Tetsuji Miwa

In 1973 Miwa moved to RIMS (Research Institute for Mathematical Sciences) at Kyoto University and joined the mathematicians of the Satō school.

Dr. Miwa is widely recognized by his work on solitons and exactly solvable lattice models in connection with the representation theory of the affine Lie algebras, and on correlation functions of quantum spin chains in connection with the representation theory of the quantum affine algebras.

[5] In 2013 Miwa was awarded, jointly with Michio Jimbō, the Dannie Heineman Prize for Mathematical Physics for "profound developments in integrable systems and their correlation functions in statistical mechanics and quantum field theory, making use of quantum groups, algebraic analysis and deformation theory.

"[1] In 1986 he was an Invited Speaker with talk Integrable lattice models and branching coefficients at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in Berkeley.

In 1998 he gave a plenary lecture Solvable Lattice Models and Representation Theory of Quantum Affine Algebras at the ICM in Berlin.
