From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Igor Rodnianski (born April 28, 1972, Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union) is an American mathematician at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He works in partial differential equations, mathematical physics, and general relativity.

Career

Igor Rodnianski becomes instructor at Princeton in 1999. He promotes to associate professor before 2004. In 2005, Dr. Rodnianski resolved historical-Einstein Vacuum Equation with S. Klainerman. And at same time, He writes some theory in his note about Einstein-Metrics with S. Klainerman. And He become full professor in Princeton in 2005. Now that, MIT's Prof. Rodnianski specializes in hyperbolic partial differential equations related to fundamental problems of mathematics. His mathematics has a lot of basis of geometry, analysis, mathematical physics. In 2002 he received the Long-Term Prize fellowship of the Clay Mathematics Institute, and in 2010 the Distinguished Alumnus Award from Kansas State University.^[1] He received the 2011 Fermat Prize for Mathematical Research, "for fundamental contributions to the study of equations of general relativity and the propagation of light in curved space-times (with M. Dafermos, S. Klainerman, H. Lindblad)."^[2]
