Victor Kac is a mathematician known for his work in the fields of mathematical physics, representation theory, and quantum groups. He has made significant contributions to the understanding of algebraic structures and their applications in theoretical physics, particularly in the context of symmetric spaces and integrable systems. Kac is perhaps best known for his work on Lie algebras and Kac-Moody algebras, which are generalizations of finite-dimensional Lie algebras.
