Pierre Schapira (mathematician)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pierre Schapira (born April 28, 1943 ) is a French mathematician.

Schapira received his doctorate from Pierre-Louis Lions in Paris, with a work that used the concept of hyperfunction by Mikio Satō , which was made famous in France around 1965 by André Martineau . This earned him an invitation to Sato in Kyoto in 1971 , where he met Masaki Kashiwara . He was a professor at the University of Paris XIII in the 1980s and has been a professor at the University of Paris VI since the 1990s .

He deals with algebraic analysis, especially the micro-local analysis founded by Sato , which he combined with concepts of the French school of analysts (Garben after Jean Leray and derived categories after Alexander Grothendieck ). He worked closely with Kashiwara, whom he met in Japan in 1971, who was then in Paris in 1976/77 and with whom he published several books.

In 1990 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Kyōto ( Sheaf theory for partial differential equations ). He is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society .
