Why Is José Adem Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, José Adem was a Mexican mathematician who worked in algebraic topology, and proved the Adem relations between Steenrod squares. Life and education Born José Adem Chahín in Tuxpan, Veracruz, , Adem showed an interest in mathematics from an early age, and moved to Mexico City in 1941 to pursue a degree in engineering and mathematics. He obtained his B.S. in mathematics from the National Autonomous University of Mexico in 1949. During this time met Solomon Lefschetz, a famous algebraic topologist who was spending prolonged periods of time in Mexico. Lefschetz recognized Adem's mathematical talent, and sent him as a doctoral student to Princeton University where he graduated in 1952. His dissertation, Iterations of the squaring operations in algebraic topology, was written under the supervision of Norman Steenrod and introduced what are now called the Adem relations.
