Victor Hugo Moll (born 1956) is a Chilean American mathematician specializing in calculus.
Moll studied at the Universidad Santa Maria and at the New York University with a master's degree in 1982 and a doctorate in 1984 with Henry P. McKean (Stability in the Large for Solitary Wave Solutions to McKean's Nerve Conduction Caricature). [1] He was a post-doctoral student at Temple University and became an assistant professor in 1986 and an associate professor in 1992 and in 2001 Professor at Tulane University.
In 1990–1991, he was a visiting professor at the University of Utah, in 1999 at the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María in Valparaíso, and in 1995 a visiting scientist at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences of New York University.
He deals with classical analysis, symbolic arithmetic and experimental mathematics, special functions and number theory.
Inspired by a 1988 paper in which Ilan Vardi proved several integrals in Table of Integrals, Series, and Products, [2] a well-known comprehensive table of integrals originally compiled by the Russian mathematicians Iosif Moiseevich Ryzhik (Russian: Иосиф Моисеевич Рыжик) and Izrail Solomonovich Gradshteyn (Израиль Соломонович Градштейн) in 1943 and subsequently expanded and translated into several languages, Victor Moll and George Boros started a project to prove all integrals listed in Gradshteyn and Ryzhik and add additional commentary and references. [3] In the foreword of the book Irresistible Integrals (2004), they wrote: [4]
It took a short time to realize that this task was monumental.
Nevertheless, the efforts have resulted in about 900 entries from Gradshteyn and Ryzhik discussed in a series of more than 30 articles of which papers 1 to 28 have been published in issues 14 to 26 of Scientia, Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María (UTFSM), between 2007 and 2015 [5] and compiled into a two-volume book series Special Integrals of Gradshteyn and Ryzhik: the Proofs (2014–2015). [6] [7] Moll also assisted Daniel Zwillinger editing the eight English edition of Gradshteyn and Ryzhik in 2014. [8]
Moll also took on the task to revise and expand the classical landmark work " A Course of Modern Analysis" by Whittaker and Watson, which was originally published in 1902 and last revised in 1927, to publish a new edition in 2021.
