The Presidium of the Romanian Academy of Scientists announces with sorrow the passing away of Prof. Sorin G. Gal, corresponding member of the Romanian Academy of Scientists.
Expert in Real and complex analysis; Geometric theory of functions of hypercomplex variables; Functional analysis; Approximation theory; Evolution equations of complex spatial variables; Semigroups of operators and Fuzzy differential equations, Sorin G. Gal has written ten monographs published by prestigious publishers (Birkhäuser, Springer, World Scientific, Nova Sci. Publ., New York) and over 300 scientific papers highly appreciated by specialists. He had collaborations with mathematicians from the University of Memphis (Tennessee, USA), Politecnico di Milano, Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics in Budapest of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. He was a mathematical school creator and mentored many young people, including PhD students, in research.
According to his colleagues, he was by far the most valuable professor of the University of Oradea. He was a great man and an extraordinary colleague. Students appreciated him very much for the exceptional courses he taught.
It is a huge loss, not only for the University of Oradea, but for the entire academic community.
God rest his soul!
