Henri Darmon

Henri Darmon ( born October 22, 1965 in Paris ) is a Canadian mathematician who deals with number theory.

Darmon studied at McGill University (Bachelor 1987) computer science and mathematics, and in 1991 at Benedict Gross Harvard University PhD ( Refined class number formulas for derivatives of L- series). After three years at Princeton University as an instructor and assistant professor last 1994 he became Assistant Professor at McGill University. In 1997 he became associate professor there, Professor in 2000 and 2005, James McGill Professor. Since 1998 he is Director of the CICMA (Centre de Calcul Interuniversitaire Mathématique algébrique ). and since 1999 a member of the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques (CRM). He has been a visiting professor at the University of Paris VI, the ETH Zurich, the University of Pavia, the University of Barcelona, the Korean Institute for Advanced Study and the Saga University in Japan and scholars among others at the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques ( IHES ), at the Harish - Chandra Institute, Allahabad, the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute ( MSRI ) in Berkeley and at the Institute Henri Poincaré.

Darmon deals with algebraic number theory and number theory, elliptic curves, especially with the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton - Dyer ( also in p- adic version ), the analytical structure of class bodies (12th problem of Hilbert ) and in the environment of Fermat 's conjecture.

1996 to 1998 he was Sloan Fellow. In 1998 he received the Coxeter - James Prize of the Canadian Mathematical Society, 1996 G. de B. Robinson Award, in 1997 the Prix André Aisenstadt, 2002 Ribenboim Prize and since 2003 he is a member of the Royal Society of Canada, the John L. Synge Award he received in 2008. In 2006 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid ( Heegner points, Stark - Heegner points and special values ​​of - L- Functions)

It has both the Canadian as the French and Swiss nationality.
