Cornelius Greither Explained

Cornelius Greither (born 1956)[1] is a German mathematician specialising in Iwasawa theory and the structure of Galois modules.[2]

Education and career

Greither completed his PhD in 1983 at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München under the supervision of Bodo Pareigis: his thesis bears the title Zum Kürzungsproblem kommutativer Algebren.[3] He habilitated in 1988 at same university, with thesis title Cyclic Galois extensions and normal bases.[3]

In 1992, Greither proved the Iwasawa main conjecture for abelian number fields in the

p=2

case.[4] [5] In 1999, together with D. R. Rapogle, K. Rubin, and A. Srivastav, he proved a converse to the Hilbert–Speiser theorem.

Greither was a full professor at the Universität der Bundeswehr München. He retired in 2022,[6] and he is now an emeritus.[7] [8]

Greither is on the editorial boards of the journals Archivum mathematicum Brno,[2] [9] New York Journal of Mathematics,[2] [10] as well as the Journal de Théorie des Nombres Bordeaux.[2] [11] Until 2014, he was an associate editor of Annales mathématiques du Québec.[2] [12]
