André Néron
André Néron (November 30, 1922, La Clayette, France – April 6, 1985, Paris, France) was a French mathematician at the Université de Poitiers who worked on elliptic curves and abelian varieties. He discovered the Néron minimal model of an elliptic curve or abelian variety, the Néron differential, the Néron–Severi group, the Néron–Ogg–Shafarevich criterion, the local height and Néron–Tate height of rational points on an abelian variety over a discrete valuation ring or Dedekind domain, and classified the possible fibers of an elliptic fibration. Life and career He was a student of Albert Châtelet, and his PhD students were Jean-Louis Colliot-Thélène and Gérard Ligozat. He gave invited talks at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1954 and 1966 . In 1983 the Académie des sciences awarded him the Émile Picard Medal The Émile Picard Medal (or Médaille Émile Picard) is a medal named for Émile Picard awarded every 6 years to an outstanding ...

Rational Point
In number theory and algebraic geometry, a rational point of an algebraic variety is a point whose coordinates belong to a given field. If the field is not mentioned, the field of rational numbers is generally understood. If the field is the field of real numbers, a rational point is more commonly called a real point. Understanding rational points is a central goal of number theory and Diophantine geometry. For example, Fermat's Last Theorem may be restated as: for , the Fermat curve of equation x^n+y^n=1 has no other rational points than , , and, if is even, and . Definition Given a field ''k'', and an algebraically closed extension ''K'' of ''k'', an affine variety ''X'' over ''k'' is the set of common zeros in K^n of a collection of polynomials with coefficients in ''k'': :f_1(x_1,\ldots,x_n)=0,\ldots, f_r(x_1,\dots,x_n)=0. These common zeros are called the ''points'' of ''X''. A ''k''-rational point (or ''k''-point) of ''X'' is a point of ''X'' that belongs to ''k''''n'', ...

Academic Staff Of The University Of Poitiers
An academy (Attic Greek: Ἀκαδήμεια; Koine Greek Ἀκαδημία) is an institution of secondary or tertiary higher learning (and generally also research or honorary membership). The name traces back to Plato's school of philosophy, founded approximately 385 BC at Akademia, a sanctuary of Athena, the goddess of wisdom and skill, north of Athens, Greece. Etymology The word comes from the ''Academy'' in ancient Greece, which derives from the Athenian hero, ''Akademos''. Outside the city walls of Athens, the gymnasium was made famous by Plato as a center of learning. The sacred space, dedicated to the goddess of wisdom, Athena, had formerly been an olive grove, hence the expression "the groves of Academe". In these gardens, the philosopher Plato conversed with followers. Plato developed his sessions into a method of teaching philosophy and in 387 BC, established what is known today as the Old Academy. By extension, ''academia'' has come to mean the accumulation, d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Ergebnisse Der Mathematik Und Ihrer Grenzgebiete
''Ergebnisse der Mathematik und ihrer Grenzgebiete''/''A Series of Modern Surveys in Mathematics'' is a series of scholarly monographs published by Springer Science+Business Media. The title literally means "Results in mathematics and related areas". Most of the books were published in German or English, but there were a few in French and Italian. There have been several sequences, or ''Folge'': the original series, neue Folge, and 3.Folge. Some of the most significant mathematical monographs of 20th century appeared in this series. Original series The series started in 1932 with publication of ''Knotentheorie'' by Kurt Reidemeister as "Band 1" (English: volume 1). There seems to have been double numeration in this sequence. Neue Folge This sequence started in 1950 with the publication of ''Transfinite Zahlen'' by Heinz Bachmann. The volumes are consecutively numbered, designated as either "Band" or "Heft". A total of 100 volumes was published, often in multiple editions, but pre ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Académie Des Sciences
The French Academy of Sciences (French: ''Académie des sciences'') is a learned society, founded in 1666 by Louis XIV at the suggestion of Jean-Baptiste Colbert, to encourage and protect the spirit of French scientific research. It was at the forefront of scientific developments in Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, and is one of the earliest Academies of Sciences. Currently headed by Patrick Flandrin (President of the Academy), it is one of the five Academies of the Institut de France. History The Academy of Sciences traces its origin to Colbert's plan to create a general academy. He chose a small group of scholars who met on 22 December 1666 in the King's library, near the present-day Bibliothèque Nationals, and thereafter held twice-weekly working meetings there in the two rooms assigned to the group. The first 30 years of the Academy's existence were relatively informal, since no statutes had as yet been laid down for the institution. In contrast to its British ...

International Congress Of Mathematicians
The International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) is the largest conference for the topic of mathematics. It meets once every four years, hosted by the International Mathematical Union (IMU). The Fields Medals, the Nevanlinna Prize (to be renamed as the IMU Abacus Medal), the Carl Friedrich Gauss Prize, Gauss Prize, and the Chern Medal are awarded during the congress's opening ceremony. Each congress is memorialized by a printed set of Proceedings recording academic papers based on invited talks intended to be relevant to current topics of general interest. Being List of International Congresses of Mathematicians Plenary and Invited Speakers, invited to talk at the ICM has been called "the equivalent ... of an induction to a hall of fame".
