Ichirō Satake (佐武 一郎, Satake Ichirō) (25 December 1927 – 10 October 2014) was a Japanese mathematician working on
symmetric spaces.[1]
Satake was born in
Tokyo, Japan in 1927, and received his Ph.D. at the University of Tokyo in 1959 under the supervision of Shokichi Iyanaga. He was a professor at University of California, Berkeley from 1968 to 1983. After retirement he returned to Japan, where he spent time at Tohoku University and Chuo University. He died of respiratory failure on 10 October 2014.[2]
Although they are often attributed to
Chern-Gauss-Bonnet theorem and Shiing-Shen Chern's proof thereof.[3]
