Feng Kang Distinguished Lecture 2016


Yvon Maday is a professor in applied mathematics at the University Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris 6). He is also a member of 
Institut Universitaire de France (IUF), and a visiting professor at the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University. 

His contributions are in the field of applied mathematics for the mathematical analysis and the numerical analysis for partial 
differential equations where he has worked on the analysis of spectral discretizations, in particular for fluid mechanics where
he proposed different stable discretization spaces for the velocity and the pressure. He also proposed efficient techniques for
coupling different discretization in a non conforming way: this technique known as the mortar element method has been ext-
ensively used in the literature and various codes. His contributions also include the development and deployment of tools and
mathematical algorithms, including the parareal in time algorithm, reduced basis and related algorithms, modeling and analysis
for coupled problems, and a priori and a posteriori analysis. His main research in recent years focuses on the numerical meth-
ods in the domain of quantum chemistry, mathematical modeling in life science, and so on. 
He won the Prix Blaise Pascal (GAMNI-SMAI) of the French Academy of Sciences in 1991 and the Prix Jacques-Louis Lions of the French Academy of Sciences in 2009. He has been a member of the European Academy of Sciences since 2003. He was an invited speaker in International Congress of Mathematicians 2006. He has been the director of the Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions from 2001 to 2011 and since then he has been invested in the development of collaborations with industrial partners, he is now the director of a “Carnot” structure that aims at increasing at a large scale the connections between academia and industries in applied mathematics.
