Marie-Paule Malliavin, née Brameret, (1935 in Mahdia – 25 September 2019 in Paris) [1] was a French mathematician who specialised in the field of algebra. [2]
She was married to the mathematician Paul Malliavin since 27 April 1965. They had two children (Thérèse and Marie-Joseph). [3]
She published her first mathematical article in 1960 [4] and received her doctorate in 1965. [5]
After her doctorate, she first became maître de conférences at the University of Caen. [6] Later she became a professor at the Pierre and Marie Curie University (UPMC, Paris 6) in Paris, where she remained until her retirement. [5] [6]
Her mathematical students include Jacques Alev and Youssef El From. [7] She wrote several textbooks; the books on commutative algebra and representation theory of finite groups are frequently cited. [6]
At the beginning of her career, she worked on commutative algebra, later on non-commutative algebra. This was at a time when enveloping algebras and then quantum groups were evolving. She collaborated with her husband Paul Malliavin in particular in the study of measures on infinite-dimensional groups. [6] [8]
Marie-Paule Malliavin was editor of top-ranked international research journals. [6] She also organised the Algebra Seminar at the Institut Henri Poincaré for several decades, succeeding the deceased Professor Paul Dubreil. [6]
