Albert Schwarz

Schwarz is one of the pioneers of Morse theory and brought up the first example of a topological quantum field theory. Schwarz worked on some examples in noncommutative geometry. He is the "S" in the famous AKSZ model (named after Mikhail Alexandrov, Maxim Kontsevich, Schwarz, and Oleg Zaboronsky).

In 1990, Schwarz was an invited speaker of the International Congress of Mathematicians in Kyoto.
