Cédric Villani
![Villani in 2015](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/73/Cedric_Villani_at_his_office_2015_n3.jpg)
Villani has given two lectures at the Royal Institution, the first titled 'Birth of a Theorem'. The English translation of his book ''Théorème vivant'' (''Living Theorem'') has the same title. In the book he describes the links between his research on kinetic theory and the one of the mathematician Carlo Cercignani: Villani, in fact, proved the so-called Cercignani's conjecture.
His second lecture at the Royal Institution is titled 'The Extraordinary Theorems of John Nash'.
Villani was elected as the deputy for Essonne's 5th constituency in the National Assembly, the lower house of the French Parliament, during the 2017 legislative election. He was elected as a member of La République En Marche! (LREM), but in May 2020 left the party to form a new party, Ecology, Democracy, Solidarity (EDS). Following the dissolution of EDS, Villani joined Ecology Generation, and ran for re-election under the banner of the NUPES. He was elected vice president of the French Parliamentary Office for the Evaluation of Scientific and Technological Choices in July 2017.
He lost his seat in the 2022 French legislative election to La Republique En Marche! candidate Paul Midy by 19 votes. Provided by Wikipedia
