Martin Andler (born 1951) is a French mathematician and historian of science..[1] He was the founding President of the Animath Association in 1998, and remained as President until 2017. He is the current President of the Initiative for Science in Europe, and is Professor Emeritus at the Versailles-Saint-Quentin University.

Personal[edit]

Martin Andler is the grandson of the Russian Menshevik leader Raphael Abramovitch, the son of Pierre Andler (editor and translator) and Lia Rein (hematologist medical doctor), and the brother of the philosopher Daniel Andler.

Education[edit]

[2].

A graduate of École normale supérieure (Paris)[3] (promotion 1970), he obtained his degrees in mathematics (licence, maîtrise, diplôme d’études approfondies) from université Paris 7 (now Université Paris-Cité), in 1971 and 1973, and the agrégation de mathématiques in 1973. He defended his doctorat d’État ès-sciences, supervised by Michel Duflo at université Paris 7 in 1983.

Academic Career[edit]

He did the first part of his career as a CNRS researcher (stagiaire, attaché, chargé de recherche) between 1974 and 1995), first at université Paris 7 and after 1986 at École normale supérieure, before joining université de Versailles-Saint-Quentin as a Professor in 1995. In 2017, he became Professor Emeritus. While on secondment from these institutions, he has had visiting positions at the Massachussetts Institute of Technology (in 1984-85 and 2001-2002), the Mathematical Science Research Institute in Berkeley (1987), Rutgers University New Brunswick (1988-1990), the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton (1998).

Research[edit]

In Mathematics, his research focuses on various aspect of Representation Theory of Lie Groups. In History of Science, he is mostly interested in late XIXth century-XXth century institutional history of mathematics. He has also published papers in Sociology of Science; Philosophy of Science as well as Science Education.

Mathematical Outreach Activities[edit]

Andler was the General Editor of the Gazette des mathématiciens[4] from 1986 to 1990, Vice-President of the Société mathématique de France[5] from 1997 to 1999, in charge of communication. He was one of the founders and the first President (1998-2017) of the Animath association[6], a national organisation promoting mathematics for students. He started the cycle of public lectures “Un texte, un mathématicien”[7] jointly organized by the Bibliothèque nationale de France[8] and Société mathématique de France.

Science and Higher Education Policies[edit]

Andler has been active on higher education and research policies in France since the early 1980s. Since 2012, he has been the coordinator of the French Think tank Terra Nova[9] on these issues. At the European level, he was from 2012 to 2018, Vice-President of Euroscience[10] and served as member or Vice-Chair of the programme committees of four Euroscience Open Forums[11]. Since 2017, he is the President of the Initiative for Science in Europe[12]
