Takashi Ono (mathematician)
Takashi Ono (小野 孝 Ono Takashi, born 18 December 1928, Nishinomiya, Japan) is a Japanese-born American mathematician, specializing in number theory and algebraic groups.
Education and career
He received his Ph.D. in 1958 at Nagoya University.[1] He immigrated to the United States after receiving an invitation from J. Robert Oppenheimer to work at the Institute for Advanced Study with a fellowship for the two academic years 1959–1961[2] and then went to the University of British Columbia to work as a mathematics professor. From 1964 to 1969 Ono was a tenured professor at the University of Pennsylvania. From 1969 to his retirement in 2011 he was a professor at Johns Hopkins University. In 1966 he was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Moscow.[2] In 2012 he was elected a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[3]
Family
Ono's youngest son is the mathematician Ken Ono.[4] His middle son Santa J. Ono is the President & Vice-Chancellor of the University of British Columbia (previously, the 28th President of the University of Cincinnati) and biomedical researcher. His eldest son is the music professor Momoro Ono.[5]
