David B. Fairlie (born in South Queensferry, Scotland, 1935) is a British mathematician and theoretical physicists, Professor Emeritus at the University of Durham (UK).〔( Prof Fairlie's University of Durham web-page )〕 He was educated in mathematical physics at the University of Edinburgh (B.Sc. 1957), and he earned a Ph.D. at the University of Cambridge in 1960, under the supervision of John Polkinghorne. After postdoctoral training at Princeton University and Cambridge, he was lecturer in St. Andrews (1962–64) and at Durham University (1964), retiring as Professor (2000). He has made numerous influential contributions〔Prof Fairlie's physics publications are available on the INSPIRE Database () and the GoogleCite database ().〕 in particle and mathematical physics, notably in the early formulation of string theory,〔; 〕 as well as the determination of the weak mixing angle in extra dimensions, infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, classical solutions of gauge theories, higher-dimensional gauge theories, and deformation quantization. He has co-authored several volumes, notably〔Cosmas K. Zachos, David B. Fairlie, and Thomas L. Curtright, ''Quantum Mechanics in Phase Space'', (World Scientific, Singapore, 2005) ISBN 978-981-238-384-6 ().〕〔Thomas L Curtright, David B Fairlie, Cosmas K Zachos, ''A Concise Treatise on Quantum Mechanics in Phase Space'', (World Scientific, Singapore, 2014) ISBN 9789814520430〕 on quantum mechanics in phase space. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Fairlie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
