Corresponding Member of the Romanian Academy - 1974
Full Member of the Romanian Academy - 1990
Since 1992 - president of the Mathematical Section of the Romanian Academy
Chairman of the Commission of Functional analysis of the Romanian Academy
Publishing Activity
Almost 100 papers published in Romania and abroad dealing especially with
functional analysis
Published 14 books, among them:
- Ordered vector spaces and linear operators, Abacus Press, Kent, England
1976
- Topological vector spaces, Noordhoff I.P., Leyden, The Netherlands, 1977
- Applications of the theory of distributions (with G.Marinescu), John
Wiley, London, New York 1973)
- Order structures in normed linear spaces (in Romanian), Scientific
Publishing House, 1983.
- Notions of linear functional analysis, Romanian Academy Publishing House,
1998
His papers are concerned mainly with the following fields: topological
ordered vector spaces; linear and bilinear operator theory; vector integrals,
distributions theory and applications. He used for the first time in Romania
the ordered vector spaces in functional analysis and his book 'Ordered
linear spaces" (in Romanian) published in 1959 was the first monograph in
this field in Romania.
