 Jacques-Louis Lions
Under the influence of Jean Leray, whose seminar at the Collège de France he had begun to attend, Lions became interested in nonlinear PDEs, in particular the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.
He was involved in the development of the theory of nonlinear equations that are monotone in their highest arguments, a theory based on an idea of George Minty and Felix Browder.
His only work with Jean Leray, published in 1965, was one of the most general results in the theory of monotone operators, extending and considerably simplifying an earlier result of Mark Vishik.

The result was the famous memoir [7] for which Schauder and Leray obtained the grand international Metaxas prize for mathematics in 1938.
Two other famous contributions were: The "Schauder fixed point principle" [8] (which he proved before he came to our school), and the "Schauder method in the boundary problems for partial differential equations" (this was done while he was a teacher in our school).
Leray also visited us the same year; he was a charming Frenchman of unusual elegance and culture.

Jean Leray is one of the great French mathematicians of this century.
2, with an introduction by P. Lax, covers fluid mechanics and PDE: Leray demonstrated the existence of the infinite-time extension of weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations; 60 years later this profound work has retained all its impact.
Leray's work on the ramified Cauchy problem will stand for centuries alongside the Cauchy-Kovalevska theorem for the unramified case.

 American Mathematical Society meeting 09/99
Prominent mathematicians also will discuss the remarkably diverse works of the French mathematician Jean Leray, who made fundamental contributions to the mathematical description of fluid motion some 60 years ago that have not been substantially surpassed.
When the Nazis invaded France, Leray switched from studies that might have been applied in warfare to algebraic geometry and topology (the mathematical discipline that describes knotting and tangling and that is finding increasing applications, for example, in biology).
Leray's work aided the development of number theory and string theory in physics.

The founding members were all connected to the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris and included André Weil, Jean Dieudonné, Szolem Mandelbrojt, Claude Chevalley, Henri Cartan; and several other young French mathematicians.
There was a preliminary meeting, the minutes are in the Bourbaki archives [for a full description of the initial meeting consult Liliane Beaulieu in the Mathematical Intelligencer]; besides those already mentioned, René de Possel, Jean Delsarte, Jean Leray and Paul Dubreil were there, but Leray and Dubreil dropped out before the group actually formed.
Public discussion of, and justification for, Bourbaki's thoughts has in general been through Jean Dieudonné, who initially was the 'scribe' of the group, writing under his own name.

Leray proved existence of a weak solution defined globally in time.

Then Jean Piot humorously reassured the minister who believed that Mlle Jacotin "would have the traditional initiations and would stay quite innocent".
Born in Paris in 1905, Marie-Louise was one of the first French women mathematicians to gain the professional qualifications and status that used to be reserved for men only.
She matriculated at the École Normale Superieure in 1926 (the same class as J. Leray and C. Chevalley).

Abstract: We study the third Cauchy-Fantappie formula, an integral representation formula for holomorphic functions on a domain in a#ne space, presented by Jean Leray in the third paper of his famous series Probleme de Cauchy, published in 1959.
We show by means of examples that this formula does not hold without some additional conditions, left unmentioned by Leray.
We give su#cient conditions and a necessary condition for the formula to hold, and, in the case of a contractible domain, characterize...
