Wendelin Werner

Wendelin Werner is a Mathématicien French, Professor of mathematics to the Université Paris XI and the National university and prize winner of the Médaille Fields in 2006.

Born in Germany in 1968, it was naturalized French at the nine years age. Werner carried out his studies with the Franco-German Lycée of Buc, then its preparatory classes with the Lycée Shakes in Versailles before integrating the National university between 1987 and 1991. It is directed towards the Probabilités and carried out its thesis under the direction of Jean-François Gall. It obtained the title of doctor in 1993 with the Université Pierre and Marie Curie. It is named mathematics professor at the University Paris-XI Orsay in 1997. It received the price of the European Company of Mathematics in 2000, the Prix Fermat in 2001, Loève Prize in 2005, year when he becomes professor of mathematics of the National university, and Pòlya Prize the following year. In August 2006, it became the probabilistic first and the ninth French to receive the Médaille Fields, at the same time as three other mathematicians.

The work of Wendelin Werner concerns in particular the probabilistic phenomena like the random steps car-avoiding and the Brownian Movement plane. With Greg Lawler and Oded Schramm, it showed in 1999 the conjecture of Mandelbrot, according to which the Dimension of Hausdorff of the envelope of a plane Brownian movement is of 4/3.

Another cord with its arc, Wendelin Werner played in 1982 in the film the Busy one of the Without-Concern of Jacques Rouffio, with Romy Schneider and Michel Piccoli.
