Canadian-American mathematician
Ravi D. Vakil (born February 22, 1970) is a Canadian-American mathematician working in algebraic geometry .
Education and career [ edit ]
Vakil attended high school at Martingrove Collegiate Institute in Etobicoke , Ontario, where he won several mathematical contests and olympiads.[2] After earning a BSc and MSc from the University of Toronto in 1992, he completed a PhD in mathematics at Harvard University in 1997 under Joe Harris .[3] He has since been an instructor at both Princeton University and MIT . Since the fall of 2001, he has taught at Stanford University ,[4] becoming a full professor in 2007.
Contributions [ edit ]
Vakil is an algebraic geometer and his research work spans over enumerative geometry , topology , Gromov–Witten theory , and classical algebraic geometry. He has solved several old problems in Schubert calculus . Among other results, he proved that all Schubert problems are enumerative[5] over the real numbers , a result that resolves an issue mathematicians have worked on for at least two decades.
Awards and honors [ edit ]
Vakil has received many awards, including an NSF CAREER Fellowship, a Sloan Research Fellowship, an American Mathematical Society Centennial Fellowship, a G. de B. Robinson prize for the best paper published (2000) in the Canadian Journal of Mathematics and the Canadian Mathematical Bulletin ,[6] and the André-Aisenstadt Prize from the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques at the Université de Montréal (2005), and the Chauvenet Prize [1] (2014)..
In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society .[7]
Mathematics contests [ edit ]
He was a member of the Canadian team in three International Mathematical Olympiads , winning silver, gold (perfect score), and gold in 1986, 1987, and 1988 respectively. He was also the fourth person to be a four-time Putnam Fellow in the history of the contest. Also, he has been the coordinator of weekly Putnam preparation seminars at Stanford.[8]
