was proven by Duflo (Duflo isomorphism).
In 1974 he was invited speaker at the ICM in Vancouver ( Inversion formula and invariant differential operators on solvable Lie groups ).
Duflo received the Prix Le Conte of the Academie des Sciences. In 1986 he became a corresponding member of the French Academy of Sciences . Laurent Clozel is one of his doctoral students .
Duflo is the father of the French economist and Nobel Prize winner Esther Duflo .
