French-American mathematician (1937–2022)
Roland Glowinski (9 March 1937 – 26 January 2022) was a French-American mathematician. He obtained his PhD in 1970 from Jacques-Louis Lions [ 2] applied mathematics , in particular numerical solution and applications of partial differential equations and variational inequalities . He was a member of the French Academy of Sciences and held an endowed chair at the University of Houston from 1985. Glowinski wrote many books on the subject of mathematics. In 2012, he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society .[ 3]
