Mohammad Sal Moslehian


Mohammad Sal Moslehian is an Iranian mathematician and a professor of mathematics at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran. He is the President of the Iranian Mathematical Society for the period of 2021-2024 and an invited member of the Iranian Academy of Sciences. His Erdős number is 3. He is known for his contribution to the operator and norm inequality. He has developed the orthogonality in Hilbert C*-modules and has significant contributions to operator means. He established noncommutative versions of martingale and maximum inequalities that play an essential role in noncommutative probability spaces. In addition, he has written several expository papers discussing research and education, as well as promoting mathematics.

Education and career

Moslehian obtained his Ph.D. from the Ferdowsi University of Mashhad under the supervision of Professor Assadollah Niknam in 1999. His research areas include Functional Analysis and Operator Theory, specifically operator algebras and Hilbert C*-modules. He spent his sabbatical leave at the University of Leeds and Karlstad University in 2006 and 2015 respectively and was a Senior Associate Researcher at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP, Trieste) for the period of 2012-2017 and a non-resident researcher of the Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences during 2006–2007. He supervised more than 20 PhD students.
His most significant scientific-executive responsibilities are as follows:

Editorial board

He is the founder and the editor-in-chief of three mathematics journals: Banach Journal of Mathematical Analysis, Annals of Functional Analysis, and Advances in Operator Theory that are published by Springer Nature/Birkhäuser as well as being the editor-in-chief of the Bulletin of the Iranian Mathematical Society and the Newsletter of the Iranian Mathematical Society.
