Ball. He is professor at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. He is a specialist of the calculus of variations and of partial differential equations. He has written several articles and books. The Chaire de la Vallée Poussin 2018 of the Université Catholique de Louvain (Belgium) is attributed to him.
