Title
Philippe flajolet 1 december 1948-22 march 2011
Abstract
Philippe Flajolet, mathematician and computer scientist extraordinaire, the father of analytic combinatorics, suddenly passed away on 22 March 2011, at the prime of his career. He is celebrated for opening new lines of research in the analysis of algorithms, developing powerful new methods, and solving difficult open problems. His research contributions will have an impact for generations, and his approach to research, based on curiosity, discriminating taste, broad knowledge and interests, intellectual integrity, and a genuine sense of camaraderie, will serve as an inspiration to those who knew him, for years to come.
