Sourav Chatterjee , (born November 26, 1979 in Kolkata ) is an Indian mathematician who deals with stochastics .

Chatterjee studied at the Indian Statistical Institute in Kolkata with a bachelor's degree in 2000 and a master's degree in 2002 and received her PhD from Stanford University with Persi Diaconis in 2005 (Concentration Inequalities with Exchangeable Pairs). In 2006 he became an assistant professor and an associate professor in 2009 at the University of California, Berkeley . He was also an Associate Professor at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences of New York University from 2009 to 2013 . In 2012 he was Visiting Associate Professor at Stanford University, where he has been a professor since 2013.

In 2008 he was visiting professor in Toulouse.

He developed ideas from Charles Stein (method von Stein or von Stein and Chen) and Jarl Waldemar Lindeberg for improved inequalities in the sense of Michel Talagrand (concentration inequalities) in probability theory with applications to spin glasses , random matrices and dimensional determination of high-dimensional data sets. He also deals with mathematical physics (including fluctuations in Bose-Einstein condensates ), random graphs and percolation theory .

In 2013 he received the Loève Prize , in 2012 the first Wolfgang Doeblin Prize, in 2008 the Tweedie Award of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics and in 2010 the Rollo Davidson Prize . From 2007 to 2009 he was a Sloan Fellow. In 2014 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Seoul (A short survey of Stein's method) and in 2012 at the International Congress of Mathematical Physics in Aalborg .

He has been co-editor of the Annals of Probability since 2009, of Probability theory and related fields since 2011 and of the Annales de l'Institut Henri Poincaré (Series B) from 2008 to 2013.
