Eugene Trubowitz

Eugene Trubowitz is an American mathematician who studies analysis and mathematical physics. He is a Global Professor of Mathematics at New York University Abu Dhabi.

Life and work
Trubowitz, who was born in 1951, received his doctorate in 1977 under the supervision of Henry McKean at New York University, with thesis titled The inverse problem for periodic potentials. Since 1983, he wais a full professor of mathematics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. As of 2016, he has retired from his position at ETH.

Trubowitz studies scattering theory (some with Percy Deift, and inverse scattering theory), integrable systems and their connection to algebraic geometry, mathematical theory of Fermi liquids in the statistical mechanics.

In 1994 he was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Zürich; his talk was on A rigorous (renormalization group) analysis of superconducting systems.
