Alex Grossmann

Alexander Grossmann (5 August 1930 – 12 February 2019) was a French-American physicist of Croatian origin at the Université de la Méditerranée Aix-Marseille II in Luminy campus who did pioneering work on wavelet analysis with Jean Morlet in 1984[1]. In effet, Grossmann and Morlet rediscovered Alberto Calderón's identity (1960) 20 years later, providing a proof using the tools of quantum mechanics. This in effect showed this identity's applicability to signal analysis[2].

He died on 12 February 2019.[3]
