Paolo Piccione

Paolo Piccione (born April 24, 1964 in Rome ) is an Italian mathematician.

Piccione received his Laureate Degree in Mathematics in 1987 from the University of Rome La Sapienza and received his PhD in 1995 from the University of Pennsylvania with Adrian Ocneanu ( Discrete Regular Subalgebras of Semifinite Von Neumann Algebras ). In 1998 he completed his habilitation in Brazil and became a professor at the University of São Paulo .

He deals with the calculus of variations (Morse theory, bifurcation theory), global analysis and differential geometry, in particular semi-Riemannian geometry with applications in general relativity. Among other things, he investigated spherical-symmetrical gravitational collapse in 2003 with barotropic equations of state of matter, whereby, according to Piccione, naked singularities are formed (the case had previously been treated for the case of dust balls , i.e. vanishing pressure).

In 2012 he became a member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (ABC). As of 2018, he is President of the Brazilian Mathematical Society (SBM) and on the Council of the International Mathematical Union .
