In the history of mathematics, Yannis Panaretos is one of the names that keeps returning.
The record lists Yannis Panaretos as Greek statistician.
Yannis Panaretos was born at Kythira in 1948. His recorded nationality is Greece. He studied at University of Sheffield and National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
Twentieth-century mathematics became abstract and highly specialised, and its methods reached into physics, economics and computing.
His academic posts were held at University of Missouri, University of Patras and University of Crete.
Mathematical work is judged by whether anyone can build on it, and that judgement takes decades.
That the work was done from Greece matters: mathematical training, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
