Tadeusz Iwaniec

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tadeusz Iwaniec (born October 9, 1947 in Elbląg ) is a Polish-American mathematician who deals with analysis .

Iwaniec studied at the University of Warsaw , where he obtained his doctorate in 1975 and completed his habilitation in 1979. He was assistant professor there and from 1981 to 1983 professor at the Polish Academy of Sciences . In 1978/79 he was visiting professor at Lomonossow University , 1979 at the University of Bonn , 1981 at the University of Pisa and 1982 in Helsinki. In 1983/84 he was at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, 1984/85 at the University of Texas at Austin , 1985/86 at the Courant Institute and since 1986 he has been a professor at Syracuse University . Since 1996 he has been the John Raymond French Distinguished Professor of Mathematics there.

He is particularly concerned with nonlinear analysis and geometric function theory .

He is a US citizen. He is the twin brother of the mathematician Henryk Iwaniec .

In 2005 he became an external member of the Polish Academy of Sciences, member of the Academia di Scienze Fisiche e Matematiche, external member of the Finnish Academy of Sciences (2012) and he received an honorary doctorate in Helsinki in 2007. In 2002 he received the William Wasserstrom Prize at Syracuse University and in 2001 the Institute Henri Poincaré Prize for his work Quasiharmonic Fields . In 1983 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Warsaw (Some aspects of partial differential equations and quasi-regular mappings). In 1980 he received the President's Prize of the Polish Academy of Sciences.
