  Kunihiko Kodaira - Encyclopedia Glossary Meaning Explanation Kunihiko Kodaira   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Kunihiko Kodaira (小平 邦彦) (16 March, 1915 – 26 July, 1997) was a Japanese mathematician known for distinguished work in algebraic geometry and the theory of complex manifolds; and as the founder of the Japanese school of algebraic geometers.
Kodaira rapidly became involved in exploiting the tools it opened up in algebraic geometry, adding sheaf theory as it became available.
Kodaira left the IAS in 1961, and after two positions in the USA returned to Japan in 1967; he was professor at the University of Tokyo.

Kunihiko Kodaira graduated from the University of Tokyo in 1938 with a degree in mathematics.
From 1944 until 1949, Kodaira was an associate professor at the University of Tokyo but by this time his work was well known to mathematicians world-wide and he received an invitation from Weyl to come to Princeton.
Kodaira accepted Weyl's invitation and, from 1949 until 1961, he was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton.

 Kunihiko Kodaira History Summary   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Born on March 16, 1915, in Tokyo, Kodaira was the son of Gonichi and Ichi Kanai Kodaira.
Kodaira accepted the invitation, and moved his family to the United States, where they would remain for the next 18 years.
Kodaira also investigated Köhlerian manifolds, which he sought to prove were analytic in nature, just like Riemann manifolds—i.e., that they could be solved or defined by calculus.

 Rec Fresh : Article 'Deformation theory'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
This was put on a firm basis by foundational work of Kunihiko Kodaira and D. Spencer, after deformation techniques had received a great deal of more tentative application in the Italian school of algebraic geometry.
The deformation theory of Kunihiko Kodaira and D. Spencer identifies deformations via H1(T), where T is the tangent bundle sheaf K*.
There he was involved in a major series of collaborative works with Kunihiko Kodaira on the deformation of complex structures, which had a profound influence on the theory of complex manifolds and algebraic geometry, and the conception of moduli spaces.

In the case of surfaces, the Enriques classification was into five similar big classes, with three of those being analogues of the curve cases, and two more (elliptic fibrations, and K3 surfaces, as they would now be called) being with the case of two-dimension abelian varieties in the 'middle' territory).
This was an essentially sound, breakthrough set of insights, recovered in modern complex manifold language by Kunihiko Kodaira in the 1950s, and refined to include mod p phenomena by Zariski, the Shafarevich school and others by around 1960.
The modern synthesis brought together their work, that of the Cartan school, and of W.L. Chow and Kunihiko Kodaira, with the traditional material.

Kodaira had also independently completed Hodge’s work and had gone on to apply it with great skill to prove concrete results in algebraic geometry.
Despite his age (he was 69) Weyl gave a detailed and enthusiastic account of all this work, which by combining geometry and analysis in the spirit of his own earlier work was very close to his heart.

A close tie between the department and the Japanese mathematical community was initiated by Kunihiko Kodaira, who spent four years at Johns Hopkins, 1950-51 and 1962-65, and who received the Fields Medal, the premier international prize in mathematics, in 1954.
Since the late 1950s, the department has entertained a steady flow of young Japanese mathematicians and students.
