Paolo Emilio Ricci ((1944-02-04)4 February 1944) is an Italian mathematician, working on mathematical physics, orthogonal polynomials, special functions, numerical analysis, approximation theory and other related subjects mathematical analysis, theory of elliptic partial differential equations and special functions: he is also known for his work collaboration with Johan Gielis.

Education and academic career

Paolo Emilio Ricci received his Laurea degree (cum laude) on 7 July 1967, at the Sapienza University of Rome:[5] his thesis supervisor was Gaetano Fichera.[6]

From November 1st, 1980 to October 31, 1981 he worked as a ordinary professor of numerical at the University of Catania.[5]

He has also been director of the Rendiconti di Matematica in 1983 and for three years from 1984 to 1986 and then for six years, from 1987 to 1989 and from 1990 to 1992, jointly with Pietro Benvenuti.[7]

Honors

On 10 September 2003, he was awarded Doctor Honoris Causa by the I. Vekua Institute of Applied Mathematics of the Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University.[1]

In 2015, during the workshop "Modeling in Mathematics",[8] for his contributions to geometry and mathematics, he was awarded the second Simon Stevin Prize for Geometry.[2]

In 2017, he received the "Life-long achievement award of Vijnana Parishad" of India,[3] followed in 2022 by "Golden Jubilee Award of Vijnana Parishad of India".[4] on the occasion of the 5th International Conference on Recent Advances in Mathematical Sciences with Applications in Engineering and Technology.[9]

On 23–24 May 2024, a conference in honor of Paolo Emilio Ricci on his 80th Birthday was held in Rome at the Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo "Mauro Picone" IAC - CNR.[10]
