Takeshi Saito (mathematician)

Takeshi Saito (斎藤毅 Saitō Takeshi, born 9 September 1961) is a Japanese mathematician, specializing in number theory and algebraic geometry.[1]

In the Department of Mathematical Sciences of the University of Tokyo, Saito graduated with undergraduate degree in 1984, master's degree in 1986, and PhD in 1989.[2] His thesis advisor was Kazuya Kato.[3] At the University of Tokyo, Saito was an assistant from 1987 to 1990, a lecturer from 1990 to 1992, and an assistant professor from 1992 to 1999. Since 1999 he is a full professor there.[2]

Saito was a member of the editorial board of the Journal of the Institute of Mathematics of Jussieu and the editorial board of the Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux. The Mathematical Society of Japan awarded him the Algebra Prize in 1998 and the Spring Prize in 2001.[2] In 2010 he was an invited speaker of the International Congress of Mathematicians in Hyderabad.[4]

He is a fan of Akiko Yano. As a boy Saito was attracted to mathematics upon reading the book "数学入門" (Introduction to Mathematics) by Kei Toyama (1909–1979).
