}}
Dipendra Prasad (born 1960)[1] is an Indian mathematician. He is a professor of mathematics at the School of mathematics, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai for the past decade. Earlier, he was at
the Harish-Chandra Research Institute in Allahabad for about a decade. He is a number theorist known for his work in the areas of automorphic representations. He is well known for the Gan–Gross–Prasad conjecture.[2][3][3][4]
Two of his siblings, Gopal Prasad and Shrawan Kumar, are also mathematicians.
Education
Prasad obtained his Bachelor's degree from the St. Xavier's College, Mumbai in 1978 before moving to the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur for a Masters which he completed in 1980. He then completed his PHD under the supervision of Benedict Gross at Harvard, in 1989.
Awards
In recognition of his contributions, the Government of India awarded him the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize in mathematical sciences for 2002. Apart from that he holds JC Bose fellowship awarded by the Department of Science and Technology, New Delhi.[5]{{failed verification|date=March 2017}} He is also a recipient of the Swarna Jayanti Fellowship in 1999.[1] He was Invited Speaker on the International Congress of Mathematicians 2018 in Rio de Janeiro in Section 7 (Lie Groups and Generalizations) with the talk 'Ext-analogues of branching laws'.
