Joram Lindenstrauss

Joram Lindenstrauss ( born October 28, 1936 in Tel Aviv, † 29 April 2012) was an Israeli mathematician.

Life and work

Joram Lindenstrauss (whose parents emigrated from Berlin to Israel ) studied 1955 to 1962 at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem Shmuel Agmon, Branko Grünbaum and Aryeh Dvoretzky. He was there received his doctorate in 1962 with the dissertation Extension of Compact Operators in Dvoretzky and green tree. After that, he was a post-doc at Yale University and in Seattle, before he returned in 1965 to the Hebrew University as a member of the Einstein Institute of Mathematics. Since 1969 he was a professor there (since 1985 Professor Miller ). He was, inter alia, Visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, in Stockholm, at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, and at the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques ( IHES ).

Lindenstrauss ' main areas of work were functional analysis, Banachraumgeometrie and convexity ( in finite and infinite dimensions ). He found a short proof of the Konvexitätssatzes of Lyapunov from the measure theory. Many of his students in Israel were professors.

1981, the Israel Prize, he was awarded. In 1997 he received the Stefan Banach Medal. He was a member of the Israel Academy of Sciences. His doctoral counts Assaf Naor. In 1970 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Nice (The geometric theory of classical Banach spaces the ).

Elon Lindenstrauss, also a mathematician, is the son of Joram Lindenstrauss.
