VINET, Luc - Département de physique, Université de Montréal
Luc Vinet’s work has a deep impact in our understanding of the role of symmetry in quantum mechanics, ranging from the role of supersymmetry in many basic quantum mechanical systems, to a much deeper comprehension of the structure of many important systems of special functions, simply by viewing them in terms of their algebra of symmetries. This latter work has had far ranging impact, notably in algebraic combinatorics
