Mario Pulvirenti is an Italian mathematician, Professor emeritus of Mathematical Physics at Sapienza University of Rome.[1]
Biography
[edit]Mario Pulvirenti received a master's degree in physics from the Sapienza University in 1970, where he is Professor emeritus of Mathematical Physics.[2] He also worked at University of L'Aquila and University of Camerino. He spent research periods at École Normale Supérieure, Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques and Rutgers University. He is currently member of Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica and of Accademia dei Lincei, one of the highest Italian academic institutions.[3]
In 2006 has been invited speaker at International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid. In the same year he won the Tartufari prize form Accademia dei Lincei.
He is one of the major experts in mathematical aspects of kinetic theory,[4] and among his research topics are also fluid dynamics and statistical mechanics. In particular, he obtained (together with Reinhard Illner) the only rigorous global derivation in time of the Boltzmann equation from particle dynamics known up to now.[4] He is also interested in clarifying some particular aspects of history of mechanics.
