Marcelo Miranda Viana da Silva (born 4 March 1962) is a Brazilian mathematician working in dynamical systems theory.[1][2]
He was a Guggenheim Fellow in 1993.[3] In 2005 he was awarded the inaugural ICTP Ramanujan Prize for his research achievements.[2]
Viana was vice-president of the International Mathematical Union in 2011–2014, and president of the Brazilian Mathematical Society (2013–2015).[4][5]
In 1998, he was a plenary speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians, in Berlin.[6]
Viana is director elected of the IMPA (for the period 2016–2019).
Work
Viana's work concerns chaotic dynamical systems and strange attractors.[7]
