Israel Gelfand

Israel Gelfand (in Russian: RU ИзраильМоисеевичГельфанд) (born in 1913 with Okny, Kherson in Ukraine, then in the Russian Empire) is a Mathématicien which works in analyzes functional, that it in the broad sense interprets like mathematical the “quantum mechanics” . He wrote many articles with Muscovite mathematicians. He held a seminar in Moscow. In 1990, it accepted a Visiteur post of professor Distinguished with the Université Rutgers in the New Jersey. It also for a long time is interested in the cellular Biologie.

It is known for many things, of which:

the Representation of Gelfand in the theory of the algebras of Banach;
the Theorem of Gelfand-Naimark;
the Construction of Gelfand-Naimark-Segal;
the Theory of the representations of the traditional groups of Dregs complex;
of the contributions to the theory of the Distribution S and the measures to spaces of infinite size;
first observation of the relationship between the forms automorphes and the representations (with Fomin);
of the conjectures about the Theorem of the index;
the theory of Gelfand-Levitan for the ordinary differential equations;
the equation of Gelfand-Dikii in the Calculation of the variations and the theory of the Soliton S;
cohomology of Gelfand-Fuks of the Flaky preparation S;
the dimension of Gelfand-Kirillov;
the combinative definition of the classes of Pontryagin;
functors of Coxeter;
the hypergeometric series generalized.

It was interested also much in teaching of mathematics, in particular by correspondence.

It received the first Prix Wolf in 1978.
