Sergey Vladimirovich Fomin (Сергей Владимирович Фомин) (born 16 February 1958 in Saint Petersburg, Russia) is a Russian American mathematician who has made important contributions in combinatorics and its relations with algebra, geometry, and representation theory. Together with Andrei Zelevinsky, he introduced cluster algebras.
Biography
Fomin received his
45th Physics-Mathematics School and later taught mathematics there.[2]
Research
Fomin's contributions include
- Discovery (with A. Zelevinsky) of cluster algebras.
- Work (jointly with A. Berenstein and A. Zelevinsky) on total positivity.
- Work (with A. Zelevinsky) on the Laurent phenomenon, including its applications to Somos sequences.
Awards and honors
