Paola Loreti


Paola Loreti is an Italian mathematician, and a professor of mathematical analysis at Sapienza University of Rome.
She is known for her research on Fourier analysis, control theory, and non-integer representations. The Komornik–Loreti constant, the smallest non-integer base for which the representation of 1 is unique, is named after her and Vilmos Komornik.
Loreti earned a laurea from Sapienza University in 1984. Her dissertation, Programmazione dinamica ed equazione di Bellman was supervised by Italo Capuzzo-Dolcetta.
With Vilmos Komornik, Loreti is the author of the book Fourier Series in Control Theory.
