Yvette Kosmann-Schwarzbach (born 30 April 1941) ^[1] is a French mathematician and professor.

Education and career

Kosmann-Schwarzbach obtained her doctoral degree in 1970 at the University of Paris under supervision of André Lichnerowicz on a dissertation titled Dérivées de Lie des spineurs ( Lie derivatives of spinors). ^[2]

She worked at Lille University of Science and Technology, and since 1993 at the École polytechnique.

Research

Kosmann-Schwarzbach is the author of over fifty articles on differential geometry, algebra and mathematical physics, of two books on Lie groups and on the Noether theorem, as well as the co-editor of several books concerning the theory of integrable systems. The Kosmann lift in differential geometry is named after her. ^{[3] [4]}
