Sylvain Edward Cappell (born 1946), a
He was born in Brussels, Belgium and immigrated with his parents to New York City in 1950 and grew up largely in this city.
More recently, they combined their understanding of singularities, first to lattice point counting in polytopes, then to Euler-Maclaurin type summation formulae,[7] and most recently to counting lattice points in the circle.[8] This last problem is a classical one, initiated by Gauss, and the paper is still being vetted by experts.[citation needed]
In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[9] Cappell was elected and served as a vice president of the AMS for the term of February 2010 through January 2013.[10][11] In 2018 he was elected to be a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.[12]
