From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carlos Gustavo Tamm de Araújo Moreira (born 8 February 1973 in the city of Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian mathematician working on dynamical systems, ergodic theory, number theory and combinatorics. Moreira is currently a researcher at the Instituto Nacional de Matemática Pura e Aplicada (IMPA), where he goes by the nickname "Gugu".[1][2] He is also a member of the Brazilian Mathematical Olympiad Commission, a fanatic fan of the Brazilian football team Flamengo and a member of the Brazilian Communist Party (PCB). In October 2016, he achieved the mark of 5000 goals scored in his amateur football career. He maintains a record of his goals to show to the incredulous.

Moreira obtained his Ph.D. from IMPA under the supervision of Jacob Palis in 1993, at the age of 20.[2][3] He is a member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences since 2008.[1] In 2009 he was awarded the UMALCA Award for his contributions to mathematics.[2]

Moreira is the recipient of the TWAS Prize in Mathematics in 2010.[4] He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians of 2014 in Seoul, South Korea,[5][6] and a plenary speaker at the 2018 International Congress of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[7]
