James Gilbert Glimm (born 24 March 1934) is an American mathematician, former president of the American Mathematical Society, and distinguished professor at Stony Brook University. He has made many contributions in the areas of pure and applied mathematics.

Life and career

James Glimm was born in Peoria, Illinois, United States on 24 March 1934.[1] He received his BA in engineering from Columbia University in 1956. He continued on to graduate school at Columbia where he received his Ph.D. in mathematics in 1959; his advisor was Richard V. Kadison.[2] Glimm had significant stints at New York University, and at Rockefeller University, before arriving at Stony Brook University in 1989.[1]

He has been noted for contributions to C*-algebras, quantum field theory, partial differential equations, fluid dynamics, scientific computing, and the modeling of petroleum reservoirs. Together with Arthur Jaffe, he has founded a subject called constructive quantum field theory. His early work in the theory of operator algebras was seminal, and today the "Glimm algebras" that bear his name continue to play an important role in this area of research.[3] More recently, the United States Department of Energy adopted Glimm's front-track methodology for shock-wave calculations, e.g., simulating weapons performance.[4]

글림은 1984년에 국립과학아카데미에 선출되었다. 그는 1970년[5] 니스에서 ICM의 초대 의장, 1974년 밴쿠버에서 ICM의 전체 의장이었다.[6] 1993년, 글림은 레로이 P상을 받았다. 스틸 편미분방정식의 쌍곡선 시스템을 해결하는 데 기여한 공로로 수여되었다.[7] 그는 2002년 "수학적 분석과 수학적 물리학의 다양한 분야에 대한 독창적인 접근과 창조적 공헌"으로 국가 과학 훈장을 받았다.[8] 2007년 1월 1일부터 미국수학협회 회장으로 2년 임기의 임기를 마쳤다. 2012년에 그는 미국수학협회의 회원이 되었다.[9]
