Dijen K. Ray-Chaudhuri worked in mathematics at a period when the field's own foundations were under discussion.
The record lists Dijen K. Ray-Chaudhuri as Indian mathematician.
Dijen K. Ray-Chaudhuri was born at Narayanganj in 1933. His recorded nationality is United States. He studied at University of Calcutta and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Twentieth-century mathematics became abstract and highly specialised, and its methods reached into physics, economics and computing.
His academic posts were held at Ohio State University.
The recorded fields of work are combinatorics.
A theorem is permanent in a way no experiment can be, which raises the standard for entry.
The honours record reads: Euler Medal (1999).
That the work was done from United States matters: mathematical training, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
