Goro Nishida
was a Japanese mathematician. He was a leading member of the Japanese school of homotopy theory, following in the tradition of Hiroshi Toda. Nishida received his Ph.D. from Kyoto University in 1973, after spending the 1971–72 academic year at the University of Manchester in England. He then became a professor at Kyoto University in 1990.

His contributions to the field were celebrated in 2003 at the NishidaFest in Kinosaki, followed by a satellite conference at the Nagoya Institute of Technology; the proceedings were published in ''Geometry and Topology'''s monograph series. In 2000 he was the leading organizer for a concentration year at the Japan–US Mathematics Institut ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
