about
Jürgen Kurt Moser or Juergen Kurt Moser (July 4, 1928, Königsberg, East Prussia – 17 December 1999, Zürich, Switzerland) was a German-American mathematician who worked in differential equations, spectral theory, celestial mechanics, and stability theory, with groundbreaking contributions in dynamical systems. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Göttingen in 1952, studying under Franz Rellich and Carl Siegel. He emigrated to the United States in 1953. He became a professor at MIT and later New York University, serving briefly as the director of the Courant Institute (1967–1970). After 1980 he was at ETH Zurich. He won the James Craig Watson Medal in 1969 for his contributions to dynamical astronomy and the Wolf Prize in 1995 for his work on stability in Hamiltonian systems and on nonlinear differential equations. The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics established a lecture prize in his honor in 2000.
