Mohamed Amine Khamsi is an American/Moroccan mathematician. He was born in Morocco in 1959. His research interests include nonlinear functional analysis, the fixed point theory and metric spaces. In particular, he has made notable contributions to the fixed point theory of metric spaces. He graduated from the prestigious Ecole Polytechnique in 1983 after attending the equally prestigious Lycée Louis-le-Grand in Paris France. He completed his PhD, entitled "La propriété du point fixe dans les espaces de Banach et les espaces Metriques", at the Universite Paris 6-Jussieu in May 1987 under the supervision of G. Godefroy. He then went on to visit University of Southern California and University of Rhode Island from 1987 to 1989. Since 1989 he has worked from the University of Texas at El Paso, as a full Professor of Mathematics since 1999.[1]
He is credited as one of the creators of the mathematics website S.O.S. Mathematics.
