Pierre Collet (physicist)

Pierre Collet (born 1948) is a French mathematical physicist, specializing in statistical mechanics, stochastic processes, and chaos theory.

Pierre Collet, 2016

Collet received in 1978 from the University of Geneva his doctorate under Jean-Pierre Eckmann with thesis Étude du modèle hiérarchique par le groupe de renormalisation.[1] Collet is a Director of Research of the CNRS at the École polytechnique.[2]

Collet is known for mathematically exact investigations of several model systems in statistical mechanics and chaos theory. He was an Invited Speaker of the ICM in 1998 in Berlin.[3]

He is not to be confused with the University of Strasbourg's Pierre Collet, who specializes in artificial evolution and complex systems. https://cstb.icube.unistra.fr/index.php/Pierre_Collet
