Jean Giraud (mathematician)
Jean Giraud (; 2 February 1936 – 27 or 28 March 2007) , Philippe Gillet, ''ENS Info'' 70, April 2007. was a French mathematician, a student of Alexander Grothendieck. His research focused on non-abelian cohomology and the theory of . In particular, he authored the book ''Cohomologie non-abélienne'' (Springer, 1971) and proved the theorem that bears his name, which gives a characterization of a Grothendieck topos. From 1969 to 1989, he was a professor at École normale supérieure de S ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Topos
In mathematics, a topos (, ; plural topoi or , or toposes) is a category that behaves like the category of sheaves of sets on a topological space (or more generally: on a site). Topoi behave much like the category of sets and possess a notion of localization; they are a direct generalization of point-set topology. The Grothendieck topoi find applications in algebraic geometry; the more general elementary topoi are used in logic. The mathematical field that studies topoi is called topos theory. Grothendieck topos (topos in geometry) Since the introduction of sheaves into mathematics in the 1940s, a major theme has been to study a space by studying sheaves on a space. This idea was expounded by Alexander Grothendieck by introducing the notion of a "topos". The main utility of this notion is in the abundance of situations in mathematics where topological heuristics are very effective, but an honest topological space is lacking; it is sometimes possible to find a topos formal ...

École Normale Supérieure De Lyon
The École normale supérieure de Lyon (also known as ENS de Lyon, ENSL or Normale Sup' Lyon) is a French grande école located in the city of Lyon. It is one of the four prestigious écoles normales supérieures in France. The school is composed of two academic units— Arts and Sciences— with campuses in Lyon, near the confluence of the Rhône and Saône rivers. ENSL's students usually enjoy a special civil servant status in the wake of highly competitive exams, providing they pursue careers in public service. Although it maintains extensive connections with the University of Lyon and external research institutions, including the CNRS, the school remains independent. History Training teachers for normal schools ''L'École normale supérieure de Lyon'' is the descendant of two top educational institutions founded by Jules Ferry: *''L'École normale supérieure de Fontenay-aux-Roses'', for girls, founded in 1880. *''L'École normale supérieure de Saint-Cloud'', for ...

University Of Paris Alumni
A university () is an institution of higher (or tertiary) education and research which awards academic degrees in several academic disciplines. Universities typically offer both undergraduate and postgraduate programs. In the United States, the designation is reserved for colleges that have a graduate school. The word ''university'' is derived from the Latin ''universitas magistrorum et scholarium'', which roughly means "community of teachers and scholars". The first universities were created in Europe by Catholic Church monks. The University of Bologna (''Università di Bologna''), founded in 1088, is the first university in the sense of: *Being a high degree-awarding institute. *Having independence from the ecclesiastic schools, although conducted by both clergy and non-clergy. *Using the word ''universitas'' (which was coined at its foundation). *Issuing secular and non-secular degrees: grammar, rhetoric, logic, theology, canon law, notarial law.Hunt Janin: "The universit ...
