Ari Laptev

Ari Laptev ( born August 10, 1950 in Baryshevka in Kiev) is a native of the Soviet Union, the Swedish mathematician who deals with partial differential equations and various aspects of mathematical physics.

Life

Laptev studied mathematics at the University of Leningrad, where in 1972 he made ​​his diploma and was awarded his doctorate in 1978 at Michael Solomjak ( Solomyak ). He conducted research at the University of Leningrad then and in 1977 assistant professor. After 1982, he married a British woman, he lost his job at the university. He emigrated in 1987 and a lecturer at the University of Linköping and 1992 at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm ( KTH ). Since 1999 he has been a professor there ( and from 1999 to 2006 deputy head of the mathematics faculty), but leave the meantime, he also professor at Imperial College London since 2007, where until 2010 the Faculty he presided in 2008, and since 2011 director of the Mittag-Leffler Institute.

He conducts research on spectral theory of partial differential equations, especially Schrödinger operators, Lieb - Thirring inequalities, trace formulas, inverse problems, global solutions of wave equations, the Polya conjecture, generalized Szegö problems and pseudo-differential operators.

2007 to 2010 he was President of the European Mathematical Society. In 2007 he received a Wolfson Research Merit Award from the Royal Society. In 2004 he was president of the organizing committee of the 4th European Congress of Mathematicians in Stockholm. 2007 to 2013 he is with the Council of the London Mathematical Society from 2012 to 2014 and in the Steering Committee of the International Association of Mathematical Physics.

His doctoral include Timo Weidl (Professor in Stuttgart), Rupert Frank (Professor at Caltech ).

He is editor of Acta Mathematica since 2011 and the Arkiv för Matematik. Since 2010 he is co-editor of the Journal of spectral theory.
