David Alexander Vogan, Jr. (born September 8, 1954) is a mathematician at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who works on unitary representations of simple Lie groups.
He received his Ph.D. from M.I.T. in 1976, under the supervision of Bertram Kostant.[1] He is one of the participants in the Atlas of Lie Groups and Representations.
Vogan was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1996. [2] In 2012 he became Fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[3] He was president of the AMS in 2013–2014.[4] He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2013. [5]
