Ronald Raphael Coifman (born June 29, 1941 in Tel Aviv ) is an Israeli-American mathematician who deals with harmonic analysis .

Coifman studied at the University of Geneva , where he received his doctorate in 1965 under Jovan Karamata . From the 1970s he was a professor at Washington University . In 1970 he received a research grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation ( Sloan Research Fellowship ). Since 1980 he has been the Phillips Professor of Mathematics at Yale University .

Coifman dealt with nonlinear Fourier analysis, wavelets and numerical methods of spectral analysis.

In 1999 he received the National Medal of Science . He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences , the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the Connecticut Academy of Sciences and Engineering. In 2002 he was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science . In 1999 he received the SIAM Pioneer Award . In 1996 he received the DARPA Sustained Excellency Award and the Connecticut Science Medal. In 1990 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Kyoto ( Adapted multiresolution analysis, computation, signal processing and operator theory ). In 2018 he is plenary speaker at the ICM in Rio ( Harmonic analytic geometry on subsets in high dimensions - Empirical models ). For 2018 he was awarded the Rolf Schock Prize .

Christoph Thiele is one of his doctoral students .
