Dr. Abdon Atangana

  

Abdon Atangana was born on October 1, 1985 in Elig-Mfomo, a commune in Central Cameroon. He did part of his studies in Cameroon at the Obala high school and then at the University of Yaoundé. 



Abdon Atangana is a professor of applied mathematics who teaches in South Africa. He became the youngest African mathematician to join the Clarivate Web of Science list . 




Prof. Atangana has made significant contributions to the field of mathematics, particularly in the areas of fractional calculus, fractional differential equations, and mathematical modelling.


 These allow us to model complex phenomena to solve real-life problems such as the spread of infectious diseases, heat transfer problems, groundwater flow and contamination or weather patterns.
He is one of the 5 recipients of the (UNESCO) AI Fozan International Prize for the Promotion of Young Scientists in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) in 2023. 






  He defended a PhD in applied mathematics at the Groundwater Studies Institute, University of the Free State, Bloemfontein in South Africa in 2013. He participated in creating a derivative named Atangana–Baleanu fractional derivates.



He is editor-in-chief or co-editor of more than twenty scientific journals in pure and applied mathematics. 








Professor Abdon ATANGANA wants to decolonize mathematics

Professor Abdon ATANGANA believes that Africa has had a glorious past in different fields (including science) and believes that it is time for this continent to regain its letters of nobility.


The one who was ranked as the 2nd greatest mathematician IN THE WORLD by STANFORD, wants to eliminate any inferiority complex towards the West and also considers that Africans do not necessarily need to leave their country (Africa) to be excellent and impact the world.


Although his name can now be placed next to scientists such as Einstein, Pythagoras, Thales, he believes that the recognition received so far throughout the world is now part of the past and believes that he is now focused on the future to accomplish his mission and have more impact!

 

Words marked by enormous humility when we know that Professor Abdon ATANGANA at 39 years old:


1- Is the 2nd greatest mathematician IN THE WORLD
2- Was the mathematician whose work was most cited IN THE WORLD in 2017
3- Is the first mathematician IN THE WORLD to obtain the TWAS prize awarded by the World Academy of Sciences
4- Is a member of the World Academy of Science as well as the African Academy of Science
5- Is the first international Unesco-AI FOZAN prize and the only mathematician IN THE WORLD to have had it
4- Has established a concept in mathematics that bears his name. A bit like the Pythagorean theorem :)
5- Has written more than 7 mathematical books
6- Is the author of more than 440 publications




In an interview he gave to Wonder Show, he stated that his objective is to bring together all the mathematicians on the African continent and work together and he wants to protect the works of young African inventors, so he proposes to open an edition house in Africa in the interest of all Africans. There are always people who are afraid of him because several researchers before him had many objectives similar to the pale ones, killed. Observers want to avoid dying like Professor Omotunde Kalala.

Liptako-Gourma of the Sahel

  - " Liptako-Gourma " is a cross-border region located at the crossroads of Mali , Burkina Faso , and Niger , in the heart of the Sahel . Covering 370,000 km², it stretches across arid and landlocked areas, crossed by the Niger River for 1,400 km. This region, characterized by a semi-arid climate, is historically rich but economically marginalized. The Sahara , meanwhile, is the world's largest hot desert, stretching 8.5 million km² across North Africa, from Morocco to Egypt , Algeria , Libya , and Niger.  It is a mosaic of landscapes, from dunes to rocky plateaus, where underground resources contrast with surface poverty.   - Liptako-Gourma Charter establishing the Alliance of Sahel States between Burkina Faso, the Republic of Mali, and the Republic of Niger. On September 16, 2023, three Sahel states—Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger—formed an alliance.

from BRIC to BRICS+

It was 4 countries to start with (bric) Brazil , Russia ,  India and China .... The term bric was coined by a Goldman Sachs investment bank economist named Jim O'Neill who first used it in a meeting he had with the group in 2001. Then they added South Africa as a country with rapid economic growth. This term first appeared in a note by Jim O'Neill, an economist at the investment bank Goldman Sachs, and was taken up again in a report published by two economists from the same bank.   The BRICS + is now a group of ten countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia , and Ethiopia—aiming to rival the Group of Seven .  The BRICs are high-growth countries whose weight in the global economy is increasing at the beginning of the 21st century.  The BRICS countries use their national currencies to trade among themselves to reduce the influence of the dollar in world trade so that the United States cannot use th...
