Adriano Garsia
Adriano Mario Garsia is a Tunisian-born Italian American mathematician who works in combinatorics, representation theory, and algebraic geometry. He is a student of Charles Loewner and has published work on representation theory, symmetric functions and algebraic combinatorics. He is also the namesake of the Garsia–Wachs algorithm for optimal binary search trees, which he published with his student Michelle L. Wachs in 1977.
Born to Italian Tunisians in Tunis, Garsia moved to Rome in 1946.
he had 34 students and 152 descendants, according to the data at the Mathematics Genealogy Project, and was on the faculty of the University of California, San Diego.
In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.Books by A. Garsia
