Israel Gohberg
Israel Gohberg (Hebrew ישראל גוכברג; Russian Израиль Цудикович Гохберг; born August 23, 1928 in Tarutino; † 12 October 2009) was a Soviet- Israeli mathematician who worked on functional analysis and matrix theory.
Life and work
Gohberg went in Frunze (now Bishkek ) in Kyrgyzstan to school. He then studied at the University of Kishinev founded in 1945 in the Moldavian SSR and at the Leningrad University, where he received his doctorate in 1954 with Mark Krein ( candidates work).
He habilitated at the Lomonosov University in Moscow (Russian: Doctor of Science ). He was then the College of Education in Belzy and Soroki in Moldova before he became a professor in Kishinev and a member of the Moldovan Academy of Sciences ( 1964).
In 1969 he decided to emigrate to Israel, but he and his family were given until 1974 Visa. In Israel, he was a professor at Tel Aviv University and the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot. In 1983 he became a professor at the University of Amsterdam. He has been a visiting professor at the University of Calgary and the University of Maryland at College Park.
Gohberg concerned with integral equations and operator theory. He co-founded the magazine " Integral Equations and Operator Theory". He has published over 500 works and supervised more than 40 doctoral students.
In 1992 he was awarded the Alexander von Humboldt Prize. He received an honorary doctorate in 1997 from the Technical University of Darmstadt, 2001 by the Vienna University of Technology in 2002 from the University of the West Timişoara and 2008 from the Technion.
