George Glauberman

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

George Isaac Glauberman (born March 3, 1941 in New York City ) is an American mathematician who studies group theory (finite groups) and is a professor at the University of Chicago .

Glauberman studied at the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn with a bachelor's degree in 1961, at Harvard University with a master's degree in 1962 and received his doctorate in 1965 at the University of Wisconsin with Richard Hubert Bruck ( Fixed Point Sub-Groups that Contain Centralizers of Involution ). He then was initially an instructor at the University of Chicago , where he was given a full professorship in 1970.

In 1978/79 he was a Guggenheim Fellow at Oxford University, and from 1967 to 1969 he was a Sloan Research Fellow . In 2012 he became a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society . In 1970 he was invited to speak at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Nice ( Local and global properties of finite groups ).
