Richard A. Brualdi

Richard Brualdi Anthony ( born September 2, 1939 in Derby, Connecticut ) is employed an American mathematician, with combinatorics, graph theory, linear algebra ( matrix theory ) and coding theory.

Brualdi studied at the University of Connecticut ( BA 1960) and at Syracuse University, where he in 1962 made ​​his master's degree and was awarded his doctorate in 1964 with Herbert Ryser ( Combinatorial Aspects of the Direct Product of the matrices ). From 1965 he was assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin -Madison, where he received a full professorship in 1973, from 2004 Beckwith Bascom Professor of Combinatorial Mathematics and was retired in 2008. In 1974 he was a visiting scholar at the University of Budapest ( as a Research Fellow of the National Academy of Sciences ) and 1969/70 as a NATO Fellow at the University of Sheffield.

In 2000 he was awarded the Euler Medal for his life's work in combinatorics. In 2005 he received the International Linear Algebra ( ILAS ) price. 1996 to 2002 he was president of the International Linear Algebra Society ( ILAS ).

Brualdi is co-editor of the Electronic Journal of Combinatorics (since 2001) and Linear Algebra and its Applications (since 1979). He has been married since 1978 and has two children.
