Hervé Jacquet
Hervé Jacquet is a French American mathematician, working in automorphic forms. He is considered one of the founders of the theory of automorphic representations and their associated L-functions, and his results play a central role in modern number theory. Career Jacquet entered the École Normale Supérieure in 1959 and obtained his doctorat d'état under the direction of Roger Godement in 1967. He held academic positions at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (1963–1969), the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton (1967–1969), the University of Maryland at College Park (1969–1970), the Graduate Center of the City University of New York (1970–1974), and became a professor at Columbia University in 1974, becoming Professor Emeritus in 2007. Mathematical work The book by Jacquet and Robert Langlands on \operatorname(2) was an eclipsing event in the history of number theory. It presented a representation theory of automorphic forms and their associated L− ...

Columbia University
Columbia University (also known as Columbia, and officially as Columbia University in the City of New York) is a private research university in New York City. Established in 1754 as King's College on the grounds of Trinity Church in Manhattan, Columbia is the oldest institution of higher education in New York and the fifth-oldest institution of higher learning in the United States. It is one of nine colonial colleges founded prior to the Declaration of Independence. It is a member of the Ivy League. Columbia is ranked among the top universities in the world. Columbia was established by royal charter under George II of Great Britain. It was renamed Columbia College in 1784 following the American Revolution, and in 1787 was placed under a private board of trustees headed by former students Alexander Hamilton and John Jay. In 1896, the campus was moved to its current location in Morningside Heights and renamed Columbia University. Columbia scientists and scholars have ...

Whittaker Functions
In mathematics, a Whittaker function is a special solution of Whittaker's equation, a modified form of the confluent hypergeometric equation introduced by to make the formulas involving the solutions more symmetric. More generally, introduced Whittaker functions of reductive groups over local fields, where the functions studied by Whittaker are essentially the case where the local field is the real numbers and the group is SL2(R). Whittaker's equation is :\frac+\left(-\frac+\frac+\frac\right)w=0. It has a regular singular point at 0 and an irregular singular point at ∞. Two solutions are given by the Whittaker functions ''M''κ,μ(''z''), ''W''κ,μ(''z''), defined in terms of Kummer's confluent hypergeometric functions ''M'' and ''U'' by :M_\left(z\right) = \exp\left(-z/2\right)z^M\left(\mu-\kappa+\tfrac, 1+2\mu, z\right) :W_\left(z\right) = \exp\left(-z/2\right)z^U\left(\mu-\kappa+\tfrac, 1+2\mu, z\right). The Whittaker function W_(z) is the same as those with opposite val ...

Whittaker Models
In representation theory, a branch of mathematics, the Whittaker model is a realization of a representation of a reductive algebraic group such as ''GL''2 over a finite or local or global field on a space of functions on the group. It is named after E. T. Whittaker even though he never worked in this area, because pointed out that for the group SL2(R) some of the functions involved in the representation are Whittaker functions. Irreducible representations without a Whittaker model are sometimes called "degenerate", and those with a Whittaker model are sometimes called "generic". The representation ''θ''10 of the symplectic group Sp4 is the simplest example of a degenerate representation. Whittaker models for GL2 If ''G'' is the algebraic group ''GL''2 and F is a local field, and is a fixed non-trivial character of the additive group of F and is an irreducible representation of a general linear group ''G''(F), then the Whittaker model for is a representation on a space of ...

Annals Of Mathematics
The ''Annals of Mathematics'' is a mathematical journal published every two months by Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study. History The journal was established as ''The Analyst'' in 1874 and with Joel E. Hendricks as the founding editor-in-chief. It was "intended to afford a medium for the presentation and analysis of any and all questions of interest or importance in pure and applied Mathematics, embracing especially all new and interesting discoveries in theoretical and practical astronomy, mechanical philosophy, and engineering". It was published in Des Moines, Iowa, and was the earliest American mathematics journal to be published continuously for more than a year or two. This incarnation of the journal ceased publication after its tenth year, in 1883, giving as an explanation Hendricks' declining health, but Hendricks made arrangements to have it taken over by new management, and it was continued from March 1884 as the ''Annals of Mathematics''. The n ...

Ilya Piatetski-Shapiro
Ilya Piatetski-Shapiro (Hebrew: איליה פיאטצקי-שפירו; russian: Илья́ Ио́сифович Пяте́цкий-Шапи́ро; 30 March 1929 – 21 February 2009) was a Soviet-born Israeli mathematician. During a career that spanned 60 years he made major contributions to applied science as well as pure mathematics. In his last forty years his research focused on pure mathematics; in particular, analytic number theory, group representations and algebraic geometry. His main contribution and impact was in the area of automorphic forms and L-functions. For the last 30 years of his life he suffered from Parkinson's disease. However, with the help of his wife Edith, he was able to continue to work and do mathematics at the highest level, even when he was barely able to walk and speak. Moscow years: 1929–1959 Ilya was born in 1929 in Moscow, Soviet Union. Both his father, Iosif Grigor'evich, and mother, Sofia Arkadievna, were from traditional Jewish families ...

American Journal Of Mathematics
The ''American Journal of Mathematics'' is a bimonthly mathematics journal published by the Johns Hopkins University Press. History The ''American Journal of Mathematics'' is the oldest continuously published mathematical journal in the United States, established in 1878 at the Johns Hopkins University by James Joseph Sylvester, an English-born mathematician who also served as the journal's editor-in-chief from its inception through early 1884.

Then with volume 16 it was "Edited by Thomas Craig with the Co-operation of Simon Newcomb" until 1898. Other notable mathematicians who have served as editors or editorial associates of the journal include Frank Morley, Oscar Zariski, Lars Ahlfors, Hermann Weyl, Wei-Liang Chow, S. S. Chern, André Weil, Harish-Chandra, Jean Dieudonné, Henri Cartan, Stephen S ...

Quaternion Algebras
In mathematics, a quaternion algebra over a field (mathematics), field ''F'' is a central simple algebra ''A'' over ''F''See Milies & Sehgal, An introduction to group rings, exercise 17, chapter 2. that has dimension (vector space), dimension 4 over ''F''. Every quaternion algebra becomes a matrix algebra by ''Scalar extension, extending scalars'' (equivalently, tensor product of algebras, tensoring with a field extension), i.e. for a suitable field extension ''K'' of ''F'', A \otimes_F K is isomorphic to the 2 × 2 matrix algebra over ''K''. The notion of a quaternion algebra can be seen as a generalization of Hamilton's quaternions to an arbitrary base field. The Hamilton quaternions are a quaternion algebra (in the above sense) over F = \mathbb, and indeed the only one over \mathbb apart from the 2 × 2 real number, real matrix algebra, up to isomorphism. When F = \mathbb, then the biquaternions form the quaternion algebra over ''F''. Structure ''Quat ...
