Philip Caesar Kutzko (* November 24, 1946 in Brooklyn ) is an American mathematician who deals with number theory and representation theory ( Langlands program).

Kutzko studied mathematics at the City College of New York with a bachelor 's degree in 1967 and at the University of Wisconsin -Madison, where in 1968 his master's degree was awarded and received his doctorate in 1972 at Donald McQuillan (The characters of the binary modular congruence groups ). As a post-doctoral researcher from 1972 to 1974 he was instructor at Princeton University, and in 1974 Assistant Professor, Associate Professor in 1977 and 1980, a professor at the University of Iowa.

In 1980 he proved the (local) Langlands conjecture for the general linear group in local bodies. He was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1986 in Berkeley ( On the supercuspidal representations of p- adic and other groups). He has been married since 1967 and has one child.
