प्रोफेसर यू बी तिवारी

Prof. UB Tewari

Prof. Tewari was my recitation instructor (tutor) for MTH101. I fondly remember him giving very elegant alternate solutions to homework problems in a way that made it seem like mathematics came so naturally to him, like a language. Although my interaction with him was limited to that tutorial, his simplicity, rigor and his sense of humor left a lasting impact on me and it formed a strong impression of the pure mathematics community at IIT Kanpur. He will be missed dearly. May he rest in peace.

The family

Deeply saddened to know that Prof. U. B. Tiwari has passed away. When I joined IIT Kanpur as a faculty member in 2001, UBT was head of the department. My introduction to profession was by UBT. Learnt so many things (of course, including mathematics) from him, heard so many stories and jokes while having 'Brijlal ki chaye' at the 6th floor of faculty building. Suddenly, old memories are rushing back...Rest in peace, Sir.

It is a great loss for many of us who grew up learning the subject under his mentorship. Prof. U B Tewari was a devoted academician. He was a simple and modest, but firm, person who accepted no nonsense in academics. He had the most refined taste for the subject and played a key role in building the department of Mathematics at the IIT Kanpur. The department, especially the Analysis group, flourished under his leadership and earned reputation globally. I pray the almighty to provide strength to his family and friends to bear the loss.

Heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of Prof Tewari who lost their loved one.

Very sorry and sad to learn about the untimely passing away of Professor U B Tewari, fondly known and called as UBT. Professor Tewari was an acknowledged Mathematician par excellence. He was well known in the academic fraternity for his intellectual pursuits and all over the place. He had developed and nurtured the Harmonic Analysis group in the department which is now visible as a school of many young and active researchers in this area and all over the place.
I had a fond association with UBT for more than three decades at IITK. A very warm and unassuming personality. He had the passion, urge, and appetite for quality research even in the later days. We all would miss him for a long time to come. A true Academician who would value academics in the right spirit, finesse, and all fairness.
My heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family. May his soul rest in peace!
