Laurent Lafforgue (French:; born 6 November 1966) is a French mathematician. He has made outstanding contributions to Langlands' program in the fields of number theory and analysis , [1] and in particular proved the Langlands conjectures for the automorphism group of a function field.

One of the biggest losses in the History of Mathematics: In 1970, at age 42, Grothendieck resigned from IHES. Paris XI University (in Orsay). In 1984, he stopped teaching and eventually got a CNRS position. In 1988, at age 60, he officially retired. He died in 2014, at age 86, after 25 years in isolation.
A basic principle of “deep learning”. Warning: I know very little on this subject. Much of what I know comes from a lecture course by Prof. H. B ̈olskei at the Lagrange Center, Paris, in June 2022. “Deep learning” is based on a simple idea in functional analysis: replace classical “approximation by superposition” by ...
Laurent Lafforgue has made an enormous advance in the Langlands Program by proving the global Langlands correspondence for function fields. The Langlands Program, formulated by Robert Langlands in the 1960 s, proposes a web of relationships connecting Galois representations and automorphic forms.
Sep 1, 2021 · Permanent professor from 2000 to 2021. Laurent Lafforgue became a mathematician mainly through the study of the new algebraic functorial geometry that Alexander Grothendieck created at the end of the 1950s and that he developed at IHES with his collaborators and students.
Dec 1, 2002 · The work of Laurent Lafforgue. Laurent Lafforgue has been awarded the Fields Medal for his proof of the Langlands correspondence for the full linear groups GLr ( r ≥ 1) over function fields. This article is a brief introduction to the Langlands correspondence and to Lafforgue's theorem.
Laurent Lafforgue (born November 6, 1966, Antony, France) is a French mathematician who won the Fields Medal in 2002 for his work connecting number theory and analysis. Lafforgue attended the École Normale Supérieure (1986–90) in Paris before receiving a Ph.D. in algebraic geometry from the University of Paris in 1994.
