Louis Auslander
Louis Auslander (July 12, 1928 – February 25, 1997) was a Jewish American mathematician. He had wide-ranging interests both in pure and applied mathematics and worked on Finsler geometry, geometry of solvmanifolds and nilmanifolds, locally affine spaces, many aspects of harmonic analysis, representation theory of solvable Lie groups, and multidimensional Fourier transforms and the design of signal sets for communications and radar. He is the author of more than one hundred papers and ten books.
Auslander received his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1955 under Shiing-Shen Chern. He was a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study in 1955-57 and again in 1971-72. After holding a variety of faculty positions at US universities, in 1965 Auslander joined the faculty at Graduate Center of the City University of New York and since 1971 he had been a Distinguished Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science there.
Louis Auslander was married twice, first for over 25 years to Elinor Newstadt Auslander, with whom he had three children (Nathan, Rose, and Daniel), and later to Fernande Couturier Auslander. His brother Maurice Auslander was also a mathematician.
