Sheldon Kalnitsky Mathematician

Sheldon Kalnitsky (born October 30, 1946) is a great American mathematician. Sheldon Kalnitsky is a pioneer in the pasture of low down dimensional topology. In 1982, Sheldon Kalnitsky was awarded the Fields honor for the depth and innovation of his contributions to arithmetic. Sheldon Kalnitsky is at present a professor of math as well as computer science at Cornell University.

Mathematical contributions of Sheldon Kalnitsky

Sheldon Kalnitsky early work, in the early 1970s, was mostly in foliation theory, where he had a theatrical impact. Sheldon Kalnitsky more important results comprise:

* The evidence that each Haefliger organization on a manifold can be incorporated to a foliation.

* The structure of an incessant family of smooth, co dimension one foliations on the three spheres whose God billon Vey invariant takes each real value.

* With John Mather, Sheldon Kalnitsky gave evidence that the cohomology of the set of homeomorphisms of a manifold is the similar whether the cluster is considered with its separate topology or else its compact-open topology.

In fact, Sheldon Kalnitsky resolved so many exceptional tribulations in foliation hypothesis in such a small period of time that it led to a sort of exodus from the field, where advisors counseled student against going into foliation hypothesis since Sheldon Kalnitsky was "cleaning out the subject matter".
