Michał Misiurewicz (born November 9, 1948 in Warsaw ) is a Polish mathematician.

Misiurewicz won the gold medal at the Mathematics Olympiad in 1966 and received his doctorate in 1974 at the University of Warsaw under Bogdan Bojarski on dynamic systems and ergodic theory . He is a professor at Purdue University .

Misiurewicz examined dynamic systems, especially the interval mapping. Here Misiurewicz points (also Misiurewicz-Thurston points) of the Mandelbrot set are named after him.

In 1983 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Warsaw ( One dimensional dynamical systems ). He is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society .
