Miwa studied at the University of Tokyo , where he worked in the early 1970s under the influence of Mikio Satō and Masaki Kashiwara with micro-local analysis and hyperfunctions . He was a professor at the University of Kyoto and at the RIMS ( Research Institute for Mathematical Sciences ) in Kyoto.

With Mikio Satō and Michio Jimbō he discovered a connection with monodromic-preserved ( isomonodromic ) deformations of linear differential equations and correlation functions in the Ising model in the 1970s . With Jimbō he then examined general isomonodromic deformations of linear differential equations (started by Ludwig Schlesinger at the beginning of the 20th century ).

With Jimbō and Etsurō Date he examined the role of affine Lie algebras in soliton equations , and with Jimbō the role of quantum groups in exactly solvable lattice models of statistical mechanics.

In 1987 he and Michio Jimbō received the Autumn Prize of the Japanese Mathematical Society .

In 1998 he gave a plenary lecture at the ICM in Berlin ( Solvable Lattice Models and Representation Theory of Quantum Affine Algebras ) and in 1986 he was invited speaker at the ICM in Berkeley ( Integrable lattice models and branching coefficients ).

For 2013, he and Jimbō were awarded the Dannie Heineman Prize for Mathematical Physics for their fundamental developments in the field of integrable systems and their correlation functions in statistical mechanics and quantum field theory, using quantum groups, algebraic analysis and deformation theory .
