About François Golse

  • François Golse (born 10 September 1962 in Talence) is a French mathematician. Golse was awarded a doctorate in 1986 at the Paris XIII University with thesis advisor Claude Bardos and thesis Contributions à l'étude des équations du transfert radiatif.
  • In 1987 he became a scientist of CNRS at the École normale supérieure.
  • In 1993 he became a professor at Pierre and Marie Curie University (Paris VI).
  • He has been a professor at the École Polytechnique since 2006. Golse does research on partial differential equations.
  • With Laure Saint-Raymond in 2004 he showed a connection of the weak solutions of the Boltzmann equation with the Leray solutions of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.
  • For these mathematically rigorous results on the hydrodynamic limit of the Boltzmann equation of gas dynamics he received the SIAG-APDE Prize of SIAM (for the best work on partial differential equations) with Saint-Raymond in 2006.
  • He also deals with other equations of mathematical physics, including distribution of free path lengths in the Lorentz gas, hydrodynamic limits of other kinetic equations, and time-dependent Hartree–Fock method. In 2004 he gave a plenary lecture Hydrodynamic limits at the European Congress of Mathematicians.
  • In 2006 he was an Invited Speaker with talk The periodic Lorentz gas in the Boltzmann-Grad limit at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid.He is a member of the Institut Universitaire de France.
  • He received the Louis Armand Prize of the French Academy of Sciences and the Claude Antoine Peccot Prize of the Collège de France.
