Mizan Rahman : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mizan Rahman
Mizan Rahman (September 16, 1932 – January 5, 2015) was a Bangladeshi Canadian mathematician and writer. He specialized in fields of mathematics such as hypergeometric series and orthogonal polynomials. He also had interests encompassing literature, philosophy, scientific skepticism, freethinking and rationalism. He co-authored ''Basic Hypergeometric Series''〔George Gasper and Mizan Rahman, ''Basic Hypergeometric Series'', first edition, 1990; second extended edition, 2004, (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Its Applications, 96, Cambridge University Press ). ISBN 978-0-521-83357-8.〕 with George Gasper. This book is widely considered as the standard work of choice for that subject of study.〔(MR1052153 ): 797 citations of first edition; (MR2128719 ): 469 citations of second edition (August 25, 2015).〕 He also published ten Bengali books. ==Education and career== Rahman was born and grew up in East Bengal, British India (nowadays Bangladesh). He studied at the University of Dhaka, where he obtained his B.Sc degree in Mathematics and Physics in 1953, and his M.Sc in Applied Mathematics in 1954. He received a B.A in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge in 1958, and an M.A. in mathematics from the same university in 1963. He was a senior lecturer at the University of Dhaka from 1958 until 1962. Rahman went to the University of New Brunswick of Canada in 1962 and received his Ph.D in 1965 with a thesis on the kinetic theory of plasma using singular integral equation techniques. After his Ph.D, he became an assistant professor, later a full professor, at Carleton University, where he spent the rest of his career, after his retirement as a Distinguished Professor Emeritus.〔R. Askey, M.E.H. Ismail and E. Koelink, ''Mizan Rahman, His Mathematics And Literary Writings'', (pp. 1–28 in ''Theory and Applications of Special Functions'' ), Dev. Math. 13, Springer-Verlag, 2005.〕 He unexpectedly died in Ottawa on January 5, 2015 at the age of 82.
