Albert Schwarz
For the Austrian-born American inventor, see Albert Schwarz (inventor).
Albert S. Schwarz[1] (Russian: А. С. Шварц; born June 24, 1934 in Kazan, Soviet Union) is a mathematician and a theoretical physicist educated in Soviet Union and now a Professor at the University of California-Davis. He is one of the pioneers of Morse theory and brought up the first example of a topological quantum field theory. Schwarz worked on some examples in noncommutative geometry. He is the "S" in the famous AKSZ model (named after Mikhail Alexandrov, Maxim Kontsevich, Schwarz, and Oleg Zaboronsky).
In 1990 Schwarz was an invited speaker of the International Congress of Mathematicians in Kyoto.
