Anton Zorich ( Russian Антон Владимирович Зорич , transcription Anton Wladimirowitsch Soritsch; * around 1955-1960) is a Russian mathematician. Zorich received his doctorate from Sergei Petrovich Novikov at Lomonossow University . He is a professor at the University of Rennes I . Among other things, he was a visiting scientist at IHES and at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn.

He studied closed surfaces with a flat metric (which is possible regardless of the gender of the surface if one allows singular points of the metric), e.g. B. the behavior of geodesics on it with applications on certain related one-dimensional dynamic systems ( Interval Exchange Transformations ). A conjecture by Zorich and Kontsevich about Lyapunov exponents of the Teichmüller flow in the modular space of Abelian differentials on compact Riemann surfaces was solved by Marcelo Viana and Artur Avila .

In 2006 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid (subject: "Geodesics on flat surfaces").

He is not to be confused with his father Vladimir A. Zorich (* 1937), professor at Lomonossow University (author of an analysis textbook and Zorich's theorem).
