Ricardo Mañé

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ricardo Mañé Ramirez (born January 14, 1948 in Montevideo , † March 9, 1995 ibid) was a Uruguayan mathematician who dealt with the theory of dynamic systems and ergodic theory and worked in Brazil.

Life

Mañé studied at the University of Montevideo (with Jorge Lewowicz) and received his doctorate in 1973 with Jacob Palis at the Instituto Nacional de Matemática Pura e Aplicada (IMPA) in Rio de Janeiro. He researched and taught at IMPA.

In 1974 he showed that normal hyperbolicity is not only necessary for the persistence of invariant manifolds (as was already known from Morris Hirsch , Charles C. Pugh , Michael Shub ), but also sufficient. In 1988 he proved the presumption of stability for C1 diffeomorphisms . His Ergodic Closing Lemma was important for the proof. Various mathematical concepts are named after him. He is known for a book on ergodic theory within the theory of dynamic systems.

He wrote the sentence by Mañé-Bochi (1983).

In 1983 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Warsaw ( Oseledec's theorem from the general viewpoint ) and in 1994 in Zurich ( Ergodic variational methods: new techniques and new problems ).
