}}Robert V. Kohn (born in 1953) is an American mathematician working on partial differential equations, calculus of variations, mathematical materials science, and mathematical finance. He is a professor at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University.[1]

Biography

Kohn studied mathematics at Harvard University, obtaining his bachelor's degree in 1974. He obtained his Ph.D. at Princeton University in 1979, as a student of Frederick Almgren.[2][3]

Work

Kohn is best known for his works on non-linear partial differential equations, specially the ones with Louis Nirenberg and Luis Caffarelli, where they obtained partial results about the regularity of weak solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations.[4]

Honors

He received a Sloan Research Fellowship in 1984.[5] In 2006, he was a plenary speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians, in Madrid (Energy driven pattern formation).[6] He is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[7]
