WASHINGTON: Leading Indian-American Mathematician Nikhil Srivastava, who taught at the University of California, Berkeley, has been chosen together for Gift Foias Ciprian Perdana in operator theory by the American Mathematical Society (AMS).
Along with Nikhil Srivastava, two other recipients were Adam Marcus and Daniel Spielman. Adam Marcus holds the chairman of the Kombinatorium analysis at the Ecole Polytechnique Federal de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland. Daniel Spielman is a Professor Sterling Computer Science, a statistical professor and data science, and a mathematics professor.
The award recognizes their original works that introduce and develop methods to understand the polynomial characteristics of the matrix, namely recurring sparrator method (also working with Batson) and the interlacing pollinomial method, the word media release said.
“Together, these ideas provide a strong toolkit with many applications, especially in trio breakthrough paper” Interlacing Families II: Polynomial Mixed Characteristics and Problems of Kadison-Singer “(Annals of Mathematics, 2015), which solves” Paving Problems’ The famous “in operator theory, was formulated by Richard Kadison and Singer Isadore in 1959,” said the American Mathematics Community.
In a joint statement, the three recipients said they wanted to accept it on behalf of many people whose works contributed to the solution to the Kadison-Singer’s problem.
“Our involvement is the last chapter of the extraordinary story that we hope to inspire similar solutions for difficult problems in the future,” they said.
Prizes will be presented to Professor Nikhil Srivastava and his colleagues on January 5 next year at a mathematical meeting with 2022 in Seattle, described as “the world’s largest mathematics meeting.”
Foias Ciprian’s prize is the third main prize won by Nikhil Srivastava, who previously won the George Polya prize in 2014, and the prizes held in 2021.
