Emilio Lluis Riera, Spanish-born Mexican geometer (Roquetas, September 1925-

ACHIEVEMENTS

Obtained classical results in algebraic geometry

Introduced strange varieties

Demonstrated that every variety of dimension without singularity may submerge itself in a projective space of dimension 2r+1 and by means of projections

Demonstrated that varieties with singularities may protrude in spaces of dimension less than or equal to a maximum of r+d+1 and 2r+1 being d the maximum dimensions of Zariski tangent spaces to variety

With H. Cardenas, A.G. Raggi-Cardenas  & R. san Agustín developed a diagram for the partial linear space T (Omega-Omega”)

Eponym of Bertini-Lluis theorem
