Gianni Dal Maso belongs to the mathematical record as a figure whose results outlasted the problems that prompted them.
The record lists Gianni Dal Maso as Italian mathematician (1954-).
Gianni Dal Maso was born at Vicenza in 1954. His recorded nationality is Italy. He studied at University of Pisa.
Twentieth-century mathematics became abstract and highly specialised, and its methods reached into physics, economics and computing.
His academic posts were held at International School for Advanced Studies.
Mathematics is the one discipline whose results, once proved, are never overturned.
Recognition followed: Caccioppoli Prize (1990), Amerio Prize (2005) and Mathematical Prize of the Italian Academy of Sciences (1996).
That the work was done from Italy matters: mathematical training, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Gianni Dal Maso is still working, and the final assessment of the contribution has not been made.
