Mohamed Amine Khamsi

Mohamed Amine Khamsi (born 1959 in Morocco) is an American/Moroccan mathematician known for his work in nonlinear functional analysis, the fixed point theory, and metric spaces. He has made notable contributions to the fixed point theory of metric spaces, particularly in developing the theory of modular function spaces and their applications in data science.

He graduated from the prestigious École Polytechnique in 1983 after attending the equally prestigious Lycée Louis-le-Grand in Paris, France. He completed his PhD, entitled "La propriété du point fixe dans les espaces de Banach et les espaces Métriques," at the Pierre-and-Marie-Curie University in May 1987 under the supervision of Gilles Godefroy. His early research laid the foundation for significant advances in fixed point theory.

Since 1989, Khamsi has been a faculty member at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), where he became a full professor of mathematics in 1999. During his tenure at UTEP, he was instrumental in reforming the Differential Equations course, significantly improving student success and retention.

Currently, Khamsi is a professor of mathematics at Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi, where his research continues to impact fields such as nonlinear analysis, fixed point theory, and their applications in optimization and data science. Provided by Wikipedia
