Semyon Grigoryevich Gindikin

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Semjon Grigoryevich Gindikin ( Russian Семён Григорьевич Гиндикин , English transcription Simon Gindikin ; born December 7, 1937 in Moscow ) is a Russian mathematician who deals with differential geometry , representation theory of Lie groups , integral geometry and function theory of several complex variables.

Gindikin 1984

As a student, Gindikin took part in several mathematics Olympiads (and achieved third place) and began his studies in Moscow in 1954 at the Pedagogical Institute (among others with Naum Wilenkin and Pyotr Sergeyevich Novikov ). From 1955 he also attended (unofficially) at Lomonosov University . In 1957 he attended Eugene Dynkin's seminar on differentiable manifolds and Lie groups and later the seminary of Israel Gelfand . He received his doctorate in 1962 under Alexander Letter at the Pedagogical Institute on multi-dimensional integral formulas for symmetrical spaces, the formulas of LK Hua extended. He worked in particular with Ilya Pyatetsky-Shapiro . In 1987 he completed his habilitation (Russian doctorate) at the Leningrad Steklov Institute . In 1988 he was able to travel to the West for the first time at the invitation of Roger Penrose , to a conference in Durham (Gindkin also worked on the Penrose transformation and twistors ). He later became a professor at Rutgers University .

In the 1960s he and Friedrich Karpelewitsch gave a formula for the c-function of Harish-Chandra , which plays a role in the representation theory of semi- simple Lie groups. In the second paper from 1966 they introduced inertwining operators .

Initially, he also dealt with logic (under the influence of Novikov).

He was co-editor of the collected works of Ilya Pyatetsky-Shapiro and Gelfand.

In 1963 he received the Moscow Mathematical Society Prize .
