Harry Dym
Harry Dym was an Israeli-American mathematician at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel. Dym's research interests included operator theory, interpolation theory, and inverse problems.
Dym earned his Ph.D. in 1965 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, under the supervision of Henry McKean.
He introduced the Dym equation, which bears his name.
