Martin Schechter (mathematician)
Martin Schechter (1930, Philadelphia – June 7, 2021) was an American mathematician whose work concerned mathematical analysis (specially partial differential equations and functional analysis and their applications to mathematical physics). He was a professor at the University of California, Irvine. Schechter did his undergraduate studies at the City University of New York.. He obtained his Ph.D. in 1957 from New York University (NYU) with Louis Nirenberg and Lipman Bers as thesis advisors; his dissertation was entitled ''On estimating partial differential operator in the L2-norm''. He taught at NYU from 1957 to 1966, and at Yeshiva University from 1966 to 1983, before moving to UC Irvine. He is the author of several books, including the textbook ''Principles of Functional Analysis'' (Academic Press, 1971; 2nd ed., American Mathematical Society, AMS, 2002).Review of ''Principles of Functional Analysis'', 2nd ed., by Robert G. Bartle (2002), . Schechter was a member of the Assoc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Philadelphia
Philadelphia, often called Philly, is the largest city in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the sixth-largest city in the U.S., the second-largest city in both the Northeast megalopolis and Mid-Atlantic regions after New York City. Since 1854, the city has been coextensive with Philadelphia County, the most populous county in Pennsylvania and the urban core of the Delaware Valley, the nation's seventh-largest and one of world's largest metropolitan regions, with 6.245 million residents . The city's population at the 2020 census was 1,603,797, and over 56 million people live within of Philadelphia. Philadelphia was founded in 1682 by William Penn, an English Quaker. The city served as capital of the Pennsylvania Colony during the British colonial era and went on to play a historic and vital role as the central meeting place for the nation's founding fathers whose plans and actions in Philadelphia ultimately inspired the American Revolution and the nation's inde ...
