Maciej Zworski

Maciej Zworski ( born October 8, 1963 in Wrocław ) is a Polish- Canadian- American mathematician who deals with partial differential equations ( micro- local analysis, scattering theory ).

Zworski studied at Imperial College London and from 1983 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he received his doctorate in 1989 with Richard Melrose ( High frequency scattering by a convex obstacle ). He was Benjamin Peirce 1989-1992 Lecturer at Harvard University, from 1992, Associate Professor and from 1994 professor at the Johns Hopkins University, from 1995 professor at the University of Toronto and since 1998 professor at the University of California, Berkeley.

He was visiting professor at various universities in Paris, at the MSRI, IHES am, at the universities of Nantes and Grenoble, at the Ecole Polytechnique and at the Erwin Schrödinger Institute for Mathematical Physics in Vienna. 2002 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Beijing (Quantum Resonances and Partial Differential Equations ).

In 1999 he received the Coxeter - James Prize. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (1998) and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (2010). 1991 to 1993 he was Sloan Fellow.
