Daniel B. Szyld (born 1955 in Buenos Aires) is an Argentinian and American mathematician who is a professor at Temple University in Philadelphia. He has made contributions to numerical and applied linear algebra as well as matrix theory.

Education

He was admitted without an undergraduate degree to the graduate school at New York University,[2] where he defended his PhD in 1983.[1] While there, he worked as a research assistant for Wassily Leontief.[2]

International awards and appointments

He was named as a SIAM Fellow[3] and as a fellow of the American Mathematical Society[4] in 2017. In 2020, he was elected president of the International Linear Algebra Society.[5] He was editor-in-chief for the Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis from 2005 to 2013[6] and SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications from 2015 to 2020[7] and is on the editorial boards of several journals, including the Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra (ELA),[8] the Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis (ETNA), Linear Algebra and its Applications,[9] Mathematics of Computation,[10] Numerical Linear Algebra with Applications,[11] and Journal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory.[12] A conference in honor of his 65th birthday was held in 2022[13]
