David Nualart
David Nualart (born 21 March 1951)[1] is a Spanish mathematician working in the field of probability theory, in particular on aspects of stochastic processes and stochastic analysis. He is retired as Black-Babcock Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at the University of Kansas.
Education and career
[edit]Nualart obtained his PhD titled "Contribución al estudio de la integral estocástica" in 1975 at the University of Barcelona under the supervision of Francesc d'Assís Sales Vallès.[2] After positions at the University of Barcelona and the Polytechnique University of Barcelona he took up a professorship at the University of Kansas and was the Black-Babcock Distinguished Professor in its Mathematics Department from 2012 to 2022.[1] He retired in 2022.[3]
He was the Chief Editor of Electronic Communications in Probability from 2006 to 2008.[1]
Recognition
[edit]He has been elected a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics in 1997. He received a Doctor Honoris Causa by the Université Blaise Pascal of Clermond-Ferrand in 1998. He received the Prize IBERDROLA de Ciencia y Tecnologia in 1999. He has been a Corresponding Member of the Real Academia de Ciencias Exactas Fisicas y Naturales of Madrid since 2003. He has been a member of the Reial Academia de Ciencies i Arts of Barcelona since 2003. He received the Research Prize of the Real Academia de Ciencias de Madrid in 1991.[1]
In March 2011 the International Conference on Malliavin Calculus and Stochastic Analysis in honor of David Nualart took place at University of Kansas. The results were published in 2013 as a festschrift, Malliavin Calculus and Stochastic Analysis: A Festschrift in Honor of David Nualart.[4]
He was named to the 2023 class of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society, "for contributions to Malliavin calculus, stochastic PDE's, and fractional Brownian motion".[5]
