Academic biography

José Bonet graduated in Mathematics at the University of Valencia in 1977. In 1980 he defended his Ph.D. thesis in that University under the supervision of Professor Manuel Valdivia Ureña. Bonet was assistant in the University of Valencia from 1977 to 1983; between 1983 and 1987 he was associate professor, in the Polytechnic University of Valencia. Since 1987, Bonet is full professor in the Applied Mathematics Department at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. He was also Visiting Professor in the University of Paderborn, Germany in 1989 and in 2002. He had an Alexander Von Humboldt fellowship in Düsseldorf (1994), Paderborn (1995, 2008) and Eichstätt (2008, 2013, 2017); Germany.

He has been the Director of the institute of mathematics Instituto Universitario de Matemática Pura y Aplicada IUMPA ^[1] at the Polytechnic University of Valencia from 2004 until November 2016.

José Bonet has been Principal Investigator of several research projects of the Spanish Ministry of Education since 1988, integrated actions between Spain and Germany and between Spain and Italy, and of the project of excellence in research PROMETEO of the Generalitat Valenciana (2008–2012, 2013–2016, and 2017–2021).^[2] He also organized several international meetings on functional analysis.

He supervised fifteen Ph.D. thesis.^[3]
