Anthony W. Knapp
Anthony William Knapp (born 2 December 1941, Morristown, New Jersey)[1] is an American mathematician and professor emeritus at the State University of New York, Stony Brook working in representation theory.
Education[edit]
Knapp received his Ph.D. in 1965 from Princeton University under the supervision of Salomon Bochner.[2]
Research[edit]
In a series of papers from 1976 to 1984, Knapp and Gregg Zuckerman gave the classification of tempered representations of semisimple Lie groups.[3][4][5][6]
Awards and honors[edit]
He won the Leroy P. Steele Prize for Mathematical Exposition in 1997.[7] In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[8]
