was a mathematician who made important contributions to representation theory.
Career He received his degrees from the University of Tokyo and the University of Osaka and held permanent positions at the University of Osaka and Nagoya University. He had visiting positions at Princeton University, University of Illinois, and the University of Hamburg. Nakayama's lemma, Nakayama algebras, Nakayama's conjecture, and the Murnaghan–Nakayama rule are named after him.
