Timeline

1807

It was a famous old Problem by Joseph Fourier when he invented Fourier analysis in 1807 and formalised by Nikolai Luzin in 1913 as the Lusin's conjecture.

1928

Lennart Axel Edvard Carleson (born 18 March 1928) is a Swedish mathematician, known as a leader in the field of harmonic analysis.

One of his most noted accomplishments is his proof of Lusin's conjecture.

Kolmogorov proved a famous negative result of the conjecture for L1 function in 1928 and stated that the conjecture must be false.

1950

He was a student of Arne Beurling and received his Ph.D. from Uppsala University in 1950.

He did his post-doctoral work at Harvard University where he met and discussed Fourier series and their convergence with Antoni Zygmund and Raphaël Salem who were there in 1950 and 1951.

1953

Carleson married Butte Jonsson in 1953, and they had two children: Caspar (born 1955) and Beatrice (born 1958).

He has supervised 29 PhD students.

They include Svante Janson, Kurt Johansson, Warwick Tucker, Bengt Rosén, Per Sjölin, Hans Wallin and Ingemar Wik.

His work has included the solution of some outstanding problems, using techniques from combinatorics and probability theory (especially stopping times).

1962

In the theory of Hardy spaces, Carleson's contributions include the corona theorem (1962), and establishing the almost everywhere convergence of Fourier series for square-integrable functions (now known as Carleson's theorem).

1966

It was so until 38 years later when Carleson gave his proof at the International Congress of Mathematicians at Moscow in 1966.

But his proofs were very hard and only understood in the late 80s and early 90s when a general theory of operators arrived and brought mathematicians closer to using his striking ideas with ease.

He is also known for the theory of Carleson measures.

His tools and methods have been of fundamental importance to analysis as well as many areas of mathematics.

The theorem for Fourier multipliers developed by Carleson and Per Sjölin has been standard in the study of the Kakeya Problem.

1967

In addition to publishing some landmark papers, Carleson has also published two books: First, an influential book on potential theory, Selected Problems on Exceptional Sets (Van Nostrand, 1967), and second a book on the iteration of analytic functions, Complex Dynamics (Springer, 1993, in collaboration with T. W. Gamelin).

1968

He is a professor emeritus at Uppsala University, the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, and the University of California, Los Angeles, and has served as director of the Mittag-Leffler Institute in Djursholm outside Stockholm 1968–1984.

1974

In 1974 he solved the extension Problem for quasiconformal mappings, and gave important new results in the Bochner–Riesz mean in dimension two.

In the theory of dynamical systems, Carleson has worked in complex dynamics.

1978

Between 1978 and 1982 he served as president of the International Mathematical Union.

1989

He was the co-editor along with Paul Malliavin, J. Neuberger and J. Wermer who collected and published the unpublished works of his mentor Arne Beurling in 1989.

1991

His proof with Michael Benedicks of the existence of strange attractors in the Hénon map in 1991 led to a new field in dynamical systems.

1992

He was awarded the Wolf Prize in Mathematics in 1992, the Lomonosov Gold Medal in 2002, the Sylvester Medal in 2003, and the Abel Prize in 2006 for his profound and seminal contributions to harmonic analysis and the theory of smooth dynamical systems.

He is a member of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.

1993

He became a Foreign Fellow of the Royal Society in 1993, Honorary member of the London Mathematical Society in 1981, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, French Academy of Sciences, Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, Finnish Society of Sciences and Letters, Finnish Academy of Science and Letters, Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.

He has honorary doctorates from many universities such as Helsinki, Paris and KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm.

2006

He was awarded the Abel Prize in 2006 for "his profound and seminal contributions to harmonic analysis and the theory of smooth dynamical systems."

2012

In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.
