'''Carlos Matheus Silva Santos''' (born May 1, 1984 in Aracaju) is a Brazilian mathematician working in dynamical systems, analysis and geometry. He is research director at the CNRS, in Paris.<ref name="homepage">[http://carlos.matheus.perso.math.cnrs.fr Carlos Matheus' homepage] at École polytechnique</ref>
He earned his Ph.D. from the Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada (IMPA) in 2004 under the supervision of Marcelo Viana,<ref>{{mathgenealogy|id=80140}}</ref> at the age of 19.<ref>Veja – [https://web.archive.org/web/20071121010457/http://veja.abril.com.br/280404/p_078.html Um sergipano de 19 anos é o mais jovem doutor em matemática do país] (by Jerônimo Teixeira, in Portuguese)</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.estadao.com.br/link/sergipano-de-19-anos-e-o-mais-novo-doutor-do-impa/|title=Sergipano de 19 anos é o mais novo doutor do Impa|website=Estadão|language=pt-br}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/fsp/ciencia/fe1704200403.htm|title=Folha de S.Paulo - Pura matemática: Doutor de 19 anos ainda precisa concluir seu curso de graduação - 17/04/2004|website=www1.folha.uol.com.br|language=pt-br}}</ref>
