Quiquet graduated from the École Normale Supérieure in 1883. He became in 1886 an actuary at one of the largest French insurance companies, ''La Nationale Compagnie d'Assurances sur la vie'', and later became the chief actuary there, a position he held for nearly 30 years.

Henri Poincaré
Jules Henri Poincaré ( S: stress final syllable ; 29 April 1854 – 17 July 1912) was a French mathematician, theoretical physicist, engineer, and philosopher of science. He is often described as a polymath, and in mathematics as "The Last Universalist", since he excelled in all fields of the discipline as it existed during his lifetime. As a mathematician and physicist, he made many original fundamental contributions to pure and applied mathematics, mathematical physics, and celestial mechanics. In his research on the three-body problem, Poincaré became the first person to discover a chaotic deterministic system which laid the foundations of modern chaos theory. He is also considered to be one of the founders of the field of topology. Poincaré made clear the importance of paying attention to the invariance of laws of physics under different transformations, and was the first to present the Lorentz transformations in their modern symmetrical form. Poincaré discove ...

Institute Of Actuaries Of France
The Institute of Actuaries (french: Institut des Actuaires) is the association of actuaries in France. The Institute was created in 2001 by a merger of the Institute of Actuaries of France and the French Federation of Actuaries. The Institute is a full member of the International Actuarial Association and the Groupe Consultatif The Actuarial Association of Europe (AAE) was established in 1978 as Groupe Consultatif des Associations d'Actuaires des Pays des Communautés Européennes (GC)renamedto Groupe Consultatif Actuariel Européen in 2002, angiven its present nameon Ja .... As of 2012, it has about 3 000 full members. Current president of the Institute is Thomas Behar. In France the education of future actuaries will be facilitated by the national education system. The actuarial profession in France, in itself, has no such responsibility any more. But accrediting the diplomas awarded to the future actuaries is the responsibility of the French actuarial profession. Note that, the ...

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.
